Cabinet Painting in Wilmington, NC
Wilmington kitchens run from early-1900s bungalows in Carolina Place and Carolina Heights to 1940s cottages in Forest Hills and Sunset Park to newer construction in Landfall, Porters Neck and Riverlights, and Simpli Painted sprays each one to the same factory-smooth standard, using Sherwin-Williams Gallery Series and backing the finish with a 2-year warranty. That is what cabinet painting Wilmington NC homeowners get from us: a proper refinish, not a brush-and-roller paint job.
Wilmington, NC Homeowners — A Cabinet Painting Specialist Worth Knowing
Wilmington’s housing spans nearly three centuries. The downtown historic district was laid out in 1737 and holds homes built from the mid-1700s through the early 1900s, and the first streetcar suburbs followed: Carolina Place and Carolina Heights filled in from about 1906 through the 1940s with Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Craftsman bungalow homes, while Sunset Park, Brookwood and Forest Hills added cottages and early ranches through the 1940s and 1950s.
The next ring came decades later. Landfall, near Wrightsville Beach, opened in the 1980s, Porters Neck followed in the early 1990s, and Masonboro Forest was built out between 1998 and 2004. Riverlights on the Cape Fear River opened in 2016, and across the river in Leland, Brunswick Forest holds much of the area’s newest construction.
Whether it’s eighty-year-old cabinets in a Forest Hills cottage or builder-grade doors in a newer Riverlights home, every project gets the same full process: thorough degreasing, filling and sanding of every ding and worn edge, bonding primer, and a sprayed Gallery Series topcoat. We don’t skip steps on newer cabinets or rush older ones.
Doors and drawer fronts come off, get labeled, and go to our shop for spraying in a controlled environment. Boxes are masked and sprayed in place. Nothing is brushed. The result is an even, durable finish with no brush marks, no roller texture, and no drips on the door edges. For cabinet painting Wilmington NC, that standard is the whole point.
