"Work was performed exactly as discussed and agreed to (match existing paint colors) at estimated cost. Start was delayed at our request due to high heat and humidity, with no complaints. Work was further delayed through no fault of Arch Painting due to continuous wet weather. Once a good weather window finally occurred, the work was performed quickly with no impact on us. We were totally satisfied with the quality of the work and the finished product."

Customers say: Quick response

"I have hired Chilel Painting before, and they are the best painters I have ever used. They are professional, quick, and fair. They removed difficult wallpaper and border within an hour. They fully prep each area before painting, so the finished product is a work of art! I couldn't be happier with their work. They are quiet, clean up after themselves, and do a super job. My contractor was so impressed with them; he hired them to paint his house. I HIGHLY recommend them for any project. - DMR"

"Project also included painting trim work, fireplace, doors, entire bathroom and staircase spindles ( not included in the estimate.) Jerry and the crew he lead were professional, respectful, courteous and accommodating to special requests and concerns all while finishing on time and not exceeding estimate. Jerry's communications with me and his team was exceptional throughout this project that not only resulted in my overall satisfaction, but also affected the quality of work that was performed. I am planning future home projects with Jerry and his crew. Cindy C. Westford, MA"

"Torin and his team did a wonderful job upgrading our original 1980s kitchen. He was flexible with its construction ‘quirks’ and helped me find materials within my budget. Kitchen remodel included cabinets countertops & lighting. Torin is detailed and thorough. He shows up on time, is clean and personable. Throughout the project, he took on smaller fixes including replacing my bathroom faucet, fixing the drafty front door & hiding the TV cable wires behind the wall. Overall very satisfied with his work."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Exeter, NH

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.
