Cumming’s Big-Kitchen Homes
Cabinet Painting Guys is a family-owned, insured team of cabinet painters serving Cumming, GA. Homeowners here often look into kitchen cabinet painting or cabinet refinishing because the cabinetry in their big 2000s builds is sound; it is the dated look that has to go. Cumming is the Forsyth County seat, with the GA-400 corridor tying it to Alpharetta and Roswell.
Communities like Vickery, with its village green, Polo Fields, a golf community built from the mid-2000s onward, and the master-planned Windermere, with its golf course, pool, and tennis courts, are typical of the area. Up near Sawnee Mountain and out on the Lake Lanier side of the county, the housing mixes recent construction with lake-oriented homes, where the kitchen is often the room everybody ends up in.
Kitchens from that building boom tend to be big. Many have tall 42-inch upper cabinets stacked under crown molding, large islands, and a finish that was the fashion at the time: glazed maple, warm cherry, or a heavy honey stain. Those finishes are exactly what many homeowners want to move past.
Cabinet Painters Serving Cumming
A Cumming kitchen is mostly surface: tall uppers, long runs, an oversized island. So the job is about keeping a big project consistent from the first door to the last. Fronts are taken off and sprayed to a smooth, factory-style coat, and the face frames and tall crown get theirs right where they hang. Glazed finishes need extra prep, because glaze settles into door grooves and corners, and the surface has to be clean before the new color goes on.
Our zero-mess process keeps the work tidy, the paint is low-VOC, and soft-close hardware is available for the drawers and doors while the fronts are off.
When we visit a Cumming kitchen, we look closely at:
- What is on the surface now: glaze, stain, or a factory topcoat.
- Upper height, the crown, and any glass-front doors.
- The island, the desk nook, and any tall utility cabinets.
- The shade you are after, including a match to a paint brand you already like.

Cabinet Refinishing in Cumming
With glazed maple and cherry, refinishing is about getting out from under the old look. Maple and cherry are solid cabinet woods, and the doors themselves are rarely the problem. The dated part is the glaze and the warm color, and a new finish in a clean white, a soft greige, or a deeper green changes the room without touching the layout. We refinish by changing the color and sheen, adding new hardware where you want it, and leaving the cabinet construction alone.
Cherry can be the trickiest, since its color is rich and the grain shows through some finishes. That is a conversation for the estimate, once we have seen the doors in your own light. If you want to keep a hint of the wood, or you are weighing a lighter finish against a painted one, we sort that out together at the free estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Glazed and cherry finishes are common on kitchens from the 2000s, and they just need the right prep so the new color bonds and the glaze doesn’t show through. We look at the actual finish at the free estimate and tell you what it needs.
Refinishing glazed maple leaves the boxes and doors alone and renews what sits on top: color, sheen, and hardware. The maple stays and the dated glaze goes.
The prep and the sprayed finish are similar, but cherry has a rich color and visible grain, so we talk through how you want the final look to read before we start. Some homeowners want a solid painted color, others want a lighter finish that still shows some character, and the estimate is where we sort out which route fits.
It adds surface area and a few more steps, but nothing we don’t plan for. Doors are removed and sprayed, while frames, crown, and trim are finished in place, and the written estimate itemizes it all so you can see what is included.
Yes. The frames and rails around the glass are painted while the glass stays clear, and we match them to the rest of the uppers so the whole wall reads as one color. Our white glass-front kitchen above is a good example.
Yes. The containment keeps dust inside the work area, so only the kitchen itself is off limits. A big kitchen with long cabinet runs has more to finish, so we put a realistic schedule in writing at the estimate.
