JP Cabinet Painting — Local services in Jersey City

I hired Mark and his team over two and a half years ago to refinish the cabinets in our kitchen, including a desk area and bar area--a big job! Sorry Mark it has taken me so long to post this--but I think posting now is even better to show how the cabinets look now after so long. I was very nervous and scared about doing it and had interviewed and got quotes from three other kitchen cabinet remodelers, including Mark. Mark's price was competitive with the others, but it was his patience and demeanor with me that I really appreciated--especially in the beginning of getting to know him and asking questions about his quote, how they work, how long it would take, the product they use, etc.--I had a lot of questions and Mark was so patient and very responsive. He even came out again with a sample because I was so nervous about the color and finish that I was trying to decide on. I chose Mark over the other guys I interviewed and I was so glad I did. They did an AMAZING job with our project! They always showed up on time, protected our floors and house while they were working--even though it was such a big job, we hardly had any interruption with our daily life--he and his team made sure the other rooms and areas around the kitchen were protected and his process and how they did it was seamless. It has been two years and eight months and look at my cabinets! Amazing--not one crack! No separation, no fading, no peeling--the cabinets still look factory finished and they look way better than the original finish when they were installed which was a custom glazed finish. Even the busy areas--trash can, refrigerator handle area, etc.--in all this time, they still look perfect! Mark is the best and we are so glad we found him! I have attached photos of the before and after so you can see the...

My husband and I wanted to update our kitchen and were looking into refacing the cabinets. Turned out that would cost about 3x more than painting. We contacted Mark, sent him pix of our kitchen cabinets. He then booked a convenient appt. When he arrived he thoroughly discussed what he would do and brought a finished door sample. We had a choice to have one of our own cabinet doors painted to show us what it would look like if we chose to do so. Our cabinets are an oak that are deeply ingrained.

When the job was finished, the cabinets were beautiful. Everything was left so clean as he had to spend one whole day taping EVERYTHING off from the rest of our home. That was a real concern for me: dust and fumes. I even booked an appt at a local hotel but didn't need it.

The price was very fair. He originally had to come and sand the bases of the cabinets. Then spray and spray and spray. Then when the doors were finished (after about 6-7 coats of paint at his factory), they were returned to my house and installed, along with the new hinges and pulls.

A very exciting day for us! P.S. Mark is on the job...

I'm not one who normally writes reviews, or is given to the use of superlatives, but I'm going to make an exception in this case. When Mark came to my home to estimate refinishing my kitchen cabinets, I liked the idea that I was talking to the person who would actually be working on m y cabinets, and not a salesman from a franchise chain. I was immediately impressed with his absolute commitment to quality, and pride in his workmanship. Mark, and his crew, have exceeded all my expectations. They didn't simply apply paint and change the color. They meticulously repaired all the flaws and imperfections in the cabinets, doors and drawer fronts to produce a beautiful, ultra smooth finish that must be seen and touched to be fully appreciated. The kitchen was isolated from the rest of the house and completely masked off to protect from over spray and dust. They were thorough, competent, professional and courteous. You could not ask for, nor find, a better result. I now have a beautiful new kitchen for a fraction of the price of new cabinetry. My heartfelt thanks to Mark and his crew for making my home a...
