You have options in Ottawa when it comes to cabinet refinishing, but not every company offers the same level of skill, equipment, or care. If you want results that look new and hold up for years, you need more than someone with a paint sprayer. You need a refinisher with a proven track record, proper tools, and a controlled spray environment.

Below is a clear guide to help homeowners find true cabinet refinishing experts in Ottawa, along with real examples from our 25 years in the field.


What Real Cabinet Refinishing Looks Like in Ottawa

You’ll see a wide range of “cabinet painting” services in the city. Some are one-person operations working out of a garage. Others rely on brushes or inexpensive sprayers. Those options might save a little money upfront, but they rarely deliver a durable or professional finish.

A true cabinet refinishing expert offers:

  • A dedicated spray booth

  • Professional-grade spray systems

  • High-end primers and topcoats

  • A clean, dust-free environment

  • Experience working with Maple, Cherry, and other porous woods

  • A full process for doors, gables, and on-site components

That mix is what produces the sleek, factory-grade finish most homeowners expect.


Why Ottawa Homeowners Choose Our Team

Our company has been refinishing cabinets in Ottawa and surrounding areas for over 25 years. That experience shows in the quality of every project. We rely on top-tier products like Envirolak primers and coatings, combined with a Kremlin sprayer system and a dust-free spray booth. This setup gives you a strong, smooth, long-lasting finish—not something that chips, peels, or scratches within months.

We handle everything:

You get a complete solution that keeps your kitchen looking consistent and professionally done from top to bottom.


Serving Ottawa and Beyond

We complete projects across the city, including:

  • The Glebe

  • Old Ottawa East

  • Rockcliffe Park

  • Barrhaven

  • Nepean

  • Kanata

  • Stittsville

  • Kemptville

  • Orleans

  • Gloucester

  • Rockland

We also provide a door-drop-off service for clients from Kingston, Cornwall, Brockville, and beyond. If you can get the doors to us, we can take care of the rest.


What Our Transformations Look Like

Many homeowners bring us older Maple or Cherry kitchens—beautiful wood, but very porous and challenging to refinish correctly. With the right products, equipment, and steps, we turn them into bright, fresh, modern kitchens that look completely new.

Clients often tell us the transformation doesn’t even look like the same cabinetry. The crisp finish, smooth texture, and updated colour produce a major “wow” moment every time.


Common Mistakes When Choosing a Cabinet Refinisher

You can avoid frustration by watching for a few red flags:

Kitchens need a clean, controlled environment. Without it, dust, overspray, and poor curing lead to disappointing outcomes.


What to Look For in a True Expert

Before committing, ask the company:

  • Do you use a professional spray booth?

  • What primer and topcoat system do you use?

  • Are you licensed and insured?

  • How long have you been refinishing cabinets?

  • Can I see examples of your recent work?

When you compare options in Ottawa, you’ll notice our combination of experience, equipment, and product quality stands out. We’ve built our reputation on friendly service, clean job sites, and finishes that last for years.



What Clients Say About Working With Us

Clients regularly mention:

  • No loss of kitchen use during the project

  • Minimal disruption to daily life

  • A smooth, predictable process

  • A final result that exceeds expectations

  • A finish that looks and feels factory-made

They appreciate how organized and efficient the experience is from start to finish.



What Ottawa Homeowners Are Choosing Right Now

Most clients select from Benjamin Moore colours. White Dove, Chantilly Lace, and other soft whites remain popular, but we also complete bold pieces—from deep blues to rich greens and near-black tones. If it’s in the Benjamin Moore palette, we can match it.


Our Process and Why It Matters

Our system takes a bit longer than a quick “weekend painter,” but every step is there for a reason. Each layer is sprayed, cured, and allowed to set properly. That curing time is what gives cabinets their strength and long-term durability.

You get a finish that lasts—not something that needs touching up next year.
