"Cruz Home Painting crew was professional, courteous, friendly and proficient at their craft. Painting was outstanding, cleaned up every nights, stayed until complete. Punctual, asked us to inspect the finished job before asking for payment. Would definitely rehire or recommend to anyone. Could not have wished for a better trades person to take on this project."

"Paz Painting is simply the best. They were recommended by our realtor who has very high standards. We had 4 different projects with different timelines and some delays that could not be helped. Paz was flexible, communicative, very fair pricing, excellent quality of service. We'll have them working on projects in our new home as soon as we can. I wouldn't go with anyone else. I also like support smaller, locally owned businesses."

"Over the course of the last year Grady Jones Paint has worked for me on (3) different occasions to repaint our home interior. The scope of work included scraping the popcorn ceilings, flattening them and then repainting them; repainting all of the walls; painting our cabinetry; and, finally, staining the exposed woodwork on our deck. Clee was very responsive and visited the project every time his workers were on site. Tim and Eddie made up the crew who did the work. They were amicable, professional, courteous and did a GREAT job. I plan to use Grady Jones Paint for any future work and recommend them to anyone in need of a paint contractor."

"John did a great job staining my fence. He power washed and worked around weather to get a day when it was warm enough and fence was completely dry. He watched how the wood absorbed the stain and sprayed a second coat when needed. Made my 6 year old fence look like new again. He was careful not to overspray on house and masked all hardware. Will definitely hire again on future projects."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Apex, NC

You'll need about two gallons of paint to fully cover your kitchen cabinets with two coats. Since each gallon covers around 350 square feet, it's a good idea to measure your cabinets or use a paint calculator to determine exactly how much you'll need. Starting with one or two coats of primer and then applying two to three layers of paint will give you a flawless, durable finish. Using high-quality paint can reduce the number of coats needed and provide a long-lasting finish.

The best type of paint for your kitchen cabinets is latex paint because it applies evenly and creates a durable finish. If you're painting wood surfaces and need extra adhesion, acrylic paint is a great alternative. We don't recommend oil-based paint for residential use due to its VOC emissions. For finishes, go with eggshell, semi-gloss, gloss, or satin, as matte finishes aren't as durable or as easy to clean.

The best method for painting kitchen cabinets is spray painting because it gives you a smooth, even finish without brush strokes. While brushes and rollers can work, they often leave marks and require more effort. If you're aiming for a professional look, spray painting is your best bet to enhance the beauty and durability of your cabinets.
