Our Cabinet Painting Service Area in Southeast Nebraska

Early-1900s homes with original woodwork, frequently cherry or birch, and very often painted badly once already by a previous owner. The first question here is usually whether a previous coating is sound enough to go over or has to come off entirely.

These homes predate 1978, which puts them under the EPA's Renovation, Repair and Painting rule. We establish the build year at the estimate and handle those surfaces under lead-safe work practices.

Bungalows and post-war builds with small kitchens and tight working conditions. Single runs of wall cabinets, often a peninsula, and not much floor space to set up in. Off-site door spraying matters more here than anywhere, because there is simply nowhere in the house to lay doors out.

1950s and 1960s kitchens on their second or third finish. Solid construction, often with original hardwood face frames, and usually carrying a layer of someone else's paint that needs testing before anything is quoted.

Peak golden-oak era and the most common job we quote in the entire city. Honey oak raised-panel fronts with an orange cast, ambered clearcoat, brass hardware and cabinet boxes in genuinely excellent condition. Almost always a grain-filling conversation.

1990s and 2000s builds in oak and early maple. A decade behind Colonial Hills and heading the same way. Maple is the easier substrate and needs no grain filling at all, which usually surprises people who have been quoted as though it were oak.

Newer maple and hickory in larger kitchens. Nothing is failing here. This is colour-change work rather than repair work, with shorter timelines and lower cost at the same door count. Hickory needs sampling before any staining decision because of how dramatically it varies board to board.
