The Dianella Polishing FAQ – all you need to know about your kitchen renovation
We fix your peeling vinyl cabinets and give them a brandnew finish.
My kitchen cabinet doors are peeling, can you fix this?
Yes, we can re-paint your peeling doors. We are experts in fixing peeling doors and offer a long lasting solution. At Dianella Polishing we refinish your peeling doors and give them a brand-new contemporary look – for a fraction of the cost you would normally have to fork out for a brand new kitchen.
Can you glue my vinyl back?
Unfortunately there is no professional way to glue the peeling vinyl wrap back onto your kitchen cupboards or doors. You could attempt to glue them back yourself, chances are there will be bubbles or lumps in the finish and the vinyl will peel again eventually.
Can’t I just re-paint my kitchen myself?
Yes you can – but why would you? We know the YouTube videos, the Instagram posts and the advice pieces from your favourite blogger that suggest to “just do it yourself”. But we strongly recommend to let us experts do it. Kitchen cabinets need to be painted in a controlled environment, to ensure the professional finish. You don’t want your kitchen to look as a DIY-project. We have more than 30 years’ of experience in French Polishing, a professional workshop and the expertise to make sure that your tired dated kitchen sparkles like a brand-new designer dream.
My cabinets are really old – can you still paint them?
There is no such thing as “too old” cabinets. Our expert polisher will come out and assess your cabinets. As long as they aren’t damaged, we can re-finish your doors and transform them. Be amazed what your tired kitchen will look like after a good coat of two pac paint.
Can you match the colour of my new kitchen cabinets?
Yes we can – we match almost any colour. Many clients love to add more functionality and storage to their existing kitchen while keeping the base of their current kitchen. A new layout and an additional pull-out pantry can revive your kitchen – and we make sure it all looks like one. This is why Dianella Polishing stand out from the rest.
Do you install new bench tops?
Yes, we liaise with trusted qualified cabinet makers, who remove your old laminate bench tops and install the new bench tops of your choice – stone bench tops in granite, marble or engineered stone, such as Caesarstone – it only depends on your choice and budget.
Can I add new space or update the layout of my kitchen?
Of course you can – our expert cabinetmakers love to assist you with design ideas. They price up any options you require: add a breakfast-bar, a pull-out pantry or a bank of drawers. Why not enhance your kitchen with some self-closing mechanisms to your drawers? Talk to your polishing expert and let us work out the details for you.
Is two pac-paint durable?
Very much! Our two-pac-paint is the highest quality finish for kitchens and cabinets. It withstands the elements of your kitchen or bathroom and the general wear and tear of everyday use. While other finishes – like your vinyl wrap are suffering after five to eight years, your painted kitchen will stand the test of time.
How long does it take to re-finish my kitchen?
We take no more than three weeks from start to finish. This includes the pick –up at your location as well as the delivery back to your home.
Contact us, upload your photos, and let’s discuss your options.
This is a good guide if you have plans of renovating your kitchen. It is detailed and makes sense but it’s also good to provide affordable options in case we can’t afford the ones mentioned.
Thank you Jeremy,
We always try to point out affordable options like painting your re-kitchen instead of paying for a whole new one…
