"The A1 crew, led by Geraldo, did a stellar job on my personal residence. They demo’ed deteriorating siding in certain problematic locations followed by painting the whole house to achieve one, uniform color. No need to search further than A1!"

"Great! We were very pleased with all aspects of our experience with Painting Plus from the beginning. Derrick came out to give us the estimate, which he completed quickly and was very thorough. Scott was great in terms of staying in touch regarding our scheduling. And the two painting crews that we had were excellent! They arrived early (before on time!) and were professional and efficient. I would definitely hire Painting Plus again and refer them to friends and/or neighbors. They were referred to us by my brother-in-law who is a realtor. He's used them for his house as well as recommended him to his clients."

"Oscar was reliable, always there as promised. His work was steady, meticulous in detail, and outstanding as a finished product. We will hire him again! His cost was very reasonable in comparison to other painters. He was also very open to last minute changes or ideas. A pleasure to have him paint the interior of our home."

"Michael was upfront and honest throughout the project. He was prompt and consistent with communication. Michael made sure that I got what I wanted from the beginning to the end. Michael's crew paid attention to detail from start to finish; I didn't have to keep checking on them to ensure the job was being done properly. In fact, at times their crew leader checked in with me about details to ensure He was doing what I hoped for. Even their clean up was detailed, that is hard to find. The job looks great and is done with quality, the price was fair also. I couldn't 'ask for any better of a company or work. I recommend this company and it's employees."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Fort Collins, CO

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.
