An interior kitchen cabinet repair and repaint project involves several detailed steps to restore and refresh the cabinets’ appearance and functionality. Here’s a summary of the process:

Initial Assessment and Planning

1. Consultation: The project begins with a consultation to understand the homeowner’s preferences, including color choices and desired finishes.
2. Assessment: A thorough inspection of the cabinets is conducted to identify any damages, such as scratches, dents, loose hinges, or structural issues.

Preparation

3. Clearing the Area: The kitchen area is cleared, and protective coverings are placed over countertops, appliances, and flooring to protect them from dust and paint.
4. Removing Hardware: Cabinet doors and drawers are removed along with all hardware, such as handles and hinges, to ensure a smooth and comprehensive repaint.

Repair Work

5. Surface Repair: Any damages, such as scratches or dents, are repaired using wood filler or other suitable materials. Loose hinges and handles are tightened or replaced.
6. Sanding: All surfaces, including doors, drawers, and cabinet frames, are sanded to remove the old finish and create a smooth base for painting.

Priming and Painting

7. Cleaning: After sanding, all surfaces are cleaned to remove dust and debris.
8. Priming: A high-quality primer is applied to ensure proper paint adhesion and to cover any previous colors or stains.
9. Painting: Once the primer is dry, the cabinets are painted with the chosen color, typically applying two coats for an even and durable finish. Paint is applied using brushes, rollers, or sprayers, depending on the cabinet style and desired finish.

Reassembly and Finishing Touches

10. Reassembly: Once the paint is fully dry, cabinet doors and drawers are reattached. New or cleaned hardware is installed.
11. Detailing: Any touch-ups or fine detailing is completed to ensure a polished look.

Final Inspection and Clean-Up

12. Inspection: A final inspection is conducted with the homeowner to ensure satisfaction with the repair and repainting work.
13. Clean-Up: The work area is thoroughly cleaned, removing all protective coverings and debris, leaving the kitchen neat and ready for use.
