Substrate and construction
Solid timber, veneer, MDF, melamine, high-gloss acrylic and vinyl-wrapped doors require different preparation and primer systems. Oak grain remains visible unless grain filling is separately specified.

See realistic kitchen respray costs, what changes the quotation and exactly what a professional Spray Masters transformation includes—from workshop preparation and repairs to onsite spraying, refitting and aftercare.
Prices at a glance
Most professional kitchen transformations fall between approximately £1,500 and £7,000. Size matters, but material, existing damage, failing vinyl, previous coatings, detailed profiles, islands and the surfaces included can alter the preparation far more than a simple door count suggests.

What the quotation includes
Spray Masters prices the preparation and coating work required for a durable, consistent result. Removable components are labelled and taken to our Derby workshop; fixed cabinetry is completed onsite in Nottingham.

Why two similar kitchens can cost differently
Solid timber, veneer, MDF, melamine, high-gloss acrylic and vinyl-wrapped doors require different preparation and primer systems. Oak grain remains visible unless grain filling is separately specified.
Water-damaged MDF, chipped edges, delamination, grease contamination and weak previous coatings require repair or removal before a reliable finish can be built.
Islands, glazed units, open shelving, intricate mouldings, cornices, plinths and multiple colours increase masking, preparation and application time.
Failing vinyl removal, internal cabinet spraying, extensive grain filling, worktop coatings and tile refinishing are priced separately when required. Handle redrilling is available from £7 per door or drawer, subject to construction and filling.
The Spray Masters method
Send three to six photographs, close-ups of damage, the postcode and approximate door and drawer count.
We identify likely materials, repairs, colour, sheen and what must be completed onsite or at the workshop.
Components are cleaned, repaired, sanded, primed and finished using the system selected for the substrate.
Doors and drawers are returned, aligned and inspected. Full coating resistance normally develops over 21–28 days.
Respray versus replacement
When the cabinet layout and structure remain sound, replacement can be an expensive answer to a colour or finish problem. A professional respray keeps the useful foundations while avoiding much of the demolition, waste and multi-trade disruption of a full replacement.
Honest caveat: if the carcasses are structurally unsound or the layout no longer works, replacement may be the better investment. We would rather say that than coat a bad foundation.
Nottingham coverage
We cover Nottingham and surrounding residential areas from our Derby base. Doors, drawer fronts and suitable removable components are finished at Unit 3, Perkins Yard, Mansfield Road, Derby, DE21 4AW, while fixed kitchen elements are protected and sprayed onsite.

Straight answers before you book
A typical family kitchen commonly falls within the £1,800–£2,700 promotional guide shown above. The final quotation depends on size, material, repairs, vinyl condition, previous coatings, detail and the surfaces included.
Most complete transformations take approximately five to seven working days. Complex, repair-heavy or extra-large kitchens may take longer.
Cupboards do not normally need to be emptied because openings are protected. Worktop items, fragile objects and anything obstructing access should be moved before onsite preparation.
Many can be refinished successfully after proper decontamination, controlled abrasion and a suitable adhesion-promoting primer. The exact construction and existing finish must be assessed first.
Unstable vinyl should not simply be painted over. Where suitable, it is removed and the MDF beneath is repaired, stabilised and primed before spraying. This additional labour affects the quotation.
Yes. Natural grain generally remains visible unless grain filling is separately specified. Knots, oils and resin-prone areas may require an isolating or blocker primer.
Written guarantees of up to 10 years are available on qualifying systems. Exact cover depends on the substrate, existing condition, preparation and agreed coating specification and is stated in the quotation.
Send clear photographs, the Nottingham postcode, approximate door and drawer quantities, close-ups of damage or peeling vinyl and your preferred colour. We can then provide useful initial guidance and arrange a survey where required.
Clear price. Proper specification.
