"Wes and the crew at Straight Edge Painting Pros were outstanding. Wes quickly returned my calls, gave a very reasonable quote, and the crew did an outstanding job repairing damaged wood and staining the house. In addition we had new wood garage doors installed after the house was stained and the Straight Edge team came back right after installation to stain these doors as part of the original estimate. We are very satisfied and would strongly recommend Straight Edge Painting Pros to anyone looking for house painters."

"Kenia and crew did an amazing job for a beyond fair price on my accent walls. They showed up on time, took care with the home as they setup to paint, and followed through on all commitments. This excellent experience led to my asking Kenia to estimate the price of painting the whole house from ceiling to baseboards including patch repair - the price was right and work commenced within the week. Once again the crew came in and did a top notch job in an efficient manner - even patching a ceiling crack we didn't know was there until the 1st coat of paint went on at no extra charge. They installed wainscot trim, painted some pieces of furniture that needed to be refreshed. Totally amazing work and very professional experience. They've now been hired to re-paint my kitchen cabinets to complete my house overhaul. I feel very fortunate to have found Kenia/Carolina Painting & Remodeling LLC through Angi and have already referred friends that have contracted the team to have work completed that are also fully satisfied with the quality of work. You'd be very lucky indeed to have this wonderful team take care of your painting and general remodeling needs :) ."

"Hakan Anderson had two painters at the house who quickly set about installing plastic on the furniture. They then applied stain blocker to the water stains on the ceilings from a leaking roof that was replaced. This was an insurance job. Then they cut in the perimeter of the ceiling with a brush and then rolled 2 coats of paint on each ceiling. After they were done, it was all about cleaning up and a walk through. I had moved all the furniture to the center of the rooms prior to their arrival. Hakan said it wasn't necessary but I felt better about doing it myself."

"Domestic Aesthetics did an amazing job pressure washing my home. This is truly one of the best companies you could choose. They offer free quotes to assess the work needed, and their pricing is very reasonable—they even work with you on matching prices. They arrived early in the morning, got straight to work, and by the time I returned home, my property looked completely transformed—like it had a fresh coat of paint. The windows were crystal clear, and the walls and roof looked incredible. For the quality of work and the price, I couldn’t be more satisfied. They are fast, cost-efficient, and very professional. I would 100% highly recommend them to anyone looking for pressure washing services. "

"I hired Mr. Handyman for multiple small projects ie, caulking, installing a chair rail, installing shelving in 2 closets, etc. I can't say enough good things about this service and the person they sent. The gentleman was named Frank. Everything was done correctly and efficiently-he's a true professional. The fact that he was very personable is just the icing on the cake-because it could be awkward when a stranger spends 5+hours in your house but he was easy to chat with while he worked. I have one or two more larger "projects" and I will definitely call them again And request Frank"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Cornelius, NC

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.
