Hand-Painted Kitchen Transformation – Portstewart


Project Overview: A Fresh Coastal Transformation in coleraine
Our Portrush client loved their kitchen layout but felt the dark, tired cupboards no longer matched the fresh, coastal look they wanted for their home. Rather than replacing the units, they chose our professional hand-painting service to give the kitchen a new lease of life. By revitalizing the existing cabinetry, we were able to deliver a stunning and cost-effective transformation that perfectly captured their vision of a bright and inviting coastal-style kitchen.

Hand-Painted Kitchen Transformation in Coleraine
Our Coleraine client loved their kitchen layout but noticed that the plastic covering on the cupboard doors was peeling and the overall finish looked tired and outdated. Rather than replacing the units, they chose our professional hand-painting service to refresh the cabinetry. By carefully removing the damaged surfaces, preparing each door, and applying durable, high-quality paint, we delivered a stunning, cost-effective transformation that perfectly captured their vision of a bright, modern, and inviting kitchen.


Hand-Painted Kitchen Transformation – Portstewart
The Challenge
This Portstewart kitchen had solid cupboards but an outdated finish that made the space feel dark and tired. The homeowners wanted a modern, lighter kitchen without replacing their existing cabinets.
Our Process
To achieve a durable professional finish we followed our preparation-first process:
- Careful removal of handles and hardware
- Deep cleaning and degreasing of all cupboard surfaces
- Sanding to ensure paint adhesion
- Specialist cabinet primer application
- Multiple coats of durable furniture-grade paint
- Reassembly and finishing details
The Result
The kitchen was transformed into a fresh, modern space with a smooth hand-painted finish. The new colour brightened the entire room while retaining the quality of the original cabinetry.


Interior Painting Project – Coleraine
The Brief
A homeowner in Coleraine wanted to refresh their living room, hallway and staircase with a clean, modern look.
What We Did
- Full surface preparation
- Crack filling and sanding
- Walls and ceilings painted in neutral tones
- Woodwork refinished for crisp contrast
The Outcome
The finished space now feels brighter, cleaner and more welcoming, with sharp lines and a smooth professional finish throughout.


Kitchen Cupboard Painting – Portrush
The Starting Point
This Portrush kitchen had strong solid cupboards but a dated colour that didn’t suit the rest of the home.
Our Work

- Hand-applied furniture-quality paint
- Hardware refitted after curing
The Result
The transformation gave the kitchen a bespoke hand-painted look at a fraction of the cost of replacing the units.
