Pro Touch Painting provides cabinet refinishing in Merritt Island, FL with licensed, insured Brevard County crews. We inspect and prepare the surface, specify the coating system in writing, and provide a free itemized estimate. Pro Touch Painting refinishes, resurfaces and paints kitchen and bathroom cabinets throughout Brevard County, FL — doors and drawer fronts are degreased, sanded, primed and sprayed for a factory-smooth finish, typically for a fraction of the cost of new cabinets or of refacing.
Merritt Island sits between the Indian and Banana Rivers, so nearly every home here is exposed to salt air from two sides. Coating selection and thorough washing matter more here than almost anywhere else in Brevard County.
Honey oak, maple and dark espresso cabinets date a Florida kitchen faster than anything else in the room. Refinishing (also called cabinet resurfacing) keeps the boxes you already have and replaces only the finish, so a full kitchen is usually done in a few days instead of the weeks a remodel or a refacing job takes — and at a small share of the price.
We wash salt residue off before painting — skipping that step is why coastal repaints fail early.
Epoxy and textured deck coatings hold up to chlorine, sun and bare feet around Merritt Island pools.
Cabinet refinishing in Merritt Island is not the same job it would be inland. Brevard County homes deal with salt air blowing off the Indian River and the Atlantic, months of high humidity, daily summer rain and relentless UV. Those conditions shorten the life of the wrong product dramatically — and they punish shortcuts in prep even harder. A coating that fails early in Merritt Island almost never failed because of the paint; it failed because the surface underneath was not clean, dry, sound and primed before the finish went on.
So we start with assessment, not with a price. We inspect the existing finish for adhesion, chalking and mildew, check for moisture and hidden water damage, identify substrate type, and flag the repairs that have to happen first — stucco cracks, failed caulk joints, soft wood, drywall damage, or slab prep on coating work. You get a written estimate that itemizes prep, products, coat count, crew size and timeline, so nothing shifts once work begins.
The work itself follows a fixed sequence: protect the space and surroundings, clean and de-gloss or wash, complete every repair, prime the areas that need it, then apply two full finish coats of premium coatings selected for Florida coastal exposure. We spray, roll or brush based on what the surface calls for rather than what is fastest, and we hand-cut lines for a crisp edge. Nothing gets signed off until we have walked the job with you and touched up anything you point out.
Practical details matter as much as the finish. Our Merritt Island crews are licensed, insured and background-checked, arrive when we said we would, cover and mask thoroughly, and clean the site daily instead of at the end. You will have one point of contact for the whole project and a written 2-year warranty on workmanship. Free estimates are available across Merritt Island and the wider Space Coast, and every homeowner is welcome — including LGBTQ+ families.
Doors and drawer fronts are removed, labeled and cleaned of years of cooking grease — the step that decides whether paint bonds.
Every surface is scuff-sanded and coated with a bonding primer made for slick factory finishes and raw oak grain.
Doors are sprayed off-site or in a controlled area in thin, even coats, so there are no brush marks or roller texture.
Hardware goes back on, doors are re-hung and aligned, and your kitchen is left clean and usable.

What was actually prepped, primed and coated — the same detail that goes in your written estimate.
Cabinet refinishing · Merritt Island, FL
Doors, drawer fronts and the hood surround were removed and labeled, degreased, scuff-sanded and bonding-primed, then sprayed a soft sage green in a durable cabinet enamel. Boxes were masked and sprayed in place and the brass hardware was reinstalled to the original layout.

Prep is the part of the job you never see once we are gone, and it is the only reason a finish lasts in Brevard County's heat, salt and humidity. This is the sequence we follow on every cabinet refinishing job — it is written into your estimate, not left to chance.
Every door, drawer front and piece of hardware is removed, labeled and bagged so it all returns exactly where it started.
Doors around the range carry years of cooking oil. They are cleaned with a dedicated degreaser and rinsed — this single step decides whether the finish bonds or peels at the handles.
Doors, drawer fronts, boxes and face frames are scuff-sanded so the primer has tooth. Factory clear coats are slick; primer alone will not hold on them.
Dings, old hardware holes and grain that will telegraph through are filled and sanded flat. Open-grain oak is grain-filled when you want a fully smooth look.
Countertops, appliances, backsplash and floors are masked and the work area is put under containment with filtered ventilation before any spraying starts.
Doors are sprayed flat on racks and left to cure; boxes and face frames are sprayed in place. Your kitchen stays usable in the evenings throughout.
We spec products for Florida exposure, not for the lowest material cost. Here is the system, layer by layer, and why each layer is there.
Cleaner
Removes the cooking film that causes adhesion failure at the handles and around the stove.
Two passes
Primer
Grips slick factory finishes and stops tannin from bleeding yellow through a white topcoat.
One to two
Finish
Cures to a hard, factory-smooth film that stands up to fingernails, cleaners and daily use.
Two, sanded between
Islands and accents
A navy or sage island against white perimeter cabinets is the most requested Brevard look and costs no extra labor beyond the color change.

Cabinet refinishing is priced by door and drawer count, not by kitchen square footage — a big kitchen with simple slab doors can cost less than a small kitchen with 40 detailed doors.
The main driver. We count them on the walk and put the count in the estimate.
Raised-panel and detailed profiles take longer to sand and spray than shaker or slab.
Open-grain oak needs grain filling for a smooth finish; maple and MDF do not.
A second color means separate masking and spray sessions.
Painting inside the boxes and the shelves is optional and quoted separately.
New pulls, or filling and re-drilling for a different hole spacing, is its own line.
