repainter

Coats walls again

A repainter is someone who paints something again, whether to refresh a faded surface, change a color, or restore an object to better condition.

The term applies to professionals who specialize in repainting cars, furniture, or buildings, as well as to anyone undertaking such a task.

We hired a repainter to redo the kitchen cabinets.
