"Initially, I hired them to power wash and paint a small section of a rather large deck. However, when I saw how professional they were, and how well it was turning out, I added to my scope of work and had them do two decks and repair outside structures. It took them three days to complete the work, but no shortcuts were taken. They moved furniture deck furniture and replaced it. I am beyond pleased"

"We found Las Melas on The Nextdoor App and they were highly recommended. I now see why. I reached out to them with what was meant to be a small kitchen ceiling paint job. They got back to us quickly and agreed to come out for a quote. After discussing the project we agreed on expanding the project to painting the entire first floor of our house. They gave us a fair price and we agreed to start in 2 weeks. Due to bad weather, they were able to start our house project even earlier than expected. They finished painting in 3 days! They do not mess around. We plan to use Las Melas for future projects as well. If you go with Las Melas you will not regret it."

"Very professional in all aspects and would highly recommend hiring Excellence Painting for any type of paint job. They are prompt and responsive. They listen to how you would like the paint job complete and provide you with an accurate quote. After they are completed with the project they do a walk-thru to ensure you are pleased with the work. They are never in a rush to finish the job. They take their time to ensure the work is profession and meets the customerâ s expectation. We hired them for multiple small-projects around the house and would hire them in a heartbeat."

"Derek and crew are a step above most contractors. They do a great job, offer it at a reasonable price, start on time and listen to you throughout the process. I didnt know these were even a possible with my previous contractor experiences. Derek is a hard working and eager to make a name for his business. He will have our business moving forward as he painted, updated the bathroom and changed some fixtures. Thanks, the project looks great!"

"MVPS Construction Inc. was recommended to us as a painter during our kitchen and floor remodel. Delfino and his team did an exceptional job for us. They papered the entire floor, plastic sheeting, taping all for protection. Meticulous. Then started patching all areas that needed to be repaired. Painting, etc. took 3 days to do. The living room, dining room, hallway, bathroom, utility room doors, all trim and baseboards and ceiling. And they prepared, primed and painted the front bay window from the original stained wood. Very thorough and would not accept payment until we approved the work. They cleaned up each day to ensure we still had access to necessary rooms. Very respectful. Listened to our requests and answered all our questions. Just a great team! I've had them back twice-once with a crack that appeared under the bay window from the severe cold snap and just recently when I had damaged a couple of areas on the walls from using those adhesive strips. We highly recommend MVPS!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Itasca, 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.
