Σχετικά με την υπηρεσία
Not every piece of furniture needs replacing. A solid wood chest of drawers from a family home, kitchen cabinets with good carcasses but a dated colour, or a set of dining chairs bought second-hand at a village market can all look completely different with the right finish. Painting furniture is a cost-conscious, sustainable way to update a room while keeping the pieces you already like.
The secret to painted furniture that lasts is in the layers you never see. Glossy lacquer, varnish and laminate resist new paint, so without proper sanding and a bonding primer, a fresh finish can chip as soon as a drawer is opened. Professional refinishers take the time to prepare each surface and choose paints that cope with daily handling.
Pieces commonly painted
- Kitchen cabinets: doors, drawer fronts and visible frames, a popular alternative to a full kitchen replacement.
- Wardrobes and dressers: bedroom furniture updated to match a new colour scheme.
- Tables and chairs: dining sets, side tables and benches refreshed or colour-matched.
- Built-in units: shelving, bookcases and fitted cupboards painted in place.
- Outdoor furniture: wooden and metal garden pieces protected against sun and weather.
- Children’s furniture: cots, desks and toy chests, ideally with products suited to kids’ rooms.
How a professional finish is built
Hardware such as handles and hinges is removed and labelled. Surfaces are degreased, which matters especially for kitchen cabinets, and then sanded to give the primer something to grip. Dents and chips are filled. A bonding or stain-blocking primer follows, since some woods, like oak and pine, can bleed tannins or knots through light colours. Finally, two or more top coats are applied by brush, roller or spray, with light sanding between coats for a smooth feel.
You can choose between modern water-based enamels, which are low-odour and resist yellowing, oil-based paints for very hard-wearing surfaces, or chalk and mineral paints for a softer, matt or distressed look, usually sealed with wax or a clear coat. Outdoor pieces need exterior-grade products that resist UV, especially in the strong Cyprus sun.
What affects the price
- Number and size of pieces: a single bedside table is a very different job from a full kitchen.
- Surface type: solid wood, veneer, laminate, MDF or metal each need different preparation.
- Condition: damage to fill, old peeling paint or varnish that has to be stripped.
- Finish: brush, roller or spray, the number of colours, and distressed or decorative effects.
- Location: working on site at your home or taking pieces to a workshop.

Γιατί να επιλέξετε αυτή την υπηρεσία
A Finish That Resists Chipping
Degreasing, sanding and bonding primers help the paint grip varnished, laminated and lacquered surfaces, so drawers and doors withstand everyday use.
Refresh Instead of Replace
Repainting solid furniture or sound kitchen cabinets updates your space while keeping pieces you like and avoiding the cost of new units.
Style Options to Suit You
Choose a smooth modern enamel, a soft chalk finish, a two-tone design or a gently distressed look, discussed with your painter before work begins.
Made for the Sun
For terrace and garden furniture, painters use exterior-grade, UV-resistant products that stand up better to Cyprus summers and winter rain.
