⸻ Cabinet Refinishing Specialists
Give Your Existing Cabinets a Completely New Look
Replacing an entire kitchen can be expensive and disruptive. If your cabinet boxes and doors are still in good condition, refinishing or painting them can dramatically change the appearance of the room without starting over.
Old World Stain specializes in working with existing cabinetry to create finishes ranging from clean painted surfaces to rich stains, glazes, antiqued finishes, and custom color combinations.
Whether your goal is modern, traditional, rustic, natural, or completely custom, we can help create a finish that works with the rest of your home.
Why Homeowners Choose Cabinet Refinishing
Transform the Look of the Room
Cabinets make up a large portion of the visual space in a kitchen or bathroom. Changing their finish can completely change the character of the room.
Keep Quality Existing Cabinetry
If your cabinets are structurally sound, there may be no reason to remove and replace the entire system.
More Finish Options
Choose from painted finishes, stains, glazing, antiquing, custom colors, and specialty wood finishes.
Custom Color Matching
We can work toward coordinating your cabinet finish with flooring, countertops, furniture, doors, trim, and other elements.
Professional Preparation
A quality finish starts before the final coating is applied. Proper surface preparation is an essential part of the process.

⸻ Refinish or Replace ⸻
Should You Refinish or Replace Your Cabinets?
Not every kitchen needs completely new cabinetry.
RefinishWhen it may be an excellent fit
- You are happy with the existing layout
- The cabinets remain structurally sound
- You want to update the appearance of your kitchen or bathroom
ReplaceWhen it may make more sense
- You want to dramatically change the layout
- You want to add or remove cabinetry
- Damaged cabinet boxes need to be replaced
During your consultation, we can evaluate the existing cabinetry from a finishing perspective and discuss what is possible with the surfaces you already have.
⸻ More Than Cabinets ⸻
Professional Painting for the Rest of Your Home
While cabinetry and wood finishing are at the center of what we do, Old World Stain also provides general interior and exterior painting. This makes it easier to coordinate a cabinet transformation with other improvements throughout the home.

Details Make the Difference in a Quality Finish
Cabinet finishing is not the same as simply painting a wall. Cabinet doors, drawers, frames, and wood surfaces are handled and cleaned frequently, which makes preparation, product selection, and application especially important.
Our goal is to provide a professional finish that looks appropriate for the cabinetry, complements the surrounding space, and gives the project the attention it deserves.

⸻ Frequently Asked Questions ⸻
Cabinet Refinishing & Wood Finishing FAQs
What is the difference between cabinet refinishing and cabinet painting?
Cabinet painting changes the existing surface to a painted color, while refinishing is a broader category that may include painting, staining, glazing, restoring, or applying another specialty finish.
Can you change stained cabinets to painted cabinets?
In many cases, yes. The existing finish and cabinet material need to be evaluated first so the proper preparation and finishing system can be selected.
Can you refinish cabinets without replacing them?
Yes. If the existing cabinetry is structurally sound, refinishing can dramatically change its appearance while keeping the existing cabinet boxes, doors, or other components depending on the project.
Do you offer custom stain colors?
Yes. Old World Stain provides staining and color-matching services for cabinetry and other wood surfaces.
Can you match an existing cabinet or wood finish?
We offer color matching and can work toward reproducing or coordinating with an existing finish. Exact results can depend on the type of wood, existing coating, age, and other characteristics of the surface.
Do you offer distressed or antiqued finishes?
Yes. Distressed and antiqued wood finishes are among the specialty finishing services available.
Do you work on more than kitchen cabinets?
Yes. Depending on the project, we can work with bathroom cabinetry, built-ins, architectural woodwork, doors, and other appropriate wood surfaces.
Do you also paint homes?
Yes. In addition to cabinet and wood finishing, Old World Stain provides general interior and exterior painting.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Old World Stain is a California C-33 Painting and Decorating contractor, license #1146920.
