"Leo and his crew are great. I hire them EVERY time I need painting or power washing. He is prompt, does great work and works hard to please. Hiring work out for house needs can be frustrating, but I’m never frustrated with JJ&K. Highly recommend"

"I asked Bob to give me a quote to repair a back porch door and sunscreen that has fallen off. I also asked him to help with painting my mail box. Bob was very prompt to come by. He gave his estimates and promised to come the next day morning to complete the project. He was on time and did a great job and on budget. I will recommend him again and I am certainly keeping his number in case I need him in future. Great guy to work with and great service. Thank you!"

"Chris and Richard were the absolute right choice for our projects! Always courteous, respectful, and professional. We had them repair/replace/paint exterior trim and install a patio door system. Their attention to detail and commitment to get every aspect of the job just right is inspiring and placed the utmost confidence in me as the homeowner. I highly recommend them for any of your future home improvement jobs!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Johnnie McCollum is knowledgeable about all kinds of projects that is the reason i chose him over other contractors. He is a one stop shop for almost any project such as electrical, plumbing etc. Even though i hired him for painting, he did other projects as well. I have other projects for him when i get ready. I will definitely hire him again."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Athens, GA

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.
