"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."

"I hired Mj to paint my entire house that I was getting ready to place on the market and I have to say they did a fantastic job, the price was also affordable which is why I decided to go with them. I look forward to working with them in the near future for future projects if need be."

"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."

"I appreciated their quick response to my project. They fit my inside project into their busy schedule to make sure the painting was done before an upcoming date when I was having new carpet installed. They arrived on time and with masks which was very much appreciated. The quality was very good and I felt it was done at a reasonable price."

"Joe was very responsive and easy to communicate with and did great work. We had a few finishing jobs on basement windows and installing new stairs. He did everything well, provided options, was prompt and clean and it looks great. Would certainly hire him again."

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.
