From Gloomy to Glamorous, Transforming a Dark Kitchen.

The old kitchen was a gloomy place. Dark wood-cabinets, installed many years previously, absorbed what little natural light struggled through the small window. It felt cramped and claustrophobic, not a room to linger.

Our client yearned for a brighter, more inviting space. With the dark cabinets being the biggest culprit making the room feel so heavy.

They started researching their options. Refacing the cabinets or changing the doors was expensive, and a complete renovation was out of their budget. Then, they stumbled upon our post on having their old kitchen hand painted to a showroom finish again.

Traditional Hand Painted began the transformation. The first day was spent meticulously preparing and repairing the cabinets, sanding them down to create a smooth surface. The first coat of specialist primer was applied at the end of the first day, followed by three more for a flawless finish.

As the paint dried, the kitchen began to take shape. The once gloomy space was slowly being bathed in a soft, inviting glow. The light cabinets reflected the light, making the room feel much larger and airier.

In just 5 days the transformation was complete. The dark, oppressive kitchen had been replaced with a bright, cheerful space. Our clients were overjoyed.

"John and Aidan are true professionals, skilled, trustworthy and accommodating, genuinely lovely to work with. They transformed my dark old kitchen into a beautiful bright space which looks and feels brand new and high quality. Absolutely delighted.
