Cost: Painting is typically less costly than replacing cabinetry, in great part, because it takes far less time. The price range for painting cabinets is approximately $4,000 to $9,000. (Several factors affect pricing including geography, linear footage, and complexity of cabinet designs.) A kitchen renovation is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and a multi-step process, often with several subcontractors involved. Replacing cabinetry usually means you will also need to also replace the countertop, sink, hardware, and possibly even appliances. All of this can add up to thousands of dollars more.
