What makes cabinet painting & refinishing different in Holmby Hills

Holmby Hills is part of LA's Platinum Triangle — the smallest and most exclusive of the three corners alongside Beverly Hills and Bel Air. Lots are large; homes are old; budgets and timelines reflect both. Mediterranean and English-manor estates dominate, often with original 1920s and 1930s plumbing and electrical that need full updates during any serious remodel. We approach Holmby Hills with the same precision the architecture deserves.

Hillside parcels in Holmby Hills carry their own engineering load. Drainage, retaining-wall design, caissons where pools or major additions are part of the scope, and fire-zone defensible-space requirements all shape how a cabinet painting & refinishing project gets sequenced. We coordinate hillside engineering at the design phase, not at construction.

Most Holmby Hills homes were built before 1980. That means galvanized supply lines, undersized electrical panels, original gas runs, and rough-in plumbing that hasn't been touched in decades. Once walls open during a cabinet painting & refinishing project, we expect to bring the underlying systems to current code — not as a surprise, as a plan.

Common architecture in Holmby Hills: Mediterranean Estate, English Manor, Spanish Colonial Revival. We design westside renovations to honor what's already there while bringing systems and finishes up to current code and current standards.

Cabinet Painting & Refinishing in Holmby Hills — Frequently Asked Questions

Most kitchen cabinet refinishing projects take 5–7 days. Larger homes with extensive built-ins and vanities may take 7–10 days. Your kitchen will be functional throughout most of the process.

Lacquer is a beautiful, fast-curing finish that works well for most applications. Conversion varnish is harder and more chemical-resistant — we recommend it for high-use kitchen cabinets that need to stand up to daily cooking, cleaning products, and moisture.

Professional cabinet refinishing typically costs 30–50% less than new custom cabinetry, with a fraction of the timeline. A full kitchen refinish at $8,000–$15,000 compares to $25,000–$60,000+ for new custom cabinets installed.

Yes. Our lacquer and conversion varnish finishes are commercial-grade and designed for daily use. With proper care, a professional spray finish will last 10–15+ years before needing a refresh.

Yes. We match any Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, or Farrow & Ball color. We can also custom-match existing finishes if you want to blend new work with existing cabinetry in other rooms.
