DIY Saves Money, But at a Cost
When updating the look of your home, cabinets are often overlooked—but they play a huge role in the overall style and function of your kitchen, bathroom, or storage spaces. While it can be tempting to grab a brush and do it yourself, hiring professional cabinet painters can make all the difference. Here’s why trusting experts like MGM Painting Co is the smarter choice.
Expertise That Shows
Professional cabinet painters bring years of experience working with wood, MDF, and laminate surfaces. They know the right prep work, primers, and finishes to use so the paint adheres smoothly and lasts. This means no brush marks, drips, or uneven coats—just flawless results.
A Smarter Investment
Cabinet painting is one of the most cost-effective ways to refresh your home. Instead of spending thousands on replacements, a professional paint job can give your cabinets a brand-new look for a fraction of the price. Better yet, freshly painted cabinets can boost your home’s value and make it more appealing to buyers in today’s competitive real estate market.

What Can Go Wrong with DIY Cabinet Painting?
Painting cabinets may look simple, but it’s one of the most challenging painting projects in a home. Many homeowners start with good intentions only to end up frustrated. Here are some of the common problems that come with a do-it-yourself approach:
◈ Peeling and Chipping Paint
Without the right prep work and primers, paint won’t bond properly. Within weeks, the finish can start peeling—especially around handles and high-use areas.
◈ Visible Brush Marks and Streaks
Cabinets require a smooth, factory-like finish. Standard brushes and rollers often leave streaks, drips, and uneven layers that are impossible to ignore.
◈ Improper Surface Prep
Skipping steps like degreasing, sanding, and filling holes can ruin the finish. Grease or dust trapped under the paint will cause bubbling or uneven textures.
◈ Mismatched or Dated Colors
Picking the wrong shade can make your kitchen or bathroom feel dark, dated, or even clash with your existing décor. Professionals can guide you toward colors that actually enhance your space.
◈ Time and Mess
What seems like a “weekend project” often stretches into weeks of disorganized work, with cabinet doors, tools, and paint supplies spread all over your home.
◈ Short-Lived Results
Even if the cabinets look good at first, most DIY paint jobs don’t stand up to daily wear and tear. Chips, scratches, and fading show up fast, leaving you right back where you started.
