Affordable, High-Quality Cabinet Painting, Refacing, and Refinishing Solutions
Your kitchen is one of the most lived-in and loved spaces in your home. It’s where memories are made, meals are shared, and guests often gather. But if your cabinets are outdated, worn down, or simply don’t reflect your style, it can affect the entire look and feel of your home. Replacing cabinets can be costly and time-consuming—but that’s where West Hartford Finishing comes in.
With professional cabinet painting, refacing, and refinishing services, you can breathe new life into your kitchen at a fraction of the cost of a full remodel. West Hartford Finishing has built a solid reputation for delivering high-quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and personalized service that saves homeowners time and money while dramatically improving their kitchens and bathrooms.
Why Replace When You Can Refinish or Repaint?
Before diving into the services offered, let’s tackle a common question: why not just replace your cabinets?
Here’s the truth—cabinet replacement is expensive. According to national averages, a full cabinet replacement in a medium-sized kitchen can range anywhere from $10,000 to $25,000 or more, depending on materials and labor. That’s not including the time and disruption of a major remodel.
Cabinet painting, refinishing, and refacing offer a smarter solution:
Save thousands of dollars
Avoid major construction mess
Customize the look to match your style
Get results in a matter of days—not weeks
Let’s break down each service West Hartford Finishing offers and show you how to get the beautiful kitchen or bathroom you’ve always wanted.

Cabinet Refinishing Services
Cabinet refinishing is a fantastic choice if you love the natural wood look but want to restore its original beauty. Over time, even high-quality wood cabinets can become dull, scratched, or worn. West Hartford Finishing’s refinishing services bring back the rich, vibrant grain of your cabinets while updating the overall aesthetic.
What is Cabinet Refinishing?
Refinishing involves restoring the original wood cabinet doors and boxes. The process includes:
Deep cleaning and sanding to remove old stain or finish.
Repairs for scratches, dings, and wear.
Stain or clear coat application to enhance and protect the wood.
Sealing with topcoat to resist moisture and daily wear.
If you love the natural look of wood and want to maintain that warm, timeless appeal, refinishing is your best option.
Benefits of Cabinet Refinishing:
Preserves the beauty of real wood
Less expensive than replacing or refacing
Revives dull or damaged cabinetry
Brings out the grain and character of the wood
Durable and long-lasting with proper care
Whether you have oak, maple, cherry, or another wood type, West Hartford Finishing can revive it with precision and care.
Cabinet Refacing Services
If your cabinet boxes are in good shape but the doors are outdated or damaged, refacing is a smart middle-ground option. It’s more affordable than full replacement but offers a total visual transformation.
What’s Included in Cabinet Refacing?
Removal of old cabinet doors and drawer fronts
Installation of new, custom-built doors and drawer fronts
Application of matching veneers or laminates to cabinet boxes
Installation of new hardware (handles, knobs, hinges)
You get the look of brand-new cabinets—without tearing out the existing structure.
Why Consider Cabinet Refacing?
Customize your door style and finish (shaker, raised panel, modern flat front, etc.)
Choose your wood type or finish
Upgrade your cabinet hardware
Save thousands over new cabinet installation
Minimal downtime and disruption
Whether you want a sleek, modern look or a more traditional design, West Hartford Finishing can create a custom look that fits your vision and budget.
