Cabinet refinishing
Cabinet painting and refinishing in Northern Virginia.
When the layout works and the cabinets are sound, refinishing can update the kitchen without replacing every cabinet. We inspect the existing material and coating, define the preparation, and coordinate the finish with your counters, flooring and hardware.

Practical answers before you commit.
Is refinishing the same as replacing cabinets?+
No. Refinishing retains suitable existing cabinets and changes their finish. Replacement changes the cabinetry itself. We review condition and goals before recommending the scope.
Can I see cabinets HOM has refinished?+
Yes. Our Newington, Springfield and Crosspointe, Fairfax Station case studies show documented cabinet refinishing projects with preparation and finished photographs.
Can you also replace my countertops?+
Yes. Cabinet refinishing and countertop replacement can be scoped together. We coordinate measurements, material availability and the order of work before confirming the schedule.
How much does cabinet refinishing cost in Northern Virginia?+
Door and drawer counts, exposed panels, condition, preparation, finish system and hardware work affect the estimate. Cabinet interiors and replacement components should be identified separately. HOM reviews your kitchen and provides a written scope rather than applying a one-size-fits-all kitchen price.
How long does cabinet refinishing take, and can I use the kitchen?+
Preparation, the number of components and the selected coating determine the work schedule. Installation-ready and fully cured are different milestones. We discuss access to appliances and the sink, then explain when doors can be handled and cleaned according to the selected finish system.
