“I am very satisfied with Gary’s work and professionalism! My kitchen cabinets look brand new! I definitely recommend Gary if you’re looking for a new kitchen look for a good price 👍🏽”Full review on Google “Excellent, professional work. I debated replacing the entire kitchen vs painting it or having the cabinet doors replaced. The kitchen layout is efficient, the space not allowing major changes. The cabinets were quality wood, replacing them was tens of thousands of dollars. I opted for painting after seeing a sample of the finished work. I am very pleased with the finished product. The kitchen looks brand new, as if it was just installed by the manufacturer. Thank you for the amazing results. Looking for the next project to work with Gary again.”Full review on Facebook “I had my kitchen cabinets painted by Mr. Gary Cabinet Painting and the results exceeded my expectations. Instead of replacing our cabinets, we decided to refinish them, and it was one of the best decisions we made. The preparation process was extremely thorough, and the attention to detail was impressive. The finish looks factory-made, smooth and durable. The kitchen feels completely transformed and looks like a brand-new space. Gary was professional, reliable, and kept everything clean throughout the project. If you’re considering updating your kitchen without the cost of a full renovation, I highly recommend Mr. Gary Cabinet Painting. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻”Full review on Facebook “Gary did an excellent job painting our kitchen cabinets. He gave me a 5 day schedule and did exactly as he planned out prior to starting the work. He arrived on time every day, worked very cleanly, and kept the area tidy throughout the project. He also cleaned up before leaving each day, which i really appreciated. The cabinet colors look great and turned out exactly as discussed. I’m very happy with the finished result and would highly recommend Gary Cabinet painting.”Full review on Facebook “We hired Gary to paint our cabinets, and he did an absolutely amazing job!

If you need your cabinets painted, highly recommend Gary!”Full review on Google “We are satisfied with Gary’s services. He was attentive to our requests and questions and he put in the extra attention to details that were important to us. The final look is as we expected, we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to freshen up their kitchen!”Full review on Facebook The 5DAY ONSITE process
One week. One kitchen. Done in your home.
A typical schedule, filmed on real jobs. Larger kitchens or repairs can add time, and you will know that before I start.
- Day 1
Protect & take apart
Floors, counters, appliances and walls are sealed off. Every door and drawer front comes off and gets labelled.
- Day 2
Degrease & sand
Every surface is degreased, then machine-sanded with dust extraction so the coating can grip.
- Day 3
Prime
Two coats of BIN shellac-based primer. It seals wood tannins and old finishes so nothing bleeds through.
- Day 4
Spray the colour
The primer is sanded smooth, then two coats of Renner 2K with hardener. No brush texture, no roller stipple.
- Day 5
Inspect and reinstall
The masking comes down, doors and hardware go back on and get aligned, and the whole kitchen is checked.
Why Mr. Gary
Cabinets are not walls.
“I don’t need a spray shop to achieve a factory-style finish. Every cabinet door passes through my own two hands.”
Kitchen cabinets get grabbed, steamed and wiped every day. Wall paint and a roller will not survive that. I use premium Italian Renner 2K coatings with a hardener, sprayed over a bonding primer, with a dust-control setup so the rest of your home stays clean.

Cost
The price depends on your kitchen.
Mostly on the number of doors and drawers, the material and the condition. I quote from your photos, for free. Because I work on-site, there is no spray shop overhead in the price.
What moves the pricePainting or refacing?
Like your doors? Keep them.
Refacing replaces the doors and veneers the boxes. When your doors are solid and you like their shape, painting keeps them and changes the colour and the finish.
Painting vs refacing, side by sideCan painted cabinets really look factory-finished?
Yes, when they are sprayed. I use Renner 2K coatings with hardener, applied with a sprayer after full cleaning, sanding and priming. That is what removes brush and roller marks.
Do you take the doors to a shop?
No. The whole process happens in your home. I set up a contained spray area with dust control, so there is no need to transport your doors.
How long does a kitchen take?
A typical kitchen takes five days on-site. Very large kitchens, repairs or unusual materials can add time, and I will tell you that up front from your photos.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the number of doors and drawers, the material and the condition. Send photos for a free quote. In most cases it is a fraction of the cost of replacing the kitchen.
Is painting better than refacing?
If your doors are solid and you like their style, painting keeps them and changes the finish for less. Refacing replaces doors and veneers the boxes. I compare both on a separate page.
Can you refinish the bathroom vanity too?
Yes. Some of my 5DAY ONSITE projects include the bathroom vanity, refinished at the same time as the kitchen. Add a photo of it when you send your kitchen photos.
Where do you work?
Montreal and surrounding areas, including Laval, the West Island, Westmount, Town of Mount Royal, Dorval and Brossard.
Fast first step
Show me the kitchen.
Send 3–8 photos, your area and a rough count of doors. I review every request myself and reply with next steps.
