A fresh and modern kitchen is a significant selling point for homebuyers, and just painting your kitchen or worktops can help you attract more potential buyers and sell your home faster.
Latest Colour Trends for Kitchen Cabinets
One of the most exciting aspects of painting your kitchen is choosing the colour of your cabinets. We have seen a few trends over the years including blues and greens and even pinks, however blue seems to be the overall winner. Take a closer look at some of the past projects that our KPN Partners have completed to help with inspiration and ideas for your own kitchen.
**Bold and Bright Hues**
If you’re looking to make a statement in your kitchen, consider painting your cabinets in a bright and bold hue. Shades of blue and green are popular choices for those who want to add a pop of colour to their kitchen. For a more daring look, consider a colour like Mylands Covent Garden Floral or Vardo by Farrow & Ball. These colors can add energy and excitement to your kitchen and are perfect for those who love to entertain.
**Muted and Understated Tones**
If you prefer a more understated look, consider spray painting your kitchen cabinets in a muted tone. Shades of grey, beige, and white are popular choices for those who want a classic and timeless look. These colours can also make your kitchen look larger and more spacious. If you want a bit more colour, consider a soft pastel colour like pale pink or mint green. These colours can add a touch of warmth and sophistication to your kitchen.
**Worktop Finishes**
Worktop refurbishing is a new niche in the UK and Ireland, however not so much in the USA where it has been around for many years. This can be a great option if you don’t want the upheaval or expense of a new worktop, or love the style and shape of the worktop but fancy a change of colour or style. We have a few options for you that look fantastic and will give the kitchen a new lease of life. From StoneFlecks, which gives the look of granite, to resin where the options are almost endless.
Choosing the Right Type of Paint for Your Kitchen Cabinets
Choosing the right type of paint is essential for achieving professional-looking results when spray painting your kitchen cabinets. When looking at a company to paint your kitchen there are a few questions we want to make sure you ask. First one is what paint they will be using. There are a few options out there but quite a few of them are not suitable for using in an occupied home. We use tried and tested water based systems that are not only safe to use but durable for using on a kitchen.
When choosing paint for your kitchen cabinets, it’s also important to consider the finish. We recommend a 10% sheen which not only looks stunning but also is sensible for using on kitchens. This doesnt show up the finger marks that gloss would and it easier and more practical to keep clean.
Preparing Your Kitchen Cabinets for Painting
It is always a good idea to take this opportunity to have a good clear out of anything in your kitchen units that you no longer use or is broken. Give the inside of the units a good clean at this point so that when the kitchen painting is finished you can just stand back and admire the results.
At KPN, our partners offer a few different price options and these are explained in the quote. We offer a service where you clean the kitchen, remove handles and out them back, which obviously reduces the cost, however we also offer a service where we do all this for you.
We ask for the worktops and floor area to be clear when we are working on the kitchen so that we can protect the area ready for painting and ensure that none of your belongings get damaged whilst working.
Maintenance and Care for Your Newly Painted Kitchen Cabinets
Proper maintenance and care are essential for keeping your newly painted kitchen cabinets looking their best. To keep them clean, wipe them down regularly with a soft, damp microfibre cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners or bleach based products that can damage the paint. We have tested a huge range of cleaning products and recommend a plant based cleaner such as Method to clean your kitchen after it has been painted.
We know that the kitchen will get damaged over time, probably on the door or cabinet edges, on top of drawers where utensils stick out or where the dog accidentally shakes right after you apply flea protection (yes we have had this a few times now). If your cabinets get scratched or chipped, we leave a small touch up brush and some paint for you to do it yourself, however we also offer this as a service to our clients with a small charge to keep the kitchen looking it’s best for years to come.
Before and After Transformations of Spray Painted Kitchens
We have quite a few past kitchens on the website for you to look through and lots of them show the before and after images of the kitchens. This gives you a great idea of what your own kitchen could look like just by having us in to paint it. It can make a significant difference in the look and feel of your kitchen whether you have just moved in, looking for a freshen up or getting ready to sell and move on.
