At Apex Painting Group, we love projects that prove you don’t need a full renovation to achieve a completely custom, high-end look. This cabinet painting project in Fort Myers, Florida is a perfect example of how thoughtful design choices and expert execution can transform a kitchen.
The Vision
Our client, Dr. Jennifer Henry, loved the layout and quality of her existing cabinets but wanted a fresh, updated look that felt more modern and intentional. Rather than replacing the cabinets, she chose professional cabinet painting as a cost-effective way to elevate the space while keeping its original character.
The Color Selection Process
One of the most important steps in any cabinet painting project is color selection. Dr. Henry worked closely with our color consultant to choose a shade that would add depth and contrast while remaining timeless. The final selection was African Gray (Sherwin-Williams SW 9162) — a rich, sophisticated tone that adds warmth and elegance to the kitchen.
We applied the new color to the kitchen island and lower cabinets, creating a striking contrast against the lighter elements in the space and instantly making the kitchen feel more custom and refined.
Custom Details & Finishing Touches
To complete the transformation, we installed new cabinet hardware, giving the cabinets a clean, updated finish that complements the new color beautifully. These small details play a big role in creating a cohesive, polished look.
Our team followed a detailed preparation and finishing process to ensure smooth, durable results designed to stand up to daily use in a busy kitchen.
The Result
The final result is a dramatic yet timeless kitchen refresh that feels both elevated and personal. Dr. Henry was thrilled with how the new cabinet color transformed the space and shared a full testimonial highlighting how happy she was with the entire experience.
She noted how easy our team was to work with, how professional the process felt from start to finish, and how much she appreciated being kept informed throughout the project.
