Laminate wardrobes can be practical, but let’s face it—many of them look dated or simply don’t match your interior. Whether you’ve inherited them in a rental property or just want a style upgrade, there’s no need to replace them. With the right tools and techniques, they can be professionally transformed into beautiful, statement pieces.

At J&D Sprayers & Makeovers, we specialise in giving tired wardrobes a new lease of life—whether they’re MDF, solid wood, or laminate. Here’s how we professionally repaint laminate wardrobes and what makes the difference in our finish.

Why Painting Laminate Works

Laminate may seem tricky to paint, but with proper preparation and specialist materials, it’s entirely possible to achieve a flawless finish that’s durable and elegant.

Our clients often come to us with freestanding or built-in wardrobes that are:

• Structurally fine but look outdated 
• Poorly matched to the rest of the room 
• Hard to remove or replace in rented properties 

Instead of replacing them, we give them a high-quality, long-lasting spray finish in the colour and sheen of your choice.

Our Process – How We Professionally Refinish Laminate Wardrobes

1. Careful Preparation – We protect surrounding surfaces, remove doors and hardware, and tape off any delicate areas. Clothing can be left inside—we cover and seal it with protective film or sheeting during the process.
2. Surface Cleaning and Degreasing – Even if laminate doesn’t need sanding, it must be properly cleaned and degreased to ensure the paint adheres.
3. Priming with Specialist Adhesion Primer – We apply a high-adhesion bonding primer designed specifically for laminate surfaces. This ensures the paint bonds properly and resists peeling or chipping.
4. Professional Spray Painting – Using state-of-the-art spray equipment, we apply a smooth, even finish. Most projects require two coats of top-quality PU or hybrid enamel paint, available in any colour—including modern tones like warm whites, greys, or custom pinks.
5. Finishing Touches – We reinstall new or existing handles (our clients often upgrade to brushed brass or matte black) and apply any final trim work or detailing for a seamless finish.

Why Choose Spray Painting Over DIY

While DIY painting is possible, laminate furniture requires specialist primers, controlled environments, and professional tools for long-term durability. At J&D Sprayers & Makeovers, we:

• Work in a dust-free spray booth for a flawless finish 
• Use commercial-grade coatings built to last 
• Offer colour matching and a wide range of finishes 
• Complete most wardrobe transformations within 2–3 days
