Why Customers Choose Joyful Cabinet Painting

Cabinet Boxes Brushed On-Site, Doors Sprayed in a Dedicated Facility

What sets Joyful Cabinet Painting apart is the hybrid cabinet refinishing process. Cabinet boxes receive meticulous hand preparation and brush-and-roller application in the home while doors and drawers travel to a dedicated spray facility for a factory-smooth finish. Every surface undergoes degreasing, sanding, priming with stain-blocking product, and multiple coats of water-based urethane enamel selected for cabinet-grade durability. The Chooz Score's review complexity indicators are at maximum because customers describe the specific multi-step process, specific finish techniques, and specific outcomes. This company earned a Chooz Score of 86.7%.

• 4.3 stars on Yelp
• Registered with the state (Entity No. 5278013)

"Lydia and Marcos were a true Joy to work with on our kitchen cabinet refinishing project. They are friendly and took a personal interest in us as people, not just as customers. Their attention to detail was exactly what we wanted and in some cases, better than we expected!" - Ron S., Google Review

Women-Owned, Veteran-Owned, Standard Seven-Day Project

Joyful Cabinet operates from the east side of Cincinnati with in-house crews trained in surface preparation, professional spraying, and precise reinstallation. The company is both women-owned and veteran-owned, and a standard project wraps up in approximately seven business days with minimal disruption to the household. Beyond painting, the team handles cabinet door replacement using high-quality HDF panel fronts, hardware upgrades, soft-close hinges, and functional accessories including rollout drawers, trash can pullouts, and spice racks. The Chooz Score's owner engagement indicators are at full marks. Clients receive a touch-up paint sample and a complimentary first-year touch-up visit, reflecting a standard of care that extends past the final brushstroke. "I waited to write this review to see how their cabinets held up over time. We purchased the Thermo fused polymer over HDF panels to replace our kitchen cabinet doors over 2 years ago. They still look brand new and are so easy to clean. Unlike our previous cabinet doors, they do not chip and do not show fingerprints." - Denise, Google Review
