"Fresh Paint always does spectacular work on time and within budget. We have used them for multiple indoor home painting projects and they have a customer for life. Highly recommend!"
Bedroom Before.
We worked together with the real estate agent and homeowner to get the colors modernized without erasing the cozy feel of this well-appointed kitchen.
Bedroom after!
This is the pantry.  We kept the look bright and clean and ready for the next family to live in this lovely home!

"I needed to have a small paint repair job done. Andre came over and gave me a fair bid to paint 3 window sills for me. He was kind and professional and we scheduled a date. Honestly, I was happy to get a bid for such a small job. Ric came over and completed the job. He was also professional and thorough and did an excellent job. I appreciated the company agreeing to do my job even though it was probably more of a nuisance than was worth their time and efforts. Thank you!"

"Daniel was detail oriented and hard working. He also planned out the painting, to minimize disruption, as we continued to stay in the house while the work was going on. He spent extra hours and ended up finishing the project a couple of days prior to the original estimate."

"These guys are great! I have a few cabinet doors that needed to be painted to finish up a kitchen cabinet refacing project we started before we moved into our condo. We reached out to multiple people to get a quote for painting just a few cabinet doors. We were on a budget, and I didn't think we'd be able to get the work done until we could save up more, but these guys are so nice that they offered to work with us on our budget - it truly felt like a Christmas miracle (I may have teared up, it was so kind)! They did a great job painting the cabinets and turned them around in just a couple of days, even though I told them they could take their time. In the future, we hope to repaint all the walls in our home, and I will reach out to Color Cat Painting when the time comes!"

"This is the second/third time we've used Five Star Painting (first time was when they were Protect Paining and we lived in a different home - gave them 5 stars then). Terry and crew of four, did an outstanding job on our house exterior paint job in May 2017, which included the entire exterior/trim and large deck. They showed up each day on time, cleaned up, and were very respectful. Choosing the right color and type of paint is one thing but how it is put on is another - The Five Star team did fantastic work. As most people know and require... details matter and these guys demonstrated high quality in their attention to detail. Terry stayed connected and engaged in managing the project - coming to the job everyday to check in and make any appropriate adjustments. Five Star Painting made our 8 year old house look like a brand new home!!! Not to mention it is now properly protected from the elements. They did such a great job, before they closed out the job, we got a quote for our interior, which we executed on a few months later (Nov 2017). A+ all the way around on the interior work as well. Now the inside and outside look brand new. Can't say thanks enough. We definitely chose the right company and team for the job. We trusted them with our home and they knocked it out of the park. If it is not clear, we would highly recommend Five Star Paining to friends and family (already have made 3 referrals)."

"Muhamed and team did an excellent job painting my condo interior (walls, trim, ceiling, closets and doors)! They were competitively priced and very professional. They completed job on time, with prompt availability to return for touch ups. I recommend Pinehurst Painting Co, and would use them again."

"We were thrilled with NW Topnotch Painting & More's work on our recent house painting project. The quality of the finished product is outstanding – the paint job is flawless and looks even better than we imagined. They used top-notch materials and meticulous attention to detail throughout the entire process. But the exceptional service went beyond just the final product. NW Topnotch Painting & More offered excellent value, their pricing was fair and transparent. They were incredibly professional throughout the project, always courteous and respectful of our home. Communication was fantastic – they were responsive to any questions we had and kept us informed every step of the way. Additionally, they were punctual and always arrived on time, which made the entire process stress-free. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend NW Topnotch Painting & More to anyone looking for a top-notch house painting experience."

"Ari and his Coverall crew were exceptional. They did a great job replacing deteriorating shingles and rotted plywood. Excellent attention to detail, very good service, and at a fair price. even did a small unrelated job for me several weeks late at no next extra cost. He's also replaced roofs on several of my neighbours homes, and they are also very happy with his work. So i would definitely recommend."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Auburn, WA

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.
