How Much Does a Kitchen Respray Cost?

If your kitchen looks good in layout but has lost its fresh look or colour, you might not need a full replacement. A professional kitchen respray can give you a brand-new finish for a fraction of the cost. But how much should you expect to pay in 2025? Let’s explore.

 Average Cost of Kitchen Respray in the UK

According to industry guides:

• Typical UK cost for a kitchen respray: £1,500 to £4,000 for many projects. 

• Some specialist firms list full onsite services from around £1200 for very small kitchens. 

• For larger kitchens or more complex finishes (many doors, islands, premium finishes), costs can go above £4,000 to £5,000+. 

In short: for most homeowners the budget is £1,500-£3,500 depending on size, condition, and specification.

 What Factors Affect the Cost?

Several key elements will influence your final quote:

- Size & Number of Units

More cabinet doors, drawers, panels = more labour, materials and time. 

- Condition of Existing Units

If your doors are worn, warped, peeling, or need heavy prep, the cost goes up. 

- Materials & Finish

Solid wood, MDF, or laminate all differ in prep and cost. Intricate door styles require more work. Premium finishes (high gloss, multiple colours) may add cost. 

- Colour & Finish Type

Simple, muted colours may cost less; dramatic colour changes (dark to light, multi-colour) or high gloss finish may increase cost. 

- Location & Access

Regional labour cost, travel, site access, whether doors are removed and sprayed off-site vs in-place all matter.

- Extras

Handles/hardware upgrades, end panels, islands, worktops or other finishing touches will increase the quote.

 Typical Cost Ranges for Leicestershire Homes

For homes in Leicestershire (Leicester, Loughborough, Market Harborough etc):

• Small kitchen (under ~10 doors/drawers): ~ £1,200-£1,600

• Medium kitchen (~10-20 units): ~ £1,600-£2,100

• Large kitchen / many units / premium finishes: ~ £2,100-£4,000+

These are ballpark figures — each project will vary based on details.

 Why It’s Often a Smarter Choice Than a Full Replacement

• Cost Savings: A full kitchen replacement might cost £12,000-£25,000+. Respray gives huge value. 

• Less Disruption: Faster turnaround, less trades, minimal mess.

• Sustainability: Reuses existing cabinets, fewer materials wasted.
