How much does it cost to paint kitchen cabinets?

Among our clients

The price of painting kitchen cabinets can vary significantly depending on a number of factors. Here is a breakdown of the estimated costs and influencing factors, so you can get a better estimate:

General price range (professional work):

  • For a small kitchen (up to 20 doors/drawer fronts): 1,000 – 4,000 ₪
  • For a medium kitchen (21-40 doors/drawer fronts): 4,000 – 7,000 ₪
  • For a large kitchen (over 40 doors/drawer fronts): 7,000 – 12,000 NIS and above

Price per unit (door/drawer):

  • Average price per door: 70 – 125 NIS
  • Average price for a drawer front: 30 – 110 NIS
  • Average price per cabinet: 120 – 190 NIS

Main factors affecting the price:

  • Kitchen size and number of cabinets/doors/drawers: The more units to paint, the higher the total cost. However, discounts may be available for large quantities.
  • Cabinet condition: Cabinets in good condition will require less prep work (cleaning, sanding, minor repairs). Cabinets with damage, peeling paint, or severe stains will require additional work and cost more.
  • Type of cabinet material: Painting solid wood cabinets is different from painting Formica, melamine, or MDF cabinets and can require different materials and techniques.
  • Color and finish type: Higher quality, more durable paints will be more expensive. Special finishes (such as matte, glossy, special effects) may increase the cost of the job.
  • Work complexity: Cabinets with intricate details, engravings, or moldings will require more time and effort for thorough painting.
  • Removing and installing a fitting: If you want to replace the handles and rails, the cost will increase. Removing the existing hardware and reinstalling it after painting is part of the job and can affect the price.
  • groundwork: Thorough preparation of the cabinets (cleaning, sanding, filling holes, primer) is critical for a good result and can affect the duration of the work and the price.
  • Painting method: Painting with a brush and roller will usually be cheaper than airless painting, which provides a smoother and more professional finish but requires special equipment and protection.
  • Geographic location: Prices can vary depending on the region of the country and local living costs.
  • Experience and reputation of the paint: A professional and experienced colorist may charge a higher price than a beginner colorist.

Self-assessment (DIY):

If you decide to paint the cabinets yourself, the cost will be significantly lower and will mainly include the cost of the paint, primer, tools (brushes, rollers, sandpaper, masking tape, protective covers) and other materials. The cost of materials can range from 200 to 600 NIS for an average kitchen. However, consider the time, effort and skills required to achieve a professional result.

Comparison with replacing cabinets:

Painting kitchen cabinets is usually a much more economical solution than replacing the entire cabinetry, which can cost thousands to tens of thousands of shekels. If your cabinet structure is good and you just want to change the look, painting is an excellent and affordable option.
