"HPO did a great job painting/staining the Cedar siding of our home. The work was done ahead of schedule, they cleaned up after themselves, and was reasonable in their pricing! The owner was very knowledgeable and honest."

"Outstanding job by Anthony and his team. Our home actually has aluminum siding and when it came time for a fresh look, we were debating replacing the siding (very expensive) or having it freshly re-painted. We couldn't be happier going with Anthony's team for having it re-painted and helping with any exterior repairs needed. We are in the process of hiring Anthony's team again for some other projects. We HIGHLY recommend hiring Preemo Painting & Repairs. Thanks!"

"Review of Excellent Bathroom Renovation Services We recently had our bathroom renovated by a fantastic company, and I couldnâ t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism and dedication were evident. The team was incredibly hardworking, consistently putting in long hours, often working 8-10 hours a day to ensure everything was perfect. Their commitment to the job was impressive, and they maintained this high level of effort throughout the entire project. Jasmine, who managed our project, was always available to answer any questions or address concerns. Her responsiveness was a huge relief and ensured that we were always in the loop about the progress. Financially, they were very accommodating. They worked with us to find a payment plan that we could afford, which was immensely helpful and took a lot of stress out of the process. One of the standout aspects of their service was their willingness to go the extra mile. They handled several unforeseen issues that cropped up during the renovation without any hassle, ensuring that everything was completed to the highest standard. The end result was a beautifully renovated bathroom that exceeded our expectations. The project was completed right on schedule, just as they had promised. The entire experience was smooth and headache-free, making it a pleasure to work with them. I would not hesitate to work with this company again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality renovation work. Their dedication, flexibility, and excellent customer service truly set them apart."

"Angel showed up right on time. He painted 2 coats of paint in a bedroom for me. He did an excellent job and just took him apx 3 hours. That included running blowers to dry the first coat. He was very friendly and I would highly recommend him."

"Owner, Marty, was wonderful to work with and so was his painter, Corey. Communication was a breeze and every thing was done professionally. Both owner, Marty, and Corey, the painter, were cordial, responsive, and professional. It was a pleasure doing business with Marty. They were also cooperative since I requested the work be done in a certain way and they agreed. I wouldn't hesitate to call them again if I need more painting done. This time, the job was on the small side - painting large kitchen island cabinets - but next time, it would likely be a much bigger job. I highly recommend using this company."

"Joel, Jesus, and his brothers are fantastic! This is the second remodeling project that they did, and it was excellent. They hit all the contractor marks (which is rare): 1) price was excellent and unbeatable; (2) price did not go up in spite of add-ons (e.g., painted extra door, extra trim, fixed door mounting, spot plaster/painting in additional rooms, etc.); (3) they showed up when they said they would; (4) they are very polite and courteous; (5) they are professionals at its core; (6) their quality was spotless; and (7) they left the house very clean. Makes me almost regain my faith and trust in contractors. Almost. :) "

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Carpentersville, 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.
