"We used kind home painting for the first time and were very impressed . We used the company to scrape and retexture our popcorn ceiling and paint the walls . It was a great experience from the beginning to when Terah walked us through the project and helped pick colors . When the ceilings had some yellow coming through due to the age of our home , Terah and the crew made it a priority to come back and fix the issue . Terah was very knowledgeable and communicated through the whole process ! We definitely recommend Kind Home painting for interior or exterior painting jobs ."
After; What a transformation! Body color is Comfort Gray SW 6205. Trim is Alabaster SW 7008, and Accent is Rookwood Red SW 2802

"Great! We were very pleased with all aspects of our experience with Painting Plus from the beginning. Derrick came out to give us the estimate, which he completed quickly and was very thorough. Scott was great in terms of staying in touch regarding our scheduling. And the two painting crews that we had were excellent! They arrived early (before on time!) and were professional and efficient. I would definitely hire Painting Plus again and refer them to friends and/or neighbors. They were referred to us by my brother-in-law who is a realtor. He's used them for his house as well as recommended him to his clients."

"Kylan was pleasant, friendly, professional and did a great job painting. He also threw in painting a door for free, to help make the room look better. He was also very careful about masking to prevent any paint spilling anywhere. I won't lie, while Kylan's prices are reasonable and fair, you could possibly get 25% cheaper if you really shopped around. But it wouldn't be a huge difference, and there'd be high risk of getting low quality work. Better to pay very slightly more and get the peace of mind of a real pro on the job. Kylan's work is very thorough and detail oriented. Would happily hire again."

"The crew that came to do my work was very friendly and I felt very comfortable with them in my home... I had some painting done, and also some new shelving put into my bathroom and a couple of fixes around the house just after I bought my home... I love all of my paint and upgrades, and I would definitely use this service in the future as well. It's really fine work!"

"Lee is amazing! Communication is on top, and keeps his word. Pricing is affordable and quality of work is fantastic. Lee works quick and efficient! He supplied the paint, equipment, everything for this project. Made it super easy on my behalf! I would absolutely use him again! A before and after picture. The garage wall was blue when I bought the house and I asked for black. Knowing black can be seen on anything, the line work is perfect! I’m a perfectionist and am very happy with this work. He also paint matched the front door to the garage wall! When he was done, he cleaned up after himself, would have never known he was here, no messes at all!"
After taping off areas for over spray protection, the siding was stained with a spray rig for efficiency and good seal coverage. The deck will match at a later date.
This is the finished 2 coat stain sealer. Day 2 after 24hr dry . Beautiful warm colors for even late fall after the leaves will have dropped.
Siding first coat of stain and some trim vent repair.

"Rene did an awesome job on our project. We had our popcorn ceilings removed and the entire interior painted. Although the project was extremely messy, Rene made sure we were satisfied at every stage of the project. We would hire Rene to do work in the future."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Boulder, CO

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.
