“I absolutely love the results of my newly refinished cabinets. They took the time to listen and ensured we were on the same page. THey were very meticulous and considerate to achieve the exact color I wanted. The crew was extremely professional. They are extremely accommodating to my schedule and wired efficiently.

“I can't say enough about Thomas and his team at A New Leaf. From the initial estimate (which was far more reasonable than our other bid) through the process of painting our kitchen cabinets, the whole experience was stress free. It's very refreshing in this day and age to not only have contractors in your home that are polite, respectful and first rate painters, they arrived on time every day they were at our home to do the job. Thank you Johnny and Mike for a job well done! Highly recommend!”
cameron Hunt
“Update: had the crew come back a few months later for the exterior. You won’t be disappointed. We hired A New Leaf to repaint the interior of our home, and we couldn’t be happier! Thomas, the owner, came out for an estimate and immediately set the tone for the whole experience—professional, friendly, and easy to work with. Michelle, Rusty, and Dale were phenomenal—they went above and beyond, even helping fix a few spots that needed repair before painting, which made a huge difference. The customer service was top-notch, and it was a pleasure to talk with them. Our home feels completely refreshed, like a brand-new space. We’re already planning to hire the same exact crew again in the spring for the exterior. Highly recommend!”
Kevin Rhodes
“A New Leaf did a fantastic job on my home. From the prep to the caulking to the finished product, everything was done on time, professionally, and I am very satisfied. The exterior of my home looks fantastic, and I’ve been getting compliments from all my neighbors. I even went around and looked, and it looks like everything was done with an eye for detail. I am very, very satisfied and would highly recommend this painting company to anyone.”
Melba-John Gordon
“Prompt, professional, and highly reliable. A great company to deal with!”
LIz Wallis
“Thomas gave me a quote on Tuesday and by Wednesday morning the crew was ready to paint. THey did a fabulous job and were all so nice and professional. Their work was fast and detailed. I am a satisfied customer and I've already hired his company again for a wallpaper removal project. Thanks Thomas and crew.”
Jim Blanchfield
“I initially worked with Thomas as the consultant and person who came to my house to discuss both the interior and exterior paint projects. He was great to work with, knew his info, made great suggestions, and checked back on any questions I had before I decided to use New Leaf Painting to do the job. When the projects started I worked with Billy and his crew. They were great to work with. They were on time, professional, well mannered. They set up in the garage and I was amazed at how quickly they removed old wallpaper and prepped the rooms for painting. They checked with me to make sure I was good as I was working from home. The interior turned out great. They then tackled the outside. I needed some repair work on my chimney and we discussed additional work they found after tearing off old parts. They made sure I was ok with what needed to be done. The same thing happened by my front door. Then I wanted my front door stained but they convinced me I would be unhappy with the results so we went to plan B and painted the door the same color as the shutters and it turned out great. I had friends over Labor Day Weekend and they were impressed with how well the house looked. All the workers put in plenty of hours, were courteous, cleaned up and generally went the extra mile on my projects. I appreciated the hard work and attention to detail. Overall I was extremely satisfied with the results of both the interior and exterior paint projects. Thanks New Leaf.”
Math Coach Jax
“I could not be more pleased with the exterior paint job A New Leaf performed on my home. The crew, lead by Michelle, and her workers (Rusty, Dale, and Pearson) were absolutely amazing. This crew arrived on time, kept me posted throughout each day, and were receptive to my concerns. The final product was a beautiful paint job that made my wife and I feel great about hiring them. Thank you Thomas Drake for a competitive price, and a great crew. Your company is certainly top shelf. Cheers! Andy N.”
Laura Webster
“A New Leaf Painting recently painted the exterior of our stucco home. They were fast, efficient and the crew was very nice. THey made sure to clear up the worksite well and even requested to leave materials on-site for the following day. The company was super easy to work with and we have gotten many compliments on the paint job. The finished job looks great. We would highly recommend ANLP to anyone in the North Florida area.”
