Do-it-yourself projects can be a fun undertaking, and can also help you save money in many aspects. However, with that said, there are certain areas you don’t want to risk the chance of getting anything less than picture-perfect results.
The kitchen is one of those spaces, particularly the cabinets. While it may seem simple to apply a new coat of paint to cabinets yourself, there’s actually a lot that goes into the process—especially if you want to see good results.
Here are some of the most common mistakes we see—and correct—when it comes to cabinet painting in Royal Palm Beach.
- Choosing the wrong color for your space. Steer towards choosing a more neutral, versatile color that will transition well through the years both for you and for buyers in the future. You can’t go wrong with soft whites, grays, or beiges. With that said, if you love color, this isn’t something you have to sacrifice. Implement it instead in less permanent ways, like with accent decor, cabinet hardware, furniture, curtains, or rugs.
- Not planning adequately for time. As much as you’d like for it to be a day or weekend project, cabinet painting in Royal Palm Beach requires significantly more of a time commitment if you plan to do it yourself. Expect your kitchen to be out of commission for at least a week or more. On the flip side, the right team of professionals can knock out your project significantly faster.
- Not cleaning and prepping the surface properly. This is a step that a lot of DIYers rush through or skip. Before painting, it’s crucial to remove grease and buildup on cabinets that can interfere with the paint and finish going on smoothly.
- Dismissing the square footage of your space. It’s important to work with, not against, the existing square footage of your kitchen. Keep in mind that dark shades can make small kitchens feel tighter, while lighter colors can make them feel more spacious.
- Not using the right type of primer and paint. Remember, never skip the important step of priming before painting. It’s also important to use an acrylic-polyurethane blend on cabinets—not latex paint intended for use on walls.
