Thornton is part of our Denver Metro service area. Our shop and spray facility are in Fort Collins, and we bring the same process north Denver homeowners would otherwise drive across town for: pull the doors, spray them properly, bring them back.
We’re not based in Thornton. Our shop and spray booth are in Fort Collins, and our crews travel across the Denver Metro for consultations, pickup, and delivery.
The process doesn’t change based on distance. Every door gets pulled, sprayed at our facility, and brought back, whether the kitchen is next door to our shop or across the metro.
due for its own refresh. Either way, the fix is usually the finish, not the frame.
Where we work in and around Thornton
Cabinet Resurfacing keeps your current cabinet style and door design, refreshing the color and finish with contractor-grade products sprayed at our shop. Cabinet Refacing installs new, custom-made doors and drawer fronts on your existing cabinet boxes, same layout, new look.
Cabinet resurfacing updates the color and finish of your existing cabinets while keeping their current style.
Using premium contractor-grade products and proven techniques, we restore and refresh your cabinetry for a durable, long-lasting finish.
This process also includes repairing minor damage caused by years of use, giving your cabinets a renewed look without the high cost of replacement.
Cabinet refacing replaces your cabinet doors and drawer fronts with new, custom-made designs while maintaining your existing cabinet boxes.
This allows you to completely transform the look and feel of your kitchen, without changing the footprint.
With contractor-grade materials and a factory-quality finish, refacing gives you the beauty of brand-new cabinetry at a fraction of the cost of a full remodel.
A typical project with us runs around $9,000. A painter will usually come in closer to $4,500 up front, and a full cabinet replacement runs around $35,000.
The painter’s lower number doesn’t hold. A painted finish lasts four to five years, and three repaint cycles over fifteen years lands around $13,500, for a shorter-lived result than a sprayed finish. Ours carries a ten-year warranty and typically lasts fifteen years or more.
Your number depends on the size and condition of your kitchen. The in-home quote is free and there’s no obligation.

From start to finish, this was one of the best experiences we have had with a home project. The entire team was kind, professional, and so attentive to detail. Our kitchen now looks completely brand new, we honestly cannot believe the transformation! They went above and beyond, especially with the top of the cabinets, and the final result looks like it was always part of the original build.

A job well done! The finish is beautiful. The staff prepared me well for what to expect during the week that they worked. Jim the co-owner supervised the project and handled the finishing touches. Great attention to detail. Jen, the other co-owner, comes to the house to help with colors and other decisions and gives the final price which we felt was very fair.

Summit Cabinet Coatings is excellent at what they do, and we love the end result of our refacing project. They take care in their work, and were great at communicating with us, making sure we knew all of the steps in the project, that we understood the schedule, and that we had what we needed in making any design decisions.
