Cabinet Painting in Lexington, KY: What It Really Costs in 2026

If you're weighing new cabinets against refinishing yours here in Lexington, the first question is always the same: what does it actually cost? Here's exactly what B&B Wood Coatings charges Lexington-area homeowners in 2026 — no bait-and-switch, no hidden fees, no franchise markup.

2026 Lexington Cabinet Painting Prices

• Cabinet doors: $125 per door
• Drawer fronts: $50 per drawer
• Cabinet boxes / face frames: included when we spray the doors
• Hardware install (drill + align new holes): free with any full kitchen
• 7-year no-chip warranty: included

A typical Lexington kitchen — 25 to 30 doors and 6 to 10 drawers — lands between $3,500 and $5,500 painted in place with a premium sprayed finish. Compare that to $20,000–$45,000+ for new cabinets installed by a local Lexington remodeler and you're looking at a 60–70% savings without losing weeks of your life to a full remodel.

Why Lexington Homeowners Pay Less Than the National Average

Nationwide cabinet painting averages sit closer to $4,000–$8,000, and the big franchises quoting Lexington kitchens usually land at the top of that range. We're a local Lexington-based shop — no franchise fees, no royalty payments, no corporate overhead — so the prep, coatings, and warranty are the same or better at a fraction of the franchise price.

What Changes the Price?

1. Door and drawer count

This is 90% of the estimate. Text photos of your kitchen to 859-242-5209 or use our instant Lexington cabinet painting cost calculator to see your ballpark in under a minute.

2. Color and finish choice

Whites, warm neutrals, sage greens, and deep navys all price the same. Deep-tint blacks and heavy dark colors sometimes need an extra coat.

3. Condition of the existing cabinets

Solid wood, MDF, and thermofoil all take our coating system beautifully after proper prep. Heavily damaged doors may need repair before spraying — we quote that up front, no surprises.
