How much does cabinet painting cost?

Painting prices by cabinet type

A face frame is the frame on the front of the cabinet box. The total painting price for a cabinet with a face frame is $210. That’s $30 more per cabinet than the $180 frameless price.

Count each drawer cabinet as one cabinet. The $250 rate covers the cabinet as a unit rather than charging for each drawer separately. If you’re unsure which category fits, send photos and Alex will help you count.

A 10-cabinet budget example

• 6 standard frameless cabinets × $180 = $1,080
• 2 cabinets with face frames × $210 = $420
• 2 drawer cabinets × $250 = $500

Example total: $2,000. This is a planning example. Your estimate will confirm the cabinet count and the work included for your kitchen.

Make the scope clear

Tell Alex which parts you want painted: doors, drawer fronts, cabinet frames, visible sides or trim. Include close-ups of peeling finish, chips or other damage so those areas can be discussed before work begins.

The written estimate should spell out the surfaces and work included. See how we prepare and paint cabinets.

New doors have a separate price

Painting keeps the door style you have and changes the finish. Replacement doors and drawer fronts are priced according to the model and material you choose.

If you’re weighing both options, read our guide to cabinet painting and door replacement.
