We at Texora Painting & Drywall do cabinet painting in Tsawwassen, Ladner and the rest of Delta, BC. One of the two partners prices your kitchen on site, our crew removes and sprays the doors, and the written estimate names your 1, 2 or 3-year workmanship warranty. A spray finish on your existing cabinets costs a fraction of a kitchen replacement.
Cabinets are removed, sprayed in a controlled environment, and reinstalled, which gives a dust-free, brush-mark-free finish that's smooth to the touch. With the right primer and a catalyzed urethane or waterborne alkyd topcoat, painted cabinets hold up to daily use. We're house painters based in Tsawwassen, in the City of Delta, and we take cabinet work in Ladner, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody too.
For a finished example, see the Ladner Village kitchen cabinet repaint. If you are repainting the room as well as the cabinets, see our interior painting services.
Every surface gets degreased thoroughly, sanded to remove the existing sheen, and finished with an adhesion primer before any topcoat goes on, because grease and a slick factory sheen are exactly what stop paint from bonding to a cabinet door. Doors and drawer fronts come off to be sprayed, as in the Ladner Village kitchen repaint, so ask whether hinges, handles, and knobs get removed before spraying or just taped over. Taped-over hardware is a common way to end up with a rough edge once it's pulled off.
Laminate, melamine, and thermofoil surfaces, and previously varnished wood, don't grip a topcoat the way bare, sanded wood does, which is why they get an adhesion primer.
Not sure whether to paint, reface or replace? Our guide to painting vs refacing kitchen cabinets in Delta compares what each one keeps and what it changes.
We visit your home, assess the scope, and provide a detailed written quote, with no surprise charges.
Not sure on colours? We'll bring swatches, walk you through finishes, and help you choose a palette that works with your lighting and furnishings.
We degrease every surface, sand off the existing sheen and apply an adhesion primer.
Floors, furniture and fixtures are covered before painting starts.
Doors and drawer fronts are sprayed, and frames are sprayed or brush-finished with a levelling primer.
We clean up once the work is complete, then walk through the job with you to make sure you're 100% satisfied before we pack up.
If anything needs touching up after we leave, call us and we'll come back to it under the warranty.

Kitchen cabinets before and after
Kitchen cabinets are coated with grease, oils, and residue that prevent paint from bonding. We degrease every surface thoroughly, sand to remove the existing sheen, and apply an adhesion primer before any topcoat.
Brushing or rolling cabinet faces leaves visible texture and brush marks. We remove doors and drawer fronts and spray them in a controlled environment, and frames are sprayed or carefully brush-finished with a levelling primer.
We use waterborne alkyd or catalyzed urethane topcoats in place of standard wall latex. These are specifically formulated for cabinetry: harder, more resistant to moisture and grease, and cleanable without marring the finish.
Your written estimate sets out the schedule for removal, spraying, cure time and reinstallation, and we keep you updated throughout. We phase the work so doors are spraying while frames are curing, which shortens the time the kitchen is out of commission.
Cabinet paint can feel dry to the touch within hours, but the topcoat needs longer to harden before it can take a heavy pot lid swinging into a door. Ask us how long your finish needs before normal use, and go gently with doors and drawers for a while after they're rehung.
Cabinet projects carry the same written warranty as any other job, stated on your estimate, one to three years depending on scope. It covers doors and frames where the paint fails because of how it was prepped or applied: peeling, blistering, or adhesion loss. It doesn't cover the everyday scuffs in a working kitchen, or damage from harsh cleaners used on the finish after the fact.
The 100% satisfaction guarantee applies here too: we go through the finished kitchen with you and fix anything inside the agreed scope before the project is considered done.
Cabinet painting often comes up alongside a bigger project: if you're refreshing the whole main floor at the same time, see our full home repaint page.
Painting a bathroom vanity uses the same spray process, more on our bathroom refresh page, and if the trim around your kitchen needs attention while the cabinets are being done, see trim, doors and ceilings.
| Surface | Prep | Finish |
|---|---|---|
| Doors and drawer fronts | Removed, degreased, sanded to remove the existing sheen, then an adhesion primer | Sprayed in a controlled environment with a waterborne alkyd or catalyzed urethane topcoat |

| Interior boxes | Painted on request, usually when the current finish is peeling or mismatched | An additional cost |
| Laminate, melamine and thermofoil | An adhesion primer, since these surfaces do not grip a topcoat the way bare, sanded wood does | The same spray finish; we check your cabinet material at the quote visit |

Not if the prep is right. Cabinet paint usually fails because degreasing, sanding or the right primer got skipped, and we do all three before a hard-wearing cabinet topcoat.
