What Makes Kitchen Painting in Berkeley Harder Than It Looks
Berkeley kitchens see a lot of cooking traffic near the Eisenhower and Mannheim corridors. The grease film that builds up on walls and cabinets won't let new paint stick. And those older ranch homes have plaster that moves with the seasons. Our crews know these surfaces. Same approach we use on every cabinet painting job in the area.
Grease stops paint from bonding
We degrease walls and cabinets with a cleaner that cuts through cooking film. No bond, no paint.
Cabinet doors have many surfaces
Frames, panels and edges all need sanding and priming. Spraying gives that flat, smooth finish.
Plaster cracks around windows
Older homes near the expressway have shifting plaster. We bridge cracks so they don't reopen after paint dries. See our wall painting process.
Dark colours need extra coverage
Going from dark to light takes tinted primer plus two coats. We don't skip the primer to save time.
Moisture ruins cheap paint
Kitchens need scrubbable, moisture-resistant paint. Flat paint holds steam and wipes off. We don't use it.
Old gloss is too shiny for new paint
Oil-based enamel on cabinets needs scuff sanding and bonding primer. See our cabinet painting process.

A Berkeley Kitchen Crew, Not a Call Centre
We're based in Broadview, right down the street from Berkeley, so when you call about a kitchen off St. Charles Road or the side streets near the railroad tracks, you're talking to the crew that will be working in your kitchen. Berkeley houses have the mid-century ranches with original oak cabinets, the bungalows with compact kitchens, and the newer builds near the forest preserves that need moisture-resistant paint. We know them all.
That same crew covers the neighbouring suburbs too, from Hillside and Westchester to Broadview, Maywood and Forest Park. Same crew, same prep, same price list.

Kitchen Painting for Berkeley Houses, Rentals and Flips
One crew, three kinds of kitchen jobs. Whether it's your family kitchen, a rental unit, or a flip you're about to list, the prep and the finish are the same.
Family kitchens
Ranches, bungalows and two-flats across Berkeley. We paint walls, cabinets, trim and ceilings. Combine with room painting if you're doing the whole house. Neighbours in Hillside and Westchester book the same package.
Rental kitchens
Turnover kitchens get degreased, patched, primed and painted fast. Most units are done in two days. We handle touch-up painting between tenants and full repaints for new leases. Same setup in Broadview and Maywood.
Flips and home sales
Kitchens sell houses. We paint your kitchen for listing photos or showing day. Add house painting for a full property refresh. Contractors in North Riverside and La Grange use us the same way.
We also run kitchen work across the rest of the western suburbs and out into Cook County:
How We Paint a Berkeley Kitchen, Step by Step
Most of the work that decides how a kitchen paint job looks in two years happens before any colour goes on. Here's the order we do it in.
Walk the kitchen with you
We look at every wall, cabinet face, and trim run, then write the price down. No charge.
Choose your colours
Sample chips on your actual wall, checked in daylight and kitchen light before anything is ordered.
Empty and cover
Cabinets emptied, counters covered, floors sheeted, switch plates removed and bagged.
Degrease and sand
Walls and cabinets scrubbed of cooking residue, then sanded for paint adhesion.
Prime the problem spots
Stains blocked, bare spots sealed, tinted primer used over dark colours.
Ceilings first, then walls
We work top down so drips land on unpainted surfaces instead of finished walls.
Cabinet doors sprayed
Doors and drawer fronts painted with a spray rig for a smooth, factory-like finish. Frames brushed.
Reassemble and inspect
Plates back on, counters cleared, floors swept, then you walk it and we fix anything.
The Kitchen Painting Problems Berkeley Homeowners Call Us About
Almost every call starts with one of these. Here's what's actually going on, and what your kitchen looks like once we're done.
Greasy, yellowed kitchen walls
Cooking film builds up and regular paint won't cover it. We degrease, prime, and put on a washable finish. Same treatment on kitchen walls.
Peeling cabinets with sticky doors
Old lacquer and grease make cabinets peel. We degrease, scuff sand, prime and spray for a smooth finish.
A kitchen you can actually wipe down
Scrubbable paint on walls, smooth spray finish on cabinets. A clean look and easy maintenance.
Your kitchen back the same day
Low-odour paint means you use your kitchen that night. No fumes, no lingering paint smell.
