What colour kitchen paint for cupboards would you choose?
This project in Chislehurst, Kent was completed by our KPN south east partners and I am sure you will agree that the difference is huge! What started off it’s life as a wooden kitchen now looks completely different with the help of the Kitchen Painting Network and our specialist paints.
This kitchen, although installed quite a few years ago now, was structurally sound apart from a couple of the upper doors, which clients had re-made by a local carpenter. Once painted these matched in perfectly with the existing doors.
Clients reached out for a quote and once agreed we went over for a colour consultation. The colours chosen were Little Green French Grey No. 113 for the main units, with the Island spray painted in darker RAL 7022, which really makes it stand out.
Chislehurst, Kent - what Kitchen Paint for Cupboards?
The kitchen is often considered the heart of a home, and for many homeowners, it’s the most important space in the house. The kitchen is a space where we cook, eat, and gather with friends and family, so it’s essential to make it look as beautiful and welcoming as possible. One of the easiest ways to transform the look of your kitchen is by painting your cupboards.
Painting cupboards is a cost-effective way to update your kitchen without breaking the bank. But before you start painting, there are a few things to consider.
The first thing to consider when choosing kitchen paint for cupboards is the type of paint you want to use. There are several options available however you need to consider whether it is safe to use in your home. Some kitchen painters will try and use AC or PC paints but they are not suitable for use in occupied homes and can be harmful so do your research and ask questions before you agree to have a painted in your home.
Once you’ve decided on the type of paint you want to use, it’s time to choose a colour. White is a classic and timeless choice, but if you want to add some personality to your kitchen, consider bold colours like Hague Blue, Railings, or even Treron by Farrow and Ball. Before you choose a colour, it’s a good idea to test it out in your kitchen. Paint a small area and see how it looks in different lighting throughout the day.
When it comes to painting your cupboards leave that down to us, the experts. We use tried and tested paints specifically designed for kitchens and can colour match to most designer paints depending on the pricing option you choose. For us it’s all about the preparation and the primers we choose as in our experience and opinion: primer does all the work and top coat takes the glory!
One thing to keep in mind when painting cupboards is the time that it will take, so be prepared to have your kitchen out of commission for a few days but the end result is well worth the effort. It may be the perfect excuse to have a takeaway for a night however we will always leave you with the essentials like the fridge and oven at the end of the day. If you need more than that then you just have to let us know before we leave each day and we can organise it for you.
In conclusion, painting your cupboards is a great way to update your kitchen without spending a lot of money, and you can transform your kitchen into a beautiful and welcoming space. Just remember to choose the right painter to carry out the work and spend some time looking at colour options before committing.
