How long does a typical kitchen transformation take?

How soon can I use my kitchen after the respray is finished?

Is a spray finish better than hand painting?

Kitchen Colours & Finishes (Design & Durability)
Can you match Farrow & Ball or Little Greene colors?
Yes, we can accurately match colours from Farrow & Ball, Little Greene, and the full RAL chart. Our coatings are mixed to your chosen shade and applied using a professional spray process, giving you a consistent, durable finish that looks like a factory-applied coating.
What are the trending kitchen colorus for 2026?
Popular kitchen colours include soft neutrals, warm whites, and deeper tones like navy, charcoal, and dark green. Two-tone kitchens, combining lighter upper units with darker lower units or islands, are also widely used in modern designs.
Do I have to choose a matte or glossy finish?
Most kitchens are finished in satin, which offers a balance between durability and appearance. Matte finishes provide a softer look, while higher sheen finishes are easier to clean but show more surface detail.
How can I be sure the colour will look right in my specific kitchen?
We can provide guidance based on lighting, layout, and existing materials. Natural and artificial lighting can significantly affect how a colour appears, so choosing the right tone for your space is key.
Should my kitchen island match the rest of my cabinets?
Not necessarily. Many modern kitchens use a contrasting island colour to create visual interest and define the space, while others prefer a uniform look for a cleaner finish.
Will my white or light coloured kitchen turn yellow over time?
No, not when professional coatings are used. High-quality 2K finishes are designed to resist yellowing and maintain colour stability over time, even in environments with heat and regular use.

uPVC Respray FAQs (Cost, Durability & Options)
How much does uPVC spraying cost?
uPVC respraying typically costs significantly less than full replacement, often around 70–80% cheaper depending on the project. For example, a standard front door respray may start from €300–€400, while full window projects are priced based on the number of openings and condition.
Is spraying uPVC windows a good idea?
Yes, if the frames are structurally sound. A professional uPVC respray restores colour and finish without replacing windows or doors, making it a cost-effective way to modernise your home exterior.
Can you spray uPVC windows and doors?
Yes, uPVC windows, doors, fascias, and conservatories can all be professionally resprayed using specialist coatings that bond directly to the surface.
How long does spray painting uPVC windows last?
A professionally applied uPVC respray typically lasts 10–15 years, depending on exposure and maintenance.
Can you colour match my uPVC?
Yes, we can match a wide range of colours including RAL and designer shades. This allows you to update white or dated frames to modern colours such as anthracite grey or black.

For full details, see our 5-year warranty page.
What is excluded from the 5 year warranty?
The warranty does not cover damage caused by misuse, impact, excessive heat, or improper cleaning products. Normal wear and tear in high-use areas is also excluded.
How do I maintain my kitchen to keep the warranty valid?
Regular cleaning with mild, non-abrasive products is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, as these can affect the surface over time.
