"Eric and Gabriel were great partners in the work, from choosing colors and brands of paint to completing the work around our schedule. We’ll call them first when we need painting again."

We worked together with the real estate agent and homeowner to get the colors modernized without erasing the cozy feel of this well-appointed kitchen.

"I hired Potts to do some repainting for exterior doors that were looking worn out, including two that the builders had painted with interior paint and that were in terrible condition. Rob, the owner, kept right on schedule. He and his crew were punctual and professional, and they got the job done with great communication. I will keep them in mind for future projects!"

"Daniel did really beautiful work. He fixed a hole in my interior dry wall- you literally can’t find where it used to be, the repair is so seamless! He did it in just 1 day too! He was very communicative, he clearly cares about his customers and the work, 100% will be using him again in the future for paint or drywall."

"We were so impressed with everyone who worked on our home interior painting. Mike was very professional and was always available if we had questions. The crew also were very professional, courteous and helpful. They did an amazing job painting with beautiful results! We had absolutely no complaints at all. We will wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone who wants painting done. As soon as spring arrives we plan on asking them to repaint the exterior of our house next. I am sure we will be just as pleased."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Federal Way, WA

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.
