Super Service Award winning company 15 years in a row!! Touchstone is a painting and remodeling company for the home owner who really cares about his/her home and expects the job to be done right and done well the first time. We believe the difference between a mediocre job and a great job is found in the details, and therefore we are picky in our work, taking pride in what we do. All our hired help are highly skilled and very experienced only; no amateurs here. Our clients even say that we’re fun to have around! We are straight forward, honest, and easy to work with. Our motto: "We love our work. You will, too."

"I've used this company many times, not only for painting, but for handyman jobs. Jonathan and his crew have proven to be efficient, knowledgeable, and just good people! I have referred him to several neighbors, who have been very pleased with their work. Most recently, I decided to change a small room into my craft room and Jonathan was able to paint the room in a short time. I have never been disappointed with the work of Touchstone!"

"I've been trying to get a "small" project done in my house for years. I reached out to several other companies who either didn't respond or came for a job walk and pretty much told me they couldn't do the work. JM painting and remodeling didn't. They gave me a reasonable price and were incredibly professional while they worked. The work they did was so great you'd have no idea that it wasn't a part of the original home design. I will definitely hire them again."

"I've had the pleasure of working with Radek/RF Improvements for over 10+ years. He's taken projects where our schedules matched up and unfortunately due to timing there were two major projects he wasn't able to take as our schedules didn't match up and I needed it done sooner and I had to go with someone else. Lesson here being try to adjust to his schedule as he'll do it better than the other guy. Projects he took on 10+ years ago are still solid and have not needed any follow up. Projects where I went with the someone else, I've had to call him to come fix. Radek/RF Improvements prices are reasonable and it shows in his detail and explanation of work. I recommend Radek/RF Improvements whenever I can as he's a solid referral to friends and family."

"Painters gave a good price & were very nice until they were paid. When they finished, they said they would be happy to come back the next weekend to do touch ups or anything that needed to be re done. They ghosted us, stopped returning our messages and did not come back to finish the job or do touch ups. I also found paint on my couch and a crack in the ceiling where they painted. We sent the pictures to the contractor and they did not respond. They took short cuts and painted around several can less lights, resulting in paint on the brand new lights we just had installed. We are very disappointed in the "end product." We would not recommend them to anyone who takes pride in their homes due to lack of follow through. We have the photos to support the lack of quality and craftsmanship & the conversations where the painter decided to stop replying. They left no paint for us to be able to do our own touch ups. I am unsure this company is licensed and insured. "

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Grayslake, IL

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.
