Cabinet Painting & Refinishing in St. Charles, IL
A Beautiful, Durable Cabinet Finish Without the Cost of New Cabinets
Cabinet Painting – A New Kitchen Without the Renovation
Kitchen cabinet painting is the fastest way to update your kitchen without a full remodel. We've transformed hundreds of kitchens in Saint Charles by painting tired oak or maple cabinets in fresh modern colors. White and gray are still the most popular but we're seeing more green and navy requests lately.
Our cabinet refinishing and painting process takes about a week. We remove all doors and hardware, prep every surface, spray multiple coats, and reinstall everything. Cabinet door spraying gives you that smooth factory finish that brushwork just cant match.
We also handle built-in shelving painting throughout your home. Those bookshelves in the living room or the built-ins in your office can look brand new with fresh paint.
Say Goodbye to Peeling Paint, Brush Marks, and DIY Headaches
Most homeowners worry cabinet painting will look cheap, chip quickly, or end up uneven. And they're right—when it's done by painters who rush, skip prep, or treat cabinets like wall painting.
We’re the opposite.
When you hire Stellar Painting, you get:
Cabinets protected and prepped the right way
A clean, dust-controlled work environment
Durable coatings designed for kitchen and bathroom surfaces
Crews who communicate clearly and treat your home with respect
Because when cabinet painting is done correctly, it feels like you replaced your cabinets entirely.
