Old World Stain is a California licensed painting and decorating contractor specializing in cabinet refinishing and custom wood finishes.
Our work goes beyond simply applying paint or stain. Cabinet and wood finishing requires careful preparation, an understanding of different products and materials, and attention to how color, sheen, grain, and texture work together.
From restoring traditional wood cabinetry to producing clean painted finishes and decorative effects, we approach each project with the goal of creating a finish that complements the home and stands up to everyday use.
We also provide professional interior and exterior painting, allowing homeowners to coordinate cabinetry, trim, walls, doors, and other painted surfaces through one contractor.

Replacing an entire kitchen can be expensive and disruptive. If your cabinet boxes and doors are still in good condition, refinishing or painting them can dramatically change the appearance of the room without starting over.
Old World Stain specializes in working with existing cabinetry to create finishes ranging from clean painted surfaces to rich stains, glazes, antiqued finishes, and custom color combinations.
Whether your goal is modern, traditional, rustic, natural, or completely custom, we can help create a finish that works with the rest of your home.
Cabinets make up a large portion of the visual space in a kitchen or bathroom. Changing their finish can completely change the character of the room.
If your cabinets are structurally sound, there may be no reason to remove and replace the entire system.
Choose from painted finishes, stains, glazing, antiquing, custom colors, and specialty wood finishes.
We can work toward coordinating your cabinet finish with flooring, countertops, furniture, doors, trim, and other elements.
A quality finish starts before the final coating is applied. Proper surface preparation is an essential part of the process.
Cabinet finishing is not the same as simply painting a wall. Cabinet doors, drawers, frames, and wood surfaces are handled and cleaned frequently, which makes preparation, product selection, and application especially important.
Our goal is to provide a professional finish that looks appropriate for the cabinetry, complements the surrounding space, and gives the project the attention it deserves.
We start by learning about your project, the existing surfaces, your preferred colors and finishes, and the overall look you want to achieve.
We discuss available paint, stain, glaze, sheen, and specialty finish options and help narrow down the right direction for the project.
Cabinetry and other surfaces are carefully prepared so the new finish has the proper foundation.
The selected finishing system is applied using the appropriate techniques for the material and desired result.
Once the work is complete, we review the finished project with you and address any final details.
Old World Stain provides cabinet refinishing, cabinet painting, custom wood finishing, and professional painting services throughout [Primary Service Area] and surrounding communities.
