Cabinets · New OrleansWhat is included
At Big Easy Painters, cabinet work is a preparation job before it is a painting job: kitchen grease has to come off, and the surface has to be keyed. Doors come off, get labelled, and go back where they came from.
Taken off, labelled, and refitted to the opening they came from.
The parts that stay put, cut in by hand around the openings.
Kitchen grease stops primer keying, so it comes off first.
Wood, MDF and laminate each take a different primer.
Handles, hinges and catches removed rather than painted around.
The same process in a room with more moisture and less airflow.
Why us
Because the boxes are usually sound and it is the doors that look tired. The finish is what you touch every day, so the preparation matters.
Fully covered in Louisiana, on every job we take on.
Scope, preparation, product and price before we start. No verbal numbers.
Degreasing is written into the scope. Primer over grease lifts later.
Hinges and handles come off, so there is no ridge of paint around them.
We work in stages and agree which runs are off limits each day.
Every door is labelled, so it returns to its own opening.
On the job
Doors, drawer fronts and carcasses, finished and refitted. These are kitchens where the boxes stayed and the doors came back the same day they went off.
Process
Four steps: you book a visit, we look at the cabinets, you get a written estimate, then the doors come off and the work starts.
Call or send the form. We agree a time and confirm it beforehand.
We check the material, the condition and how the doors sit.
Scope, preparation, product and price, in writing.
Doors off and labelled, degreased, primed, finished, refitted.
What people say

Questions
Whether painted cabinets last, what happens to the kitchen while we work, and which materials take paint.
It lasts when the preparation is done: degreased, sanded, primed with the right product for the material, then finished. Where cabinet paint fails early, it is almost always because the grease or the primer step was skipped.
Yes, with a bonding primer made for a non-porous surface. We check what your doors are made of at the walk-through, because it decides the products in the estimate.
In most homes, yes. We work in stages, take the doors away from the room where we can, and agree with you each day which runs are out of use.
It depends on the doors, the finish you want and where the work can be done. The estimate says which method is going on yours rather than leaving it open.
Yes. Painting around hardware leaves a ridge and traps paint in the moving parts, so it comes off and goes back on afterwards.
They should. Every door is labelled so it returns to its own opening, and the hinges are refitted rather than painted in place.
Yes. Bring the color or the code to the walk-through and we will talk through how it reads in your kitchen's light before it is ordered.
