4. Base – Typically under the countertops

• Bathroom Cabinets – These are usually designed for storage of towels, toiletry, cleaning supplies, and sometimes even just for looks. These types of cabinets include vanities, wall mounted cabinets, medicine cabinets, base for under the sink
• Storage Cabinets for your room or Hallways – Depending on what you are storing of course will determine the size or style of cabinets you need, along with the style of your room. If you have kids or a unique master bedroom, that room may have a different look than the rest of the home.

• Display Cabinets: These are typically in kitchen and dining rooms. Here you will have cabinets with glass that displays art, memorabilia, books, china, glassware, or other decorations you want to display in your home. These are also used sometimes for entertainment centers, however those tend to be custom as the hardware needs to breathe.
• Garage Cabinets: These collect a ton of dust and scratches over the years because you tend to store hardware, supplies, and equipment in them that are of course, not clean. However, you may be turning your garage into a man cave, or getting epoxy floors so your family and friends can spend more time out there.

Once you have decided to paint or stain your cabinets, how do you decide which to do?

Outside of personal preference, here is what we recommend when deciding to paint or stain your cabinets. If you have an attractive wood, staining may be a good option, and if you have a smooth solid color, it may be best to paint over it. If your cabinets are made of materials outside of wood, we recommend painting. On top of this, deciding which colors depends on how much wow factor you want, and what colors on the color wheel will compliment your home and walls surrounding your cabinets. Painting is more durable than staining which saves you money in the long run so there are less touch ups.

Additional Cabinet Painting and Staining tips in Denver Metro Areas

• Make sure your painter removes the old finish, sands the cabinets, and then primes them before ever painting or staining.
• Allow the paint to dry overnight, this way you will be sure it is good to go for the future.
• Applying a clear coat can be a good idea depending on the type of paint you chose. This will ensure less paint or stain chipping and cracking
