"Suzy was fantastic. Responded in a timely manner and perfectly on task. She reached out when she had a cancellation in her schedule and finished my project two days earlier than scheduled. It was a small project but important to me and she respected that. I absolutely recommend Angel's Painting!"

"I have had two projects that I chose Vicente Gonzales, owner of J.B. Paint & Drywall Corp. The first was a roof leak that created some serious rework to our staircase. He did a super job. The second job was an interior painting project. We had rented the home for 12 years and it was clearly in need of repairs of the walls. The house now look brand new. Vicente is easy to work with, he and his team are craftsmen at what they do. They work hard, get the job done and offer very reasonable pricing. I will certainly continue to utilize J. B. Paint & Drywall for all of our painting and drywall needs."

"We can't say enough good things about our experience with Progressive Painting. Dennis Phillips is a true professional who delivered more than expected. The quality of the work was excellent and the price was very reasonable. Dennis always arrived early and kept us fully informed about the progress of the job. His staff were courteous and worked through some pretty tough heat conditions to keep our project moving. It was apparent from our first conversation that quality and customer satisfaction were really important to Dennis. If you decide to work with him, you won't be disappointed!"

"My wife & I have been very impressed with Brian’s work and how he goes about doing business. Brian and his co-workers are polite, hard working and clean. The quality of work for the price is refreshing and really appreciated. Our first quote was 3 times the cost we paid with TN Paint & Stain. We’ve had Brian & crew back to the house for continued paint projects and find them to be very trustworthy."

"Milton is a very professional business owner who does what he says he will do. He showed on time for the estimate, provided the estimate within 24 hours, as stated he would do and communicated by email as to when he will start the job. His talents with the paint brush is second to none. We are very pleased with the results and would recommend him to all who needs interior or exterior paint work."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Columbia, TN

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.
