FAQ
FAQ — Sunnyvale cabinet refinishing
How long does cabinet refinishing take in a Sunnyvale kitchen?
+
Most projects run 3–5 days. Smaller craftsman kitchens near Murphy Avenue can wrap in 3 days; larger tract homes with pantry banks and island cabinets run 4–5 days.
Can you preserve original Eichler cabinets in Sunnyvale's Fairwood and Heritage District?
+
Yes. We refinish rather than replace, keeping flat-panel doors and finger pulls in place. Wood-tone stains in low-sheen finishes maintain the mid-century aesthetic while refreshing surfaces that have faded or dried over the years.
Can you work in an occupied Eichler atrium-kitchen layout?
+
We can. We contain overspray to the work zone and schedule door spraying off-site so the kitchen remains partially functional during the project. Atrium ventilation helps with dry time.
Do we need to move out during the project?
+
No. Cabinet boxes stay in place; doors are removed for spraying. Kitchen access is limited on active work days but the home stays livable throughout the project.
Sunnyvale's housing stock spans Eichlers in Fairwood and the Heritage District, 1960s-80s mid-century tract homes spread across the city, and craftsman bungalows near downtown Murphy Avenue. Each cabinet type has its own prep requirements — refinishing handles all of them for less than full replacement.

What we paint in Sunnyvale kitchens
We refinish upper and lower cabinets, kitchen islands, pantry banks, bath vanities, and built-ins. Sunnyvale's Fairwood and Heritage District neighborhoods have Eichler stock with the characteristic flat-panel slab doors and finger pulls that need specific prep to hold paint without peeling. Older craftsman homes near Murphy Avenue often have original raised-panel uppers in narrower kitchens. Mid-century tract homes from the 1960s and 70s — the bulk of Sunnyvale's owner-occupied stock — typically have builder-grade face-frame cabinets in oak or birch that respond well to degloss-and-respray without full tear-out.
Our cabinet refinishing process
We remove every door and drawer, label hardware by position, and sand or degloss before priming. Cabinet boxes get hand-sanded and brushed in place with dust containment around the kitchen. Doors go to a mobile spray booth on-site or off-site. Enamels: SW Emerald Urethane Trim Enamel, BM Advance, and Dunn-Edwards Aristoshield over INSL-X Cabinet Coat or SW Extreme Bond primer. Sunnyvale's cure times are more predictable than coastal SF, but the marine layer still affects western-facing kitchens — we account for that before rehanging.
Sheens and finishes for Sunnyvale kitchens
Satin is the most common choice for Sunnyvale kitchens — it cleans easily and doesn't show fingerprints the way gloss does. Semi-gloss works well for bath vanities and for Eichler slab faces where the sheen complements the flat geometry. For Fairwood and Heritage District homeowners who want to keep the Eichler aesthetic intact, low-sheen wood-tone stains — walnut, natural birch, teak — are an option that preserves the original character rather than painting over it. Tech-family households in newer infill areas tend to favor cooler whites and grays in satin for a clean, contemporary result.
What drives the cost in Sunnyvale
Door and drawer count is the primary variable. Eichler slab doors require specific bonding primer — less porous than raised-panel oak, prep takes attention. Thermofoil in some tract homes needs different prep than raw wood. Color changes add a sealer coat. Hardware retention versus replacement affects labor. Murphy Avenue craftsman kitchens run a shorter scope than larger tech-family homes with full pantry banks.
Cabinet projects we've done in Sunnyvale
We've refinished Eichler slab-birch cabinets in Fairwood where owners wanted to keep the mid-century look with a warm walnut stain, and handled full respray projects on 1970s tract-home oak uppers in Heritage District where the original orange-oak tone had become dated. Near Murphy Avenue, we've recoated craftsman-era uppers in older bungalow kitchens where original finishes had worn through at the door edges.
