"We hired HPO to paint the entire house, all doors, windows and trim. Eric’s team was professional and thorough for the month long project and took the time with us to get the job done right. Drywall repairs were made and partial walls installed - great quality. Will rehire for our next project."

"Carlos and his crew paid tremendous attention to detail, meticulously preparing the house for paint and professionally working to complete the project in a thorough and timely way. Carlos provided oversight at every step and worked hard to make sure our communication was good as we had very specific ideas about how our 4-color scheme was carried out. As the project approached completion, Carlos made several circuits of the house with me to make certain that every last detail was addressed. I would definitely retain Carlos again and encourage others to engage him when planning future projects."

"Angel did a great job on refinishing my interior wood window frames on two large corner windows. On day one he came and stripped and put down the new stain. Let this dry out over the weekend and came back on Monday to apply the water based varnish. No bad fumes and a wonderful touch up job with the paint around the wood. I am very pleased with his work and will definitely contact him in the springtime for more work."

"Initially, I hired them to power wash and paint a small section of a rather large deck. However, when I saw how professional they were, and how well it was turning out, I added to my scope of work and had them do two decks and repair outside structures. It took them three days to complete the work, but no shortcuts were taken. They moved furniture deck furniture and replaced it. I am beyond pleased"

"We were very pleased with Steadfast. Anthony and his team were super responsive, patient with our multitude of questions, attentive to detail and did a great job. Our project involved painting brick and wood, adding wood trim around several windows, and patching and repairing surfaces in other spots. They also provided consultation on our color selection. They didn't miss a beat and made sure the job was done to our satisfaction before wrapping up. I'd highly recommend them!"

"Absolutely wonderful! Anthony and his workers arrived on time and left the premises clean with everything picked up each day. They repaired loose siding and patched holes along with nailing where needed. They were delightful to work with and we highly recommend them to anyone needing painting/staining."

"We contracted H&MH to paint, finish some drywall, and put flooring down in our basement on a tight budget. The unfinished ceiling was painted too, which was not an easy task. All the work turned out great and way better than expected. Andy suggested flooring that was a perfect choice. We really love how it turned out. All of the crew were polite, professional, and hard working. Everything was done on time and under budget. We’ve hired this company for several projects and we’ve never been disappointed. We highly recommend them!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Barrington, IL

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.
