"Steve Schultze did a great job. He explained what he would do, and then over 3 separate, short trips, he did exactly what he had said he would. The ceiling looks like new, and the crack has been fixed very well. He was personable, friendly and on time."

"The entire team from Classic Finishes are respectful, competent, friendly, punctual and extremely skilled at which each of them does. From Evan, the owner, who negotiated with me an excellent rate after I obtained quotes from a total of five companies, to Bob who provided great consultation on the best way to complete the project, to Peter whose carpentry skills are second to none, and to Luis whose painting and popcorn ceiling removal skills are undeniably amazing. I am very pleased and lucky I hired Classic Finishes and I highly recommend!"

"Just terrific to work with. Professional, on-time, and priced right. Ivan took care of reviewing the 2 small projects (that seemed overwhelming to me!), scheduling the work and came back for final inspection, after his crew finished up. I am newly widowed and am much at ease now, knowing my storage shed is like new and the mailboxes at the foot of the driveway are solidly in place and won't fall over. Will confidently recommend this company to anyone."

"Pat recently painted cabinets/doors/shelves that we then had installed on both sides of our fireplace. He was great to work with! He communicated very well, everything was finished in the timeframe we discussed and his pricing was very reasonable. His work is fantastic! I will definitely use Pat again for future painting projects."

"Absolutely excellent! Not the lowest bid (middle) but the most knowledgeable in how to deal with mildew. Aaron was excellent in all communications and all of the painters were very professional and detailed in their work. The garage looks great. For the next painting job they are my choice."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Cottage Grove, MN

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.
