cabinet painting summerville sc

When planning your home renovation, sometimes the smallest rooms can feel the most difficult to tie together.  Your bathroom space may be small, but there is an opportunity for a big impact!  That is where N-Hance comes in with cabinet painting in Summerville, SC.

Here are a few rules of thumb to keep in mind when choosing your bathroom cabinet paint color

  1. Size

The first thing to think about is how big (or small) your bathroom is, and how much natural light you will have in the space.  The size and layout or flow of your bathroom will have a significant effect on which cabinet color will look best.  Remember that dark cabinets can make a space feel smaller, while light cabinets can open up a small room and make it feel larger.

  1. Flooring

Because flooring is more of a permanent feature, you will want to work with your existing flooring color to coordinate your new cabinet color.  Keep contrast in mind, like dark espresso floors with white or cream cabinets.  

  1. Countertops

Granite, quartz, and concrete are all common countertop materials.  Most countertops have flecks of several colors in them, so make sure to choose a cabinet color that matches.

  1. Wall Color

Think about coordinating your new cabinet color with your current or future wall color.  If you end up changing your mind, the good news is that painting walls is an easy change that you can make at any time.

5. Go With A Classic Color 

Can’t decide?  Go with a classic cabinet stain or a neutral color like cream or white.  These versatile shades pair well with lots of decor options, design styles, and accents.

6. Don’t Be Afraid To Go Bold

Going for a more modern feel?  Don’t be afraid to try a bold, bright color.  This can often be pulled off well in a bathroom rather than a larger area like a kitchen.

7. Keep The Paint Sheen In Mind 

Most paints come in an eggshell finish, but you may also consider a satin or gloss. 

8. Be Mindful Of The Future 

You may not have plans to sell your home in the near future, but you may want to be aware of how the colors you choose could impact future buyers.  Steer toward neutral shades like ivory or a deep wood stain that apply to a wide range of preferences and styles.

9. Stay Consistent With The Style Of Your Home

You will want to stay true to the style throughout the rest of your home so that your bathroom matches and is cohesive with your aesthetic.

10. Go With What You Love 

Keep the above tips in mind, but when it really comes down to it, choose what you love. Use design rules as guidelines but don’t be afraid to get creative. What matters most is that you love the end result, and N-Hance can help you get there.
