Customers say: True professional

"Better than expected. the attention to detail was excellent. They were on time, on budget and did a great clean up afterwards. Their price fell within the norm based on everything I've read. I am planning to bring them back to redo the flooring in the 2 rooms they painted and to do the master bedroom. They have become my new go to guys for projects. It also helps that they a friendly and helpful."

"I originally scheduled the appointment with home advisor, and no one showed up to the appointment or called. When I left a message, Abraham responded and told me that he was not notified of the appointment. He came out later that day scoped the project and gave me a price. This was for cracks in the drywall to be repaired. He asked if I was going to paint it, and I said yes that I could paint it. When he and his helper came out, they did the work quickly, but did not wear masks, did not even put down a drop cloth downstairs, got mud all over my backpack and ceiling fan. When he was leaving, he said that I would need to sand all the mud myself before painting, which was the first I had heard of, or give him an extra $50 and he would do it. I decided to just deal with it myself from there on out. Certainly not the worst, but he did not overly impress me either. I would rate the work as Average."

"I could not recommend Holy City Painting and Drywall high enough. Shawn was extremely personable and professional and the quality of his work was outstanding. I would recommend him for any painting or drywall needs that you may have."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Charleston, SC

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.
