Cabinet Painting Jobs: Managing the Homeowner’s Week Without a Kitchen

Cabinet painting means the homeowner loses their kitchen for days. How you communicate that week decides the review.

Set the Timeline in the Estimate

Spell out the days: removal, prep, primer, coats, rehang.

Label Everything

Doors and drawers come off and must go back in the same place. Note in the access notes where they are set up.

Dry Time Between Coats

Plan the days around dry and cure time.

Daily Updates

A quick text each day keeps the homeowner calm.

The Reveal

Rehang, adjust hinges, reinstall hardware, clean up, and take after photos.
