What Makes Cabinet Painting Harder Than It Looks in Arlington Heights Kitchens
A lot of Arlington Heights homes have oak or maple cabinets with decades of cooking grease, wear, and outdated stain. Painting over that without proper prep is why so many DIY jobs peel or look streaky within months. Our crews handle these cabinets every week, the same way we do on our kitchen painting jobs across the county.
Grease stops paint from sticking
Kitchen cabinets collect a greasy film that regular cleaner won't remove. We degrease with TSP before sanding so the primer bites.
Old oil finish rejects water-based paint
Oak and maple from the 90s were sealed with oil. We use a bonding primer first. See our primer coating page for how we handle it.
Brush marks show on flat panels
Rolling or brushing a flat cabinet door leaves ridges. We spray doors flat for a finish that looks factory-made.
Drawer slides and hinges get gummed up
Paint overspray ruins drawer action. We remove everything or mask it tight, then reassemble after it dries.
Dark stains bleed through light paint
Oak's natural tannins and old stain colours will bleed if not sealed. We use a stain-blocking primer that traps it.
Laminate won't take paint without etching
Laminated cabinets need a special bonding primer and light scuffing. We etch them first, like our wallpaper removal prep work.

An Arlington Heights Cabinet Crew, Not a Call Centre
We're based in Broadview, but Arlington Heights is one of our most requested northwest suburbs. When you call about a kitchen off Dundee Road or near the train station, you're talking to the people who will be stripping and spraying your cabinet doors. We know the housing stock here: the big 70s and 80s colonials with oak kitchens, the newer subdivisions with flat slab cabinets, and the condos near downtown that need a fresh look.
That same crew covers the neighbouring suburbs too, from Schaumburg and Palatine across to Buffalo Grove, Mt. Prospect and Rolling Meadows. Same crew, same prep, same price list.

Cabinet Painting for Arlington Heights Houses, Condos and Commercial Spaces
One crew, three kinds of jobs. Whether it's your personal kitchen, a rental unit, or a retail space, the prep and the finish are the same.
Homes and condos
Single-family houses and townhome kitchens across Arlington Heights. We paint cabinets alone or combine it with kitchen painting, bathroom painting, and basement painting. Neighbours in Schaumburg and Palatine book the same package.
Offices and retail
Reception desks, break room cabinets, and retail display units. We work after hours so you don't close, and we handle larger sites through our commercial interior painting and office painting teams. Same setup in Mt. Prospect and Rolling Meadows.
Landlords and turnovers
Turnovers are our fastest cabinet work. Doors and drawers sprayed in our mobile rig, frames brushed on site. Most kitchens are done in three days. Add touch-up painting before a listing, or a full house painting package before a sale. Property managers in Chicago and Elmwood Park use us the same way.
We also run cabinet work across the rest of the county and out into the collar suburbs:
How We Paint Arlington Heights Cabinets, Step by Step
The difference between a cabinet finish that lasts and one that chips in a year is all in the prep and spraying. Here's the order we do it in, every single time.
Walk the kitchen with you
We look at every door, drawer and frame, then write the price down. No charge, no pressure.
Lock the colour and sheen
Sample chips on your actual cabinet door, checked in kitchen light at different times of day.
Empty and dismantle
Drawers emptied, doors unscrewed, hinges and pulls bagged and labelled by location.
Degrease and sand
Every surface washed, then sanded to rough up the old finish for primer.
Stain-blocking primer coat
Oil or shellac primer applied to block tannins, old colour, and grease residue.
Spray the doors and drawers
All doors and drawer fronts laid flat and sprayed in a dust-controlled area.
Brush the frames
Cabinet frames, sides and trim brushed by hand to match the sprayed finish.
Rehang and inspect
Doors back on, hinges adjusted, pulls installed, then you walk it and we fix anything.
The Cabinet Painting Problems Arlington Heights 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.
Sticky, greasy cabinets that won't clean
Years of cooking grease have turned the wood gummy. We degrease with TSP and sand them back to bare wood in spots. Same treatment on kitchen walls.
Yellowed white cabinets from the 90s
Oil-based white paint yellows over time. We prime with stain-blocker and spray fresh white that stays bright. We also handle yellowed ceilings.
Cabinets that look new, not just painted
Smooth sprayed finish, no brush marks, no streaks. The kind of kitchen where the cabinets are the main feature.
Your kitchen back the same day we finish
Doors rehung, drawers aligned, hardware polished. Low-odour paint means you cook in the room that night.
