"Very satisfied with Wow. Had a major project of painting our old house, including carpentry for a great deal of wood rot, and full replacement of our shutters. We worked with Craig Merrils on securing a quote and scheduling the work. He was wonderful to work with, came in fairly priced, and was super responsive to all our needs. Josue supervised the work onsite. The staff was highly skilled and hard working. They are committed to quality and definitely the best out there in terms of detailed, lasting work. They also use high-grade, low-toxin paint, which was important to us. After the job was complete, Craig and Josue went carefully over the work with us, and addressed any and all touch ups that were needed. They address any questions or issues you have until you are 100% satisfied. Highly recommend."

"I found Jose to be extremely professional, curteous, and always on time. He provided a detailed estimate within 24 hours of coming to my house to discuss the project and review what I needed done. I thought he provided a fair estimate based on the amount of preparation required to get my house ready to paint. It required scraping of old paint, sanding, priming, and apply 2 coats of paint and ended up taking 3-4 days total. Jose and his team showed up on time each day and worked diligently throughout the day, and would consult me periodically throughout the project to set expectations and to provide a status. The end result looked wonderful. My house went from looking shabby with peeling paint and rotting wood in places, to new and fresh. Looking forward to working with C&Painting again on future projects."

"We needed to get my house painted for sale. I entertained numerous bids. Jose was on the order of half of what the others were charging, but came strongly recommended by a relative. Further, he was very familiar with prepping a house for sale and had numerous suggestions for various difficulties we faced. Jose was prompt and courteous at each of our meetings. He has promptly responded to emails and texts and phone calls even over the holidays. He was flexible when I needed to move his start date. After setting a price for the work to be done, I discovered additional prep work that needed to be done before starting paint. He was able to complete that work for the original cost. His painters arrived en masse to start wall prep first thing on day 1 and made extensive progress each day. Even as work was progressing, Jose was stopping by frequently to review the painter's work. He discovered that certain areas that were not to be painted actually showed some errant brush strokes from prior paint jobs that were now painfully obvious. He was able to quickly price and then complete the additional work at an affordable rate and still complete all the work on time. Jose was able to quickly understand and estimate the original job and complete all the work, including the additional areas for less than 2/3 of any of the other bidders on the project. After we finished our walk through, he offered to stay in touch if we had any questions or if we discovered any oversights. While I don't anticipate any, I am glad that he has been honest, frank and straightforward throughout the whole process and has produced top notch work. I would hire him again for any additional work we would need to have done, and I heartily recommend him to anyone else with paint work to do."

"I hired Gibbs Painting to make some drywall repairs following a kitchen remodel and had them paint the ceiling in two different rooms. My interaction with them was very professional. From the estimate to the completion of the work, everything went very well. They completed the work In the amount of time they stated, left the house in excellent condition, and the on-site team was very easy to work with. I would hire them again to do work inside my house and would recommend them to others."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Kensington, MD

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.
