Verandah Cabinet Painting Project

Two-Tone Cabinet Painting in Verandah, Fort Myers

Randy had just purchased this Fort Myers home, but the kitchen felt dark, dated, and unlike the style he wanted. Apex Painting Group transformed the existing wood cabinets with Alabaster and gave the island contrast in Slate Tile, creating a brighter two-tone kitchen in five days.

Project Overview

Giving a Newly Purchased Home a Kitchen That Felt Personal

The wood cabinets were still in good condition, so replacing them was unnecessary. The concern was the appearance: the existing design felt too dark and dated for Randy's vision for the home.

Cabinet painting provided a way to retain the quality cabinetry while completely changing the feel of the room. Apex Painting Group's color consultant helped select a balanced two-tone palette that brightened the main cabinets and made the island a strong visual centerpiece.

Preparation and Process

The Work Behind the Factory-Like Finish

Protecting the Kitchen

The team carefully covered the surrounding space and furniture to protect the home throughout the cabinet refinishing process.

Sanding and Priming

Cabinet surfaces were sanded and primed to promote proper adhesion and establish the smooth foundation needed for a refined finish.

Skilled Finish Work

The highly skilled crew applied the satin finish with close attention to consistency, coverage, and the clean appearance expected from professionally painted cabinets.

Before and After

From Dark and Dated to Bright and Distinctive

The lighter perimeter cabinets open up the kitchen, while the Slate Tile island adds depth and definition without making the room feel heavy.

Color and Finish

A Two-Tone Palette Chosen for the Home

Sherwin-Williams Alabaster SW 7008 was selected for the main cabinets. Its warm, light appearance helped replace the kitchen's darker visual weight with a fresher and more inviting look.

The island was finished in Sherwin-Williams Slate Tile SW 7624, providing a deeper contrasting color that anchors the room. A satin finish completed the design with a smooth, polished appearance appropriate for kitchen cabinetry.

The Finished Transformation

Randy Loved the New Kitchen

In five days, the kitchen changed from a style Randy inherited with the home into a space that reflected his own design preferences. The color consultation brought the vision into focus, while meticulous preparation and experienced finish work made the transformation feel seamless.

Randy absolutely loved the completed kitchen and the two colors selected for the cabinets and island.
