"Pedro is an absolute professional. He quickly assessed the work to be done and provided an estimate. He arrived at my home exactly when he said he would. He and his assistant were incredibly efficient. He cleaned up when the job was finished, and when he departed it was like he was never here, except for the perfect paint job. I am looking forward to working with Pedro on future painting projects."

"These 2 are the best around! They arrive on time, are polite, clean the area each day, and ask any questions. There is not a brush or roller mark anywhere, including where they blended in old and new. By far the most skillful and professional around!"

"This was excellent service from start to finish! They promply arrived each day and always provided friendly and professional service. The exterior of my house was looking so well I asked if they could also paint my storage building which they agreed to without any hesitation. Even the communication prior to starting on my project was always consistent and very professional. By far one of the best services I have received and the only company I will be calling for any future projects."

"I have used Walter’s services for many years. As I’ve aged and developed breathing issues the are many small chores I can no longer do. Walter’s company has grown into a full blown Home Improvement company. Yet when I called with a couple of small repair projects Walter did not hesitate to squeeze me into his busy schedule. One project was new fireplace doors. Due to the odd shape of my opening the doors didn’t fit as intended. Walter and his buddy Ron went to Home Depot and bought square tubing and built a frame around the inside of the doors. Most companies would have said “Sorry, it won’t fit” and left. Walter took a bad situation and made it right. I am very grateful!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Elizabeth City, 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.
