Revitalize Your Tired, Outdated Cabinets And
Bring Your Kitchen Into The Modern Era


Ready to finally update your kitchen cabinets? The eighties and nineties were great times โ€“ but not when theyโ€™re sticking around your kitchen. Not when theyโ€™re clashing with the rest of the vibe youโ€™re implementing and going for, either.

If youโ€™re a Pewaukee, WI, homeowner with an older home, youโ€™re likely stuck looking at outdated kitchen cabinets that make you feel trapped in the last century. Or, at best, the early 2000s.

The thing isโ€ฆ whole kitchen remodeling anywhere in the Southeastern Wisconsin region is costly. Itโ€™s also time-consuming and inconvenient, usually meaning you and your family wonโ€™t use your kitchen for several weeks.

In many cases, successfully upgrading the kitchen can be as simple as refreshing your cabinets with a fresh new coat of paint. For this, you can go one of three ways:

  1. Try to DIY them โ€“ not recommended unless youโ€™re an experienced cabinet painter with all the right tools, materials, product knowledge, etc.
  2. Call up any olโ€™ โ€˜painting companyโ€™ who claims they can get it done cheaply or fast.
  3. Connect with the cabinet painting specialists at Colorwheel.

Weโ€™ll fix imperfections, replace bent and damaged hinges or handles, and find the perfect colors to revitalize and transform your kitchen into a modern masterpiece.

Reface, Donโ€™t Replace, Any Outdated Kitchen
Cabinets In Your Pewaukee Home

A beautiful kitchen with floral wallpaper, plants in pots on the window sill, shelving on both sides, newly-painted pink kitchen cabinets, and wood panel flooring.

Replacing your cabinets is expensive. If theyโ€™re outdated but in otherwise good working order, refacing is a less expensive option for budget-conscious homeowners. Plus, refacing your cabinets takes far less time, so youโ€™ll have your kitchen back quicker than if you were entirely replacing your cabinets! Refacing is also a time to change colors too if you wish!

Cabinet refacing includes cabinet painting or staining/finishing, replacing doors and drawers, replacing hardware, and sometimes a mix of all the above. Once our expert cabinet painters finish, the difference will have you going all bug-eyed!

Since youโ€™re interested, letโ€™s walk through a couple of the most common questions we get from local Milwaukee Metro homeowners. Weโ€™ll start from the top.

What Are The Steps Involved In Cabinet Painting?

Cabinet painting isnโ€™t as simple as choosing a color and slapping it on the cabinets with a paintbrush. On the professional side of the scale, our reliable, detailed workmanship requires things to be done carefully, including but not limited to the following:

  • Thoroughly clean and sand surfaces (virtually dustless).
  • Removing and labeling components โ€“ knobs, screws, hinges, etc.
  • Use caulking and fillers to give cabinets a seamless look.
  • Prime all surfaces before painting.
  • Fix defects in all cabinet surfaces.
  • Remove all doors and drawers.
  • Paint and repaint cabinets.
  • Re-install all items.
  • Final touch-ups.

A practiced hand must do the sanding, priming, fixing, painting, and repainting to achieve that polished, magazine-worthy look you want. This is why the DIY route is fraught with disaster! Speaking of whichโ€ฆ

Can I DIY My Cabinet Painting, Or Do I Need
The Job Completed By A Professional?

Due to the complicated cabinet painting process, we donโ€™t recommend doing it yourself. There are many components to track and steps to get done right, in the proper order. Then thereโ€™s your dry times to strictly obey; trust us, you donโ€™t want to ignore this part.

Nope. You canโ€™t shortcut this one.

Youโ€™ll be stuck looking at errors for years if something goes wrong. Or paint that stays forever soft.

When you work with Colorwheel Painting, we guarantee our expert painters will complete the job patiently, efficiently, and meticulously. You can sit back and leave the work to us, then enjoy your seamless new painted cabinets!

How Do I Choose The Right Paint Color
For My Pewaukee Kitchen Cabinets?

The fun or overwhelming part comes once youโ€™ve decided to paint your kitchen cabinets. Many times, itโ€™s both! Understanding your style is the first step to narrowing down the right color for your cabinets.

  • Do you have a spacious farmhouse kitchen?
  • Or more of a sleek, modern feel?

Many modern kitchens use minimalist palettes of black and white, perhaps with a vivid splash of color as an accent. Traditional kitchens often use pastel palettes, with colonial kitchens having rich, saturated colors that give your home a warm, cozy feel.

At Colorwheel Painting, weโ€™re happy to provide a color consultation to help you better understand the impact color will have on your home. After all, the last thing you want is to choose a color youโ€™ll later regret! After decades in the industry, weโ€™ve got a good handle on what works and what doesnโ€™t.

Should I Replace My Cabinet Hardware
As Part Of My Cabinet Restoration?

If your previous kitchen cabinets appear outdated, your cabinet hardware could be one of the factors contributing to their tired or outdated look. Replacing the hardware (such as knobs, handles, and hinges) of your cabinets can make a world of difference โ€“ especially when combined with fresh new paint!

To check out tons of cabinet painting projects weโ€™ve done in the Milwaukee area, head over to our Cabinet Gallery and feast your eyes. We had most of the shots taken by a professional photographer to capture both the impact and crisp colors. Youโ€™ll also see how hardware plays a role in the restoration. Enjoy!