Kristina Grourke
“As a first time homeowners we were nervous about this painting endeavor, however, Thomas put us at ease and walked us through every step. Our painting crew was amazing and very professional, they got the house completed in just 2 days! I would and have recommended them to anyone looking to get a quality word done. Thank you A New Leaf for the great experience!”

A Smarter Alternative to Cabinet Replacement
Want to update your kitchen without the cost and disruption of a full remodel? If your existing cabinet boxes are still in good condition, professional cabinet painting can be a practical alternative to replacing or refacing them. With the right cleaning, surface preparation, bonding primer, and durable cabinet coating, worn or dated cabinets can be refinished with a smoother, more current appearance while keeping the layout you already have.
A New Leaf Painting Contractors provides cabinet painting and refinishing in Jacksonville, FL for kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, built-ins, doors, drawer fronts, and face frames. We evaluate the existing finish first, then build the preparation and coating system around the condition of the cabinetry so the result is not just a color change, but a cleaner, more durable finish designed for everyday use.
We provide cabinet painting and refinishing throughout Jacksonville and nearby Northeast Florida communities, including Ponte Vedra Beach, Fleming Island, St. Augustine, and Orange Park.

Painting, Repairs & Finishes
Expert Painting Solutions
Looking for cabinet painters who treat your kitchen like the room it is? Cabinets are handled every day, wiped down constantly, and seen from a few inches away, so adhesion and a smooth, durable finish matter far more than they do on a wall. That’s why every cabinet project starts with an honest look at what is on your cabinets now, and why we clean, prep, and prime for that surface before any coating goes on. It is a cost-effective alternative to replacement that still looks and feels new.
The A New Leaf Standard
A fresh coat of paint is easy to promise. What you live with afterward is the difference — careful preparation, quality materials, clean lines, protected surfaces, clear communication, and a job finished with care.
Since 2010, we’ve brought that same standard of care to every project — from a single room or cabinet refinishing project to complete exteriors, commercial spaces, and concrete coatings.
Stucco cracks, wood rot, drywall damage, and other surface problems are addressed before the finish coat goes on.
Your crew stays focused on your project instead of bouncing between multiple jobs and leaving you waiting.
Floors, furniture, landscaping, and surrounding surfaces are carefully protected while we work, with clean job sites maintained throughout the project.
Our preparation and coating systems are selected around the heat, humidity, moisture, stucco, and exterior conditions common throughout Northeast Florida.
Experience the difference of working with a team dedicated to your home’s beauty and long-term protection.
Paints & Coatings
We use Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore products, chosen for the surface, the room and the Florida conditions it faces. The exact products for your project are listed in your written estimate.
Coatings for stucco, siding and trim that help resist sun, humidity, rain and mildew.
Washable finishes for kitchens, baths and high-traffic rooms, softer sheens for bedrooms.
Stain-blocking, bonding and masonry primers so the topcoat lasts.
Your Home the Way You Imagine
Color selection sets the desired mood and enhances the aesthetic appeal of your house or business. Our professional designers help customers choose shades that transform walls and bring life to your space. Whether for interiors, cabinets, or an exterior paint job, we ensure every final brushstroke delivers exceptional results.
Make Your Dream Home Affordable
Our painting company makes it easy to get started today. With simple monthly payments, you can begin your painting project now and spread costs into fair, manageable installments. No hidden fees, just great service from a professional painting company that puts customer satisfaction first.
What to expect
Cabinet painting is different from painting drywall. Cabinets are handled constantly, wiped down regularly, and viewed from a few inches away — so adhesion, surface smoothness and coating durability matter far more than they do on a wall.
The sequence below is the general shape of the work. What's actually required on any given kitchen depends on the cabinet material, the existing coating, how well a new coating will bond to it, surface contamination, any damage present, the finish you want and the coating system selected.
Before anything else, we look at what's on the cabinets now — whether it's a factory finish, a stain and topcoat, a previous paint job, laminate or thermofoil — and what condition it's in. This determines nearly everything that follows.
Countertops, backsplashes, appliances, flooring and adjacent rooms are masked and protected. Hardware is removed and kept organized. Doors and drawer fronts are typically taken off and labeled so they return to the same openings.
