"Our faith in painting contractors was completely restored, as Javier Miranda and his family were extremely skilled in their craft. Their mastery was so obvious on day one that we gave them an additional high-risk ask—one we originally omitted because without a true expert, it could have led to serious injury or costly damage. The Mirandas accepted without hesitation and handled it with such incredible precision that drivers were literally pulling over to watch them work. Beyond their technical skills, they were prompt, efficient, honest, and clear in their communication (we received a daily work plan and recap). Their job site management was impeccable, their rates were reasonable, and frankly, they are just lovely and very humble human beings. The Mirandas listened to us and listened to the home (an 1890s Victorian gem). When they completed the project, it was nothing less than outstanding!"

Customers say: Quality work

"This was a difficult, 5-day job that involved removing a few layers of old wallpaper, patching a water-damaged textured ceiling, and painting our kitchen, family room, foyer, stairwell and upper hallway. Michael and his crew were punctual, very personable and considerate. They were also total perfectionists, and did an amazing job! Will definitely hire them again in the future."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Elkhart, IN

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.
