They did A LOT of prep work, were detail-oriented, professional, courteous and cleaned up every day... I highly recommend Ocegueda and would use them again in a heartbeat.

"The pro made some repairs on my back porch wall. I was very pleased with a job. I even paid them before the job was ended. I would recommend this pro to all my friends. I would hire this person again for work in the future."

"Simon and his guys did a great job painting the entire interior of my home in Schererville. I had a lot of drywall work and patching as well. They painted my ceilings, walls, trim, doors, and cabinets. I am looking to get more painting done in the future and will use Legacy painting again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Portage, IN

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.
