Cabinet Services We Offer in Minnetonka, MN
Not every set of cabinets needs the same solution. Here's how we help you figure out what yours actually requires.
Cabinet Painting and Refinishing
Cabinet painting is often the simplest way to update your kitchen when the cabinet boxes are still in good condition. Our Cabinet Painting, Minnetonka service delivers a durable, factory-quality finish that lasts. We clean, sand, prime, and spray every cabinet using professional-grade coatings to create a smooth finish that resists peeling, chipping, and everyday wear.
Timeline: 5–7 business days
Cabinet Staining in Minnetonka
For solid wood cabinets, staining preserves the natural grain instead of covering it up. It's a warm, timeless option that suits Minnetonka kitchens with hardwood floors, stone countertops, or a more traditional overall style.
Best for: Solid wood cabinets
Cabinet Refacing in Minnetonka
When a new color alone won't fix an outdated door style, refacing gives your kitchen a different look without touching your existing cabinet boxes. New doors, drawer fronts, and hardware go on while your current layout stays exactly where it is.
Timeline: 7–10 business days
DIY Hybrid Option
Want a professional finish while keeping labor costs down? You handle the prep work, and our team professionally sprays the doors and drawer fronts, the detail that makes the biggest visual difference.
Best for: Budget-conscious homeowners

Our Cabinet Transformation Process
Every project follows the same structured process, so you know what to expect from your first phone call to the final walkthrough.
1. Schedule Your Free In-Home Estimate
Send us a few photos or a short video of your cabinets, and we'll follow up with a quick quote before scheduling an in-home visit to confirm the final details.
2. Color Consultation
We bring physical samples to your Minnetonka home so you can see exactly how a color looks in your kitchen's lighting before committing to it.
3. Surface Preparation and Priming
Every surface is cleaned, sanded, and primed thoroughly. This foundation determines whether your new finish lasts or peels early.
4. Professional Cabinet Finishing
Doors and drawer fronts are sprayed in a controlled environment rather than brushed or rolled on-site, producing a smooth, even, factory-quality coat.
5. Reinstallation
Once finishing is complete, all doors and drawer fronts are carefully reinstalled and aligned for a precise fit. New hardware or soft-close hinges can be added at this stage if you'd like.
6. Final Inspection
Before we consider a project finished, we walk through the completed kitchen with you to confirm every detail meets our standards and yours.

Common Questions from Minnetonka Homeowners
-
The cost to paint and reface cabinets in Minnetonka depends on your kitchen's size, cabinet condition, and which service you choose. We provide an exact number after a free in-home estimate rather than a broad online estimate.
-
Painting and refinishing typically takes 5 to 7 business days in Minnetonka, while refacing takes 7 to 10 business days, since the new doors are custom finished before installation.
-
Painting or refacing your cabinets before selling can help a kitchen show better to buyers without the cost of a full remodel. Painting is usually the more budget-friendly choice for a pre-sale refresh.
-
Yes. Professionally painted cabinets hold up well in Minnesota's changing seasons when they are properly cleaned, sanded, primed, and finished with high-quality cabinet coatings. At Barnett Cabinet Painting & Refacing, we use a thorough preparation process and durable finishes designed to resist peeling, chipping, and everyday wear, helping your cabinets maintain their appearance through seasonal changes and daily use.
-
Yes, we offer free cabinet estimates throughout Minnetonka, usually starting with a few photos before scheduling an in-home visit to confirm final pricing.
-
Heavy honey-oak stains and dark cherry finishes are the cabinet colors that read as most dated in kitchens today. Warm whites, soft greiges, and two-tone combinations are currently the most requested colors.
-
Painted or refaced cabinets typically last 8 to 15 years with a properly prepped and applied finish. Thorough sanding, degreasing, and priming are what separate a lasting finish from one that chips or peels early, no matter the climate or kitchen setup.
-
Yes, cabinets should be emptied before the project starts so we can access every surface for prep and finishing. We'll walk you through exactly what to clear during your in-home estimate.
-
Refacing is worth it compared to full cabinet replacement when the boxes are still structurally sound. You get a new look at roughly half to a third of the cost of tearing everything out and starting over.
-
Painting cabinets is cheaper than refacing for most homeowners. Painting only refinishes your existing doors, while refacing includes new doors, drawer fronts, and hardware, which typically makes it the higher-cost option.
