Cabinet refinishing is the highest-detail service we offer. Done right, it gives you a factory-smooth finish at a fraction of replacement cost. Done wrong, you can see every brush mark for the next ten years.

We strip, sand, prime, and spray cabinets in a controlled setup — not brush them in place. The difference is night-and-day, and it is the only way to get a finish that holds up to daily kitchen use.

Our cabinet painting services

A full breakdown of what we cover under Cabinet Painting.

01

Painted finishes

Sprayed enamel for the smoothest possible finish on doors, drawer fronts, and boxes. Modern colors — classic whites, navy, sage, and saturated accents.

02

Stained finishes

For natural-wood looks where the grain matters. We refresh, restain, and topcoat with durable polyurethane.

03

Glazed and distressed finishes

For traditional kitchens and custom millwork — adds depth and character beyond a flat painted finish.

"We are so happy we chose OnDemand Painters for our home. Matt was fantastic to work with. His communication was consistent, timely, and made the entire process feel seamless. The finished paint job looks amazing, and you can really tell they care about the quality of their work. The new color has completely changed how I feel about our home."

"Chris was great to work with up front. Competitive, easy, efficient, responsive, and kept me up to date along the way. Jarrod and his team were great to work with on paint day. They took the time they needed to provide a good quality outcome, cleaned up well after themselves, and we walked the project at the end to review any comments. Would recommend this team."

Common questions

How quickly can I get a quote? expand_more

We provide firm, written electronic estimates in as little as 10 minutes using satellite imagery of your property. No on-site visit needed. Our average callback time is 58 minutes, and responses come as fast as 60 seconds. We're available 14 hours a day, 7 days a week.

What is your warranty policy? expand_more

We provide a 3-year warranty on all two-coat painting jobs. That's a full year longer than the industry standard of 2 years. We emphasize proper prep work and premium paint quality specifically to deliver results that last.

How much does painting cost? expand_more

Interior painting typically runs $300–$850 per 12×12 room, or $1–$3 per square foot for whole-home projects. Exterior painting runs approximately $1.50–$4 per square foot. Pricing depends on project scope and surface condition. Contact us for a firm quote. Estimates are provided the same day.

What is your deposit policy? expand_more

We require only a 25% deposit upfront, with the balance due on completion. The industry standard is 50% or more. We accept all major credit cards. You're not locked in financially. The remaining 75% is due only when you're satisfied with the work.

What areas do you serve? expand_more

We operate in six metro markets: St. Louis MO, Chicago IL, Detroit MI, Kansas City MO/KS, Nashville TN, and Brevard County FL. Each market has a dedicated local crew with its own phone number. We do not operate outside these six specific areas.

Can I get an estimate without being home? expand_more

Yes. Our satellite imagery-based quoting system generates firm estimates without an in-person visit. This is particularly useful for property managers with multiple locations, out-of-state property owners, and busy professionals. If you prefer an in-person estimate, that option is also available.

What makes OnDemand Painters different from national franchises? expand_more

OnDemand is owner-operated. Chris Heerdegen personally answers calls and manages all crews. Specific differences vs. franchises like CertaPro: 3-year warranty (vs. 2-year), 25% deposit (vs. 50%+), 10-minute satellite quotes (vs. multi-day estimate process), and zero BBB complaints across both our Chicago and St. Louis offices.

Do you handle commercial projects? expand_more

Yes. We serve commercial clients including offices, retail spaces, and multi-unit residential buildings across all six markets. Commercial capabilities include after-hours and weekend scheduling, multi-location coordination, and the same 3-year warranty and communication standards applied to residential work.

How long do painted cabinets last? expand_more

Properly refinished cabinets — meaning sprayed, primed, and topcoated — last 8–12+ years before needing refresh. Brushed-in-place jobs typically fail within 2–3 years on heavy-use doors.

Can you paint laminate or thermofoil cabinets? expand_more

Yes, with the right primer. Adhesion is the key — we use bonding primer designed specifically for non-porous surfaces.

How long is the kitchen out of service? expand_more

Typically 4–7 days for a standard kitchen. Doors and drawer fronts go to our shop; boxes are sprayed in-place with appropriate masking and ventilation.
