Do your kitchen cabinets appear outdated or scratched? Have you attempted a DIY paint job that didn’t meet your expectations? No need to worry; N-Hance of Southeast Nebraska is here to assist with repainting your kitchen cabinets. We specialize in turning lackluster, worn, or out-of-style cabinets into a rejuvenated and fashionable appearance that you’ll adore. Additionally, we can rectify any errors from previous cabinet painting endeavors, such as brush strokes, drip marks, and other imperfections.
Some common issues that homeowners seek our help with include:
Problem #1: Leaving the Doors On
You might have considered painting your cabinets with the doors still in place for convenience, but this approach can result in a messy and less-than-perfect final outcome. Maneuvering around the hinges can be challenging and often leads to a less-than-ideal finish, including drip marks and imperfections.
N-Hance takes away these concerns. We’ll expertly remove the drawer fronts and cabinet doors, transporting them to our workshop to achieve a smooth, factory-quality finish. This eliminates the possibility of haphazard errors, ensuring you a professional result without any complications.
Problem #2: Not Taking Time to Adequately Prep
Effective preparation is crucial when it comes to repainting kitchen cabinets, but achieving this correctly can be a challenge without professional expertise. Inadequate preparation can significantly impact the cabinets’ final appearance and durability, making them prone to chipping and peeling shortly after painting. It can also accentuate scratches and other flaws once the cabinets are repainted.
With N-Hance, we prioritize meticulous and proper preparation. We employ a proprietary solution to thoroughly clean your cabinets, eliminating grease, grime, and residue. This establishes a pristine surface for the application of the new finish. Additionally, we address any existing damage and apply a specialized cabinet primer to enhance adhesion. This primer ensures the paint adheres effectively to the cabinets, preventing stains and bleedthrough.
Problem #3: Applying a Thick Layer of Paint
Opting for a single, thick layer of paint on your cabinets may appear to expedite the process, but it can actually render your cabinets more susceptible to scratches, peeling, chipping, and other imperfections. The recommended approach involves applying multiple thin coats of paint to establish a robust surface capable of withstanding daily wear and tear.
N-Hance employs cabinet-specific paint designed to endure heavy-duty use and regular cleaning while retaining its exceptional appearance. Once you’ve selected your preferred color, our skilled craftsmen will meticulously apply it to your cabinets, ensuring an even application that results in a flawless and durable finish.
Problem #4: Not Letting Cabinets Dry Long Enough
DIY kitchen cabinet painting can be a time-consuming endeavor, involving waiting periods between each paint coat and before the reinstallation of cabinet components. For the best results, the final curing process may extend over several weeks. Rushing any of these steps could lead to unsightly issues like smudges, chips, and signs of wear on your cabinets.
At N-Hance, we employ an exclusive system known as Lightspeed® Nano to expedite the cabinet curing process instantly using UV light. Following the cabinet painting process, we apply a clear topcoat and cure it within seconds. This reduced downtime not only delivers a quicker turnaround but also results in a more robust and enduring finish.
Problem #5: The Wrong Color
If you’re dissatisfied with your current cabinet color or it’s become outdated, N-Hance offers a solution. We provide a selection of 12 popular and proven colors for you to choose from. If you have a different color preference, you can bring in a sample, and we’ll match it.
It’s important to note that repainting your kitchen cabinets won’t address structural problems. For instance, if your cabinets are warping, repainting won’t reverse the issue. While it might temporarily conceal the problem, a full cabinet replacement is usually a more cost-effective solution in these rare cases. This ensures you can have new cabinets that not only look great but also have a longer lifespan.
