In a condo galley or L-shape the fronts leave for spraying and the boxes take a single contained day indoors. The unit stays usable, and cabinet painting works around the building's rules on elevators and parking.
Kingston's condos run from the converted limestone buildings downtown to the towers near Queen's and the newer blocks along the waterfront and Princess Street. Most have ten to fifteen doors, melamine or thermofoil fronts, and a board with rules about contractors. The thermofoil and melamine page covers the materials in most of them.
Condo Cabinet Painting Is Priced By The Door, And The Bracket Is Small
A galley of ten to fifteen fronts in a condo sits in the smallest cabinet painting bracket. Ontario market ranges put a condo galley at roughly $1,500 to $2,800, and per door at about $130 to $250. Those are market figures. Our written quote counts the real fronts, names the primer and topcoat, and gives one number.
Cabinet Painting In A Condo Means Working Around The Building
Elevator bookings, loading-dock hours, parking permits and quiet hours are all part of a condo job, and we deal with them before the first day. One short visit takes the doors and fronts down and off to the spray booth, so the noisy and smelly part of the work happens away from the building. A single day inside sealed plastic finishes the boxes, with the range hood or a window fan pulling air out, and the plastic is gone by evening.
Most boards ask for proof of insurance. The work is insured, so the paperwork is easy to provide. If the building requires a contractor form or a deposit, we fill it out.
Doors Off Site Keep The Unit Livable During Cabinet Painting
A condo kitchen is the only kitchen in the unit, so the sink and the appliances keep working throughout. The open boxes hold the dishes for the week the doors spend in the booth. Nobody moves out and nothing goes into storage. Once the doors return, hanging and adjusting takes an afternoon, and the hardware goes on the same day.
Melamine Is The Usual Condo Cabinet, And A Bonding Primer Handles It
Most Kingston condo kitchens are white or almond melamine with a plain slab door. A bonding primer is the only way paint holds on melamine, and thin sprayed coats of enamel over it wear well. Warm white and greige are the colours most owners choose for a small kitchen because they keep the room feeling larger. A colour change from white to navy on the lowers works in a galley with a window, and the two-tone and island page covers the pairing.