Kitchen cabinets accumulate cooking residue, oils and cleaning-product film — most heavily around the range and the frequently used doors. A coating applied over that residue bonds to the residue rather than to the cabinet. This step isn't optional on a kitchen.
Sanding or scuffing may be appropriate depending on the existing finish, both to establish a profile the new coating can grip and to smooth the surface. How much is needed varies considerably between a stained wood cabinet, a previously painted one and a laminate face.
Dents, chips, separated joints, worn edges and damaged areas are addressed where they can be. A coating shows a defect rather than hiding it, so anything that will be visible under the finish gets handled first.
A bonding primer may be needed depending on the substrate and the existing coating — particularly on laminate, thermofoil, slick factory finishes or where tannin bleed from certain woods is a concern. It isn't a universal step. The substrate decides.
Doors, drawer fronts, face frames, boxes, end panels and built-ins each get coated in the way that suits them. Cabinet-specific coatings are formulated for hard, cleanable surfaces that get handled daily — which is a different requirement than a wall paint is designed to meet.
Doors and drawer fronts go back to their labeled openings, hardware is reinstalled, protection comes down, and we walk the kitchen with you before the project is called complete.
Laminate and thermofoil cabinets have their own considerations. Our guide to painting laminate cabinets covers what's different about those surfaces.
Refinished cabinets change the whole feel of a kitchen without the cost and mess of a remodel.
You keep the cabinets you have and change the finish, for far less than new ones.
Vanities and built-ins get the same care, so the new look carries through the house.
Choose any color and sheen, not just what a cabinet showroom stocks.
Cabinet-grade coatings are made for surfaces that are handled every day, and they clean up easily.
Doors and drawers are labeled, returned to their own openings and checked with you at the end.
What to know about cost, prep, coatings and the process before you refinish your cabinets instead of replacing them.
Cabinet painting costs vary based on the number of doors and drawers, cabinet size, layout, condition, repairs, color change, finish system, and the amount of preparation required. We provide a written estimate that clearly outlines the scope before work begins.
Most cabinet painting projects take several days, depending on the size of the kitchen, condition of the cabinets, preparation, drying time, and finish system used. Larger kitchens or cabinets needing repairs may require additional time.
Yes, proper surface preparation is important. Cabinets are cleaned, degreased, sanded or abraded as needed, and prepared so the primer and finish coats can bond properly.
Yes, doors and drawer fronts are typically removed so they can be properly prepared and finished. Cabinet boxes and fixed components are prepared and painted in place while surrounding surfaces are protected.
Yes. Laminate, thermofoil and slick factory finishes get a bonding primer where the surface needs it, so the new coating grips. We look at the existing finish and its condition first, because that determines nearly everything that follows.
We use professional cabinet-grade coatings designed for hard, frequently handled surfaces. Product selection depends on the existing cabinet material, condition, desired finish, color, and project requirements.
In many cases, yes. Stained, varnished, or previously painted cabinets can often be refinished when the surface is sound and properly prepared. The existing finish is evaluated before work begins so the correct preparation and primer system can be used.
Yes. Major color changes are common with cabinet refinishing, but they may require additional preparation, stain-blocking primer, and multiple coats to achieve an even, durable finish.
Minor paint-related repairs such as small dents, holes, damaged edges, failed caulk, or surface imperfections can often be addressed as part of the preparation. More extensive cabinet or structural repairs may require additional evaluation.
A properly prepared and professionally applied cabinet coating is designed to withstand normal household use, cleaning, and repeated handling. Durability depends heavily on surface preparation, product selection, application, and allowing the coating to cure properly.
Cabinets can usually be put back into light use after the coating has dried sufficiently, but full cure takes longer. We explain the recommended handling and cure time for the specific coating system used on your project.
Cabinet painting can be a good option when the existing cabinet boxes and doors are in good condition and the goal is to update the color and appearance. If the layout, structure, or cabinet condition is poor, replacement or refacing may make more sense.
