"I prefer to get referrals by word of mouth, but painters I have previously used were either too busy or not interested in my small project. DH Painting responded to my quote request within a day and the entire process went smoothly. I am very happy with the results and would highly recommend them."

"Our house was in dire need of exterior painting. After researching Kevin Turner Painting and talking to Kevin personally, I knew he was the man for the job. Ours is a fairly large house and the job took seven days for Kevin and his three assistants. They removed all the gutters (which were to be replaced later by another company), removed all the storm windows, power washed the entire house, and scraped off all the peeling paint. Before painting, Kevin made a number of wood rot repairs, caulked where needed, repaired the front porch awning, reglazed a number of widows -- and even removed an unsightly old tv antenna from the highest part of the second story, During the painting, Kevin made a couple of suggestions which we agreed to that really improved our house's appearance, such has adding some shutters rather than trimming the doors and windows with an accent color. We were really impressed with the efficiency and professionalism of Kevin and his crew. We are extremely pleased with their work. And our house has never looked so good! We whole-heartedly recommend Kevin Turner Painting!"

"A diamond in the rough of painters/handymen. Tom is at least one of, if not the most, solid, true-to-their word people that I have had the privilege to meet. He truly cares about getting the job completed to your satisfaction. I chose Tom to paint the entire interior of the townhouse I recently bought-cabinets, doors, and knock-down vaulted ceilings included. It needed a lot of work. Tom was professional, trustworthy, HONEST, reasonably-priced, and PATIENT. I was wishy-washy on the color of paint I wanted and he was kind enough to be prepared to change the paint color halfway through the job when I thought it wasn't the color I wanted. He did so with a demeanor that was not frustrated or condescending, but helpful and insightful. Thankfully the color I originally chose ended up being perfect, but his willingness to try another color without getting frustrated with me was so kind and calm- great descriptions of his persona. The paint job he did was top notch and positively upgraded the whole look of the house. He is a perfectionist and has made certain that I'm happy with the results all throughout this project. He is also not just a painter. He's done so much more for me during this remodel. I didn't realize he was a REMARKABLE HANDYMAN. He raised my master bathroom vanity by about 6 inches to a more standard/modern height; hooked up new chandeliers/light fixtures/ceiling fans; installed new bathroom and kitchen sink faucets; helped to get rid of a urine smell in the floor; installed shoe around my floor after LVT was laid and that contractor was so unreliable that he couldn't finish the job in a timely manner; worked his schedule around unreliable contractors that required him to come back later to complete the painting touch ups required; dealt with my indecisiveness, plus is willing to return AGAIN after my carpet install to do paint touch ups. So he really is an amazing handyman, even though his specialty is painting. I could go on and on. I'll say it again, Tom is one of the most solid, true-to-word people that I have had the privilege to meet. He truly cares about getting the job completed to your satisfaction."

"They were recommended to us. Our 1/2-bath remodel was done in 2022. Watch what you pay. While their work was great, our 1-week project turned into 3 weeks plus without discussing it with us. He handed us a bill for $2,400.00 more than he bid, which we agreed to. His excuse was that it took longer to do some things than he expected. Not our problem. He kept saying no big deal and how long he had been doing this, so he should have known how long it would take to do things. We clearly outlined in writing what needed to be done. We discussed everything. We pointed out the termite damage, so he knew about that. He knew he'd have to build out the walls to put in a shelf. He threw away a wax ring for the toilet, then spent half a day driving around trying to find one that worked. His son would not show sometimes, so he said it took him longer because he needed his son help. Several days he did not show because he worked on another job. There were no hidden surprises on our end. We did not ask for additional things to be done. We stuck to our list. We bought the tile, shower base, shower door, shower head [and raised it up], new vent/light, and toilet. All they had to do was tear out the old, install the new in a half bath, and get any supplies he needed to do the job. His bid was $6,400.00, but we ended up paying $9,561.70 [$921.70 was tools and materials]. He charged us for an extra 14 hours at $160.00 per hour. His last day, he walked in and handed me a bill with the additional amount. What if we did not have that extra money? Why did he not tell us ahead of time that it was going to cost more? He just acted like it was no big deal; it was more than he bid, and we should have no problem paying the additional amount, which again, we were not made aware of and did not agree on. Of course I paid it, then kicked myself later. We should have paid what he bid, and if he wanted the rest, told him to take us to court."

"He came to my house on time, did exactly what he said he would do. You could not feel or see any difference on the repairs, the paint matched beautifully. His price was less than half of the other quotes, I will hire him for any other projects that I have in the future."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Kansas City, KS

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.
