"The garage turned out well. There were a few things done that was not perfect. They painted over some light bulbs and covers. The basement turned out great as well. There were several guys that came out and completed the project (including a ridiculous amount of nail pops) in just 3 days. This was the quaility of work I expected for the main 2 floors. The interior was another story. I was told when I received the bid that it would be a project that was squeezed in since they were very booked. Price was lower than the competitors so we hired. The company sent out 1 man to conduct the job. He was all over the place, missed spots and I was getting very stressed out. He fixed some nail pops but didn’t complete all of them. Additionally we would come home and see furniture and new carpet had not been covered up. Brush lines are still visable in spots along with paint runs. The home was empty and without furniture for 1 month. They were unable to complete the job while it was empty. The company had to come out after the pervious sub contractor was complete to try and fix and better the quality of the final product. Additionally, not everything was as it should be when final payment was made. There are stilll definite brush marks and color differences along all the corners and seems. Due to furniture being delivered that was too heavy to move, I will have to ask them to come out when we move again to see if they can finish some spots. The crew that came out to fix the job did well but there was so much space to cover they didn’t get everything. We are still noticing spots along the home that weren’t caught."

"Bill and Jim (Bennett Bros Painting Inc.) were great. Our garage walls needed to be completed. Their team came in, finished the mudding, and repaired the walls, getting them ready for painting. Jim and Bill then came in and painted the ceiling and walls. The process was easy, and the final product turned out fantastic. They exceeded all of our expectations. Additionally, we were in a time crunch, and they worked with us to get everything done within the required timeframe. Bill and Jim were professional, on time, and communicated effectively, making the process easy. We would hire Bennett Bros Painting again for future projects."

"Juan De Dios Painting contacted me almost immediately. He came out and reviewed the project and gave me a very reasonable estimate. The 2 man crew were great. Juan visited and stayed in contact throughout the project. They were very professional and polite. They immediately went to work and stayed focused on the project, finishing in 3 days. I am extremely happy with the outcome and will recommend him to everyone looking for a painter. Thank you very much."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Laurel, DE

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.
