Our shop is at 1570 Edgewood Lane in Milford, about 16.1 miles northwest of Novi. Hop on I-96 and it’s roughly a 25-minute run, passing through New Hudson on the way, so Novi stays well within the area we serve.
That proximity pays off on a kitchen project. We can get out to measure and quote quickly, the crew arrives on schedule, and a return trip to adjust a door or touch up a drawer front later is a short trip rather than a cross-county haul. Refinished cabinets are something you use every single day, so having the people who did the work close by is worth a lot, and there’s no out-of-area trip charge padding your quote.
Novi began as a township in 1832, carved out of Farmington Township. There are colorful stories about the name, including a toll-gate “Number Six” legend, though the dates don’t line up, and it more likely came from a resident’s suggestion of a short, simple name. For its first century it stayed mostly farmland.
Then it took off. Novi incorporated as a city in 1969, and the opening of Twelve Oaks Mall in 1977 helped turn it into one of the fastest-growing cities in Michigan. The population climbed from under 20,000 in 1990 to more than 66,000 today, with farmland giving way to subdivision after subdivision. The city is still known for the bright red water tower marking it as the birthplace of the Novi Special race car, and for the Suburban Collection Showplace and Lakeshore Park along Walled Lake. Several districts serve the city, including the highly rated Novi Community School District.
Novi’s growth pattern is the key to its kitchens. Most of its homes went up in waves of subdivision building from the 1980s through the 2000s, which means a huge share of local kitchens are now 20 to 40 years old, full of the builder-grade oak and maple cabinetry that defined those decades. Those boxes are usually solid and worth keeping, so painting the doors, drawer fronts, and boxes in a current color is the fastest way to modernize the room, at a fraction of what new cabinetry costs.
Novi homes also tend toward styles with a lot of detail, and the kitchens follow suit, often large, with islands and plenty of cabinetry. The more doors and drawer fronts a kitchen has, the more refinishing saves against replacement, and the more a clean, factory-smooth finish stands out.
That finish is where the work shows. Sprayed and properly cured, it lays down even and hard-wearing, without the brush marks that give away a quick repaint, and the whole project skips the demolition and the weeks without a kitchen that a full remodel brings. In a market where buyers judge a home by its kitchen, an updated one is also among the highest-return improvements before a sale.
Novi homeowners tend to care about how their homes and neighborhoods look, and we hold our work to that standard. We’re in the area constantly, so the quality of a kitchen we refinished follows us from one street to the next. When your home sits in a neighborhood where finishes are easy to compare, getting it right the first time is the only approach that makes sense to us.

Novi has a solid mix of older homes — especially near the historic downtown and along the Huron River corridor — and many still have their original cabinetry.

It’s not always obvious when your cabinets are ready for a refresh. Here are some of the most common signs it may be time to refinish.
Cabinet refinishing in Novi typically ranges from $5,000 to $10,000+ for most kitchens. Smaller projects, like a bathroom vanity or laundry room cabinets, can fall well below that range, while larger kitchens with extensive prep work or repairs can exceed it.
The exact cost depends on a few key factors:

Hiring a cabinet refinisher is a significant investment in your home’s appearance and value. Here are the questions we hear most often from local homeowners.
That's one of the most popular updates we do. RDP Pro Paint paints oak kitchen cabinets in Novi colonials a clean white or modern neutral, using a degrease-sand-prime process and an industrial-grade finish so the white doesn't yellow or chip with everyday use.
Cabinet refinishing in Novi is quoted per kitchen, based on the number of doors and drawers, their condition, and the finish. RDP Pro Paint gives you a free, detailed estimate up front, and refinishing typically costs a fraction of new cabinetry.
In newer Novi subdivisions like Island Lake or Greenwood Oaks, the cabinet boxes are usually in great shape and well worth refinishing. RDP Pro Paint restores them to a factory-smooth finish, which gives you a fresh look without the cost and disruption of replacement.
For Novi's newer subdivisions, clean whites, soft greiges, and a deeper navy island tend to show best and appeal to buyers. RDP Pro Paint offers full custom color matching, so we can help you land on a shade that fits your home and the local market.
Yes. The solid-wood cabinets in a 1970s Village Oaks ranch are excellent candidates for refinishing. RDP Pro Paint updates them with a modern color and durable finish so a dated kitchen feels current again.
