Kitchen Cabinet Painting & Refinishing in Columbus, Ohio

Beautiful cabinetry. Thoughtful preparation. A finish that feels at home.
Classic Papering & Painting provides professional kitchen cabinet painting, refinishing and wood staining for homeowners throughout Columbus and Central Ohio. Whether you are considering a fresh painted finish or looking to restore the character of natural wood, our craftsmen bring experience and attention to detail to every project.

Well-made cabinetry does not always need to be replaced to give a kitchen a new look. Professional cabinet painting or refinishing can change the character of a room while preserving the existing cabinets.
The difference is in the preparation. Cleaning, sanding, filling, priming and selecting the right finish all contribute to the final result. Our approach considers the existing material, the condition of the cabinetry and the desired appearance before work begins.
We work with homeowners and interior designers throughout Upper Arlington, New Albany, Bexley, Dublin, Powell, Grandview Heights and Marble Cliff.
A Different Approach to Cabinetry


Painted Kitchen Cabinets
From warm whites and understated neutrals to deeper greens and traditional colors, painted cabinetry can bring a fresh perspective to an existing kitchen. We carefully prepare and spray cabinet doors and drawer fronts in our shop, while cabinet boxes are prepared and sprayed on site.
Cabinet Refinishing & Wood Staining
When the character of the wood is worth preserving, staining offers another approach. Thorough sanding and the appropriate stain and protective finish bring out the natural grain while refreshing the surface.
The right choice depends on the wood, its condition and the overall design of the kitchen.

Preparation Makes the Difference
Professional cabinet painting requires more than applying a new coat of paint. The preparation, materials and application all contribute to a smooth, durable finish.
Cabinet doors and drawer fronts are removed from the home and taken to our shop for preparation and spraying. Cabinet boxes are finished on site.
The appropriate primer and preparation system depend on the existing surface. Stained wood, previously painted cabinets and raw wood each require different considerations.
John McFarland, Owner of Classic Papering & Painting, explains: "This particular set of cabinets was a tremendous amount of time and prep and filling and really getting a super smooth finish on them. That really shows with the reflection of the light of it."

A Closer Look at Our Work
In this Upper Arlington home, Classic completed painted kitchen cabinetry, stained wood surfaces and a coffee bar as part of a larger interior project.
The work required different preparation and finishing techniques for the painted and stained surfaces, with careful attention to how each detail related to the surrounding rooms.
