Kitchen Cabinet Refinishing Before & After — Richmond VA Projects

Nothing communicates the impact of professional cabinet refinishing better than before and after examples. Over 20 years in Richmond, VA, PA Painting has transformed hundreds of kitchens — turning dark, dated, or worn cabinets into bright, modern showpieces.

One of our most striking recent transformations involved a Short Pump kitchen with original 1990s golden oak cabinets. The homeowner wanted a fresh, modern look without the cost of replacement. We refinished all cabinet doors and drawer fronts in Sherwin-Williams Extra White and painted the island in Benjamin Moore Hale Navy. The result was a two-tone kitchen that looked completely renovated.

In a Midlothian split-level, we transformed dark cherry-stained cabinets to a soft sage green — the homeowners' bold choice that paid off beautifully. The sage green paired with their existing white subway tile and butcher block island created a warm, earthy kitchen that generated multiple compliments from neighbors and visitors.

A Church Hill client chose a bright white refresh for their townhouse kitchen before listing. The $2,800 refinishing project contributed to a sale at above asking price within two weeks on market. Their real estate agent specifically noted the kitchen as a selling point in buyer feedback.

Every cabinet refinishing project at PA Painting follows the same meticulous process: full disassembly, degreasing, sanding, priming where needed, and two to three coats of professional spray enamel. The finish is smooth, durable, and indistinguishable from new factory-painted cabinetry. Call (804) 980-6499 to schedule your free Richmond estimate.
