Ugly Cabinets

Bruce L.

Posted

The numbers made sense for me, so I went ahead and purchased this townhouse with horribly ugly cabinets. So ugly, my painter doesn't want to mess with it and I got a quote from another handyman and he wants $1200 to sand and respray it (Labor Only) for just the kitchen.

This is a 1400Sqft townhouse, 3 bed, 2 car garage, built in 1980 and should rent for about $800/mo.

I have these ugly cabinets in the kitchen, downstairs restroom, 2nd upstairs restroom and in the master restroom.

What do you guys think I should do?
Here are some of the things I was thinking about doing.

1) Replace the downstairs cabinet with a cheap pedestal sink you could get for about $100 without faucet at Home Depot.

2) Sand the kitchen cabinets and respray them white.

3) Knock down that kitchen wall.

Not sure if I should replace the cabinets in both the upstairs bathrooms.

Downstairs Bathroom

Bathroom 2

Master Bath

Master Bath Shower Pan:
Should I remove the shower pan? Maybe it can be cleaned.

Thanks any for feedback.
