Kitchen Cabinet Color Trends for Your Bay Area Home

Kitchen Cabinet Color Trends for Your Bay Area Home

If you follow our project blogs, or other home improvement resources like Houzz.com, you know that painted kitchen cabinets are hugely popular. And, unlike more fickle trends that come and go in a flash, this one just isn’t going anywhere.

Painting your cabinets opens the doors to endless options, possibilities, and combinations that can be tailored to your specific home. Working with your professional painting company is a fun opportunity to add real value and style in a cost-effective way, while radically transforming this central space.

And, it all starts with just a bit of inspiration.

What Are the Most Popular Kitchen Cabinet Colors?

White and grey are leading the pack.

Why?

While they might not be the most visually exciting all on their own, they offer a timeless neutrality. And, with this neutrality comes the ability to mix in other colors and textures without making the space busy.

Above and below are examples of recent projects we’ve completed that showcase exactly how much style a clean, white finish can deliver.

If white and grey aren’t cutting it for you on their own, here are a few more stylish ideas to consider:

  • Make your island a statement piece - If your cabinets are neutral, your island could be your ticket to introducing vibrant color in a limited way.

  • Different colors for your upper and lower cabinets - Typically a darker color is chosen for the lower sections and a light option for the upper cabinets. This is an attractive way to mix up the palette a bit.

  • Add something natural - Natural wood shelving, stools, or even a section of butcher block countertop (perhaps on your island) adds a nice touch. This is very stylish, and it also can work well with a variety of surrounding colors.

Talk To Your Local Painting Company

As we touched on above, the very best decision you can make is to find and partner with a quality local painting company. There’s no margin for error or grace for amateur work when it comes to your cabinets; they can be tough surfaces to smoothly transform in a truly lasting way.

Customer Reviews

“MB Jessee painters are stellar! As a designer I've worked with numerous companies over the years, and MB Jessee is a top-notch firm. From the first phone call to the final clean up, every person is courteous, professional, and hard working. The owner, Matt, is a charitable leader who has instilled his team with integrity and honesty providing the customer with a first class experience at a fair price with a paint job that is guaranteed to last. I highly recommend MB Jessee. Thank you Matt and your STAR crew-Daniel, Rigoberto, Vicente, Edy, Pedro, and Mario, for a job well executed! Cynthia Brian, ASID, Starstyle® Productions, llc”

“The finish on my kitchen cabinets had failed, becoming tacky and grimy around the handles. M B Jessee gave me a reasonable quote, far below some others, and did an outstanding job, striping the original varnish and refinishing with a new lacquer finish. The cabinets look like new. Work was done 1 day faster than estimated. The crew was extremely hard-working, considerate, and neat. Highly recommend M B Jessee.”

— Michelle & Rivers Gee

“My entire experience with MB Jesse was very professional. The crew were very friendly and super accommodating of my ridiculous schedule and geriatric pets in the house. The finished product, which was pretty much my entire house, far exceeds my expectations. Would definitely work with them again!”

— Heather Jordan

“Just wanted to let you know that the crew was great to have around the house for the past two weeks. All three of them were professional, courteous, and attentive to my thoughts/concerns and were extremely knowledgeable. They paid great attention to the detail and it shows.”

— Mark & Roberta Gross

“Today I received a beautiful bouquet from your company. It was totally unexpected and very much appreciated--a lovely surprise. Also today, your crew finished my job. I am so pleased with all their fine work. Richard is absolutely amazing and a total delight to work with. He was also extremely helpful during the paint color process. The interior work in my home far exceeded my expectations. A big thank you to you and the crew for an outstanding job. Thank you, thank you for a terrific job!”

“Just had MB Jessee paint the interior of our house and they did a wonderful job. They tackled some crazy wallpaper as well as painted some very high ceilings and walls. The whole process was quick and they did a great job! We are very pleased. I was also very impressed by the crew. They were very personable, kind and actually took pride in the work they were doing. In one of our conversations with the lead Ricardo, he actually told me he was very proud of how the rooms had turned out. I agree sir! It turned out great and it's not often you hear someone thinking of your home like they would theirs, and putting that level of work and quality into it. That made a huge difference in how I viewed this company. Ricardo, you were fantastic and thank you for the great job, we will be using you again.”

“The people at M.B. Jessee are great – from the painters to the office staff to Matt. Talk about leadership from the top.”

— Kevin Ames, Mark Becker Homes

“Very easy to work with, they did an outstanding job with our project of re-painting our painting our kitchen cabinets. Given the scope of the job and that our kitchen is roughly half of our upstairs living area they did a fantastic job of minimizing the mess. Workmanship was top notch, would definitely recommend.”

— Vince Scola

“The entire MB Jessee team is courteous, efficient and professional. From scheduling and estimating to the crew managers and crew, they all did an excellent job on a small (but complicated) two room project in my house. I'm already thinking about getting them scheduled for the next project in the spring.”

— Cari Cheney

“It was a great experience working with MB Jessee. The crew was careful and thorough as they painted the house, sealed stucco cracks, repaired dry-rotted wood, stained the deck, etc. Robert, Gersson, Jose, and all of the people involved in the process from the estimate to the job completion were friendly and professional.”
