Introduction: NJ License HIC # 13VH09651000 Painting kitchen cabinets is my specialty, my focus, and the driving force of my business. I have a temperature controlled spray shop that allows for proper curing. My method presents a 'greener' alternative to catalyzed lacquer or other chemical processes but still withstands the tests of everyday kitchen activity. A Urethane based Acrylic Product that is sturdy and stable this process continues to succeed. I grew up in the historical restoration field. From general repaints to new construction to old home house stripping and restoration I have done it all. I have a true passion for painting, always have, and I am always present on the job. I have always had a passion for changing the energy of a space with color.

I wanted to wait six months before posting this review so I could attest to the durability of the job. I am happy to say that John exceeded our expectations. Our kitchen had dark cherry stained cabinets and we changed them over to and off white color, Swiss Coffee. John helped with the selection, used top of the line Benjamin Moore paint. He removed the cabinet doors, took them back to his shop where he filled the old cabinet door holes, drilled the holes for the new hardware, sanded and spray coated them. I have friends that have had similar work done and upon up close inspection you could see small bubbles and fish eyes in the corner of the doors between the door panels and molding, Johns work was flawless. After about a week he returned to sand and paint the frames with two coats of paint and then came back and reinstalled the doors and hardware. Overall we couldn't be happier with John or the quality of work he and his team performed. I would highly recommend him.

Recently hired John to paint my kitchen cabinets, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results! From the initial consultation to the final brushstroke, John demonstrated professionalism and attention to detail. He provided a reasonable quote, adhered to the timeline, and the transformation is beyond my expectations. The cabinets look brand new, and the color is precisely what I envisioned. I appreciate the care taken to protect surrounding areas, ensuring a clean and tidy workspace throughout. I also had my railing painted to suit the flooring needs and results were pleasing. Highly recommend for anyone considering a kitchen cabinet makeover – they deliver quality craftsmanship with a friendly touch!

Details: Both, wall and base cabinets • 6-10 cabinets • Wood stain • Full repainting in darker color • No, I would like the professional to supply the paint

I can’t say enough good things about working with John, the quote process was straight forward, the work started a week after and took about one week to complete. He was always punctual and truly professional. Last and most importantly, the quality of work is amazing. Our cabinets look brand new and you have to look hard to realize these are painted. Thank you John!

John did an amazing job. The brown cabinets did not make me happy to be in my kitchen. John came on a Monday took the doors labeling everything. A week later he returned with the doors and then painted the cabinets It looks like I have a brand new kitchen and it looks amazing. John was professional.On time and responded to all my questions and concerns immediately I would definitely recommend him for your next painting project

John was very friendly to work with and on time and finished the job with high level of expectations. We love our kitchen upgrade even we only did Island cabinet and one above the microwave to match it. That changed our kitchen look completely and john did absolutely awesome job. He made sure kitchen doesn't get too dirty and cleaned it after which was so nice of him. We are going to hire him again for other interior painting jobs but highly recommend him for kitchen upgrades.
