"I chose Precise Painting and Restoration out of four other painters I had over because Juan ensured me he could replace the few rotten siding pieces I had on my house. That was valuable to me because I didn't have to find a separate contractor to do the work. During the repair and painting project, Juan would let me know what he was going to work on and gave me updates during the day. Juan and his whole crew were very professional and hard working. My house looks absolutely beautiful!"

"We have done several painting jobs with Jorge and would hire him again in the future! Very detailed, trustworthy and knowledgeable about finishes and products to use for your projects. Also, very responsive to calls and text messages and shows up ready every time we schedule work. All the painting work that Jorge has done for us, interior and exterior, looks fantastic."

"Derek was prompt at coming out to give us an estimate. I was impressed when he pointed out the smoke on the ceiling in the family room and stressed they will prime those areas before painting. He was the only painter who estimated the job to point out that situation. He and his crew were prompt, friendly and very careful to protect our items. Everything was covered in plastic to prevent paint from getting on items or carpet. Also it stopped sanding dust from spreading throughout the house. We are very pleased with Derek and his crew .. they did an outstanding job. I would recommend them highly."

"Tom was in communication about wanting to paint in ideal conditions when the humidity was down, as the project was painting the interior of my garage. Once they started they took their time to make sure I was satisfied and even put more coats on in the high traffic areas to be sure the paint lasts longer. They did a wonderful job and I would highly recommend for paint projects."

"Steadfast did a great job of painting two rooms but also filling a large hole in the ceiling and correcting/eliminating the moisture issue in the bathroom ceiling by using the right product. I would definitely recommend Steadfast."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Downers Grove, IL

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.
