"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 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."

"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.
