"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!"

Customers say: Quick response

"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."

"In a word - OUTSTANDING! Christopher Wilson and his entire crew did a terrific job painting the exterior of our home and staining our decks. We also had a significant amount of wood rot that need to be repaired. The carpentry and craftsmanship was top-notch as they mitigated the wood rot. The entire crew worked hard, were responsive and kept a clean job site. I would hire Christopher Wilson and his company again without reservation."

"Melinda did a fantastic job! She painted our kitchen, living room, entryway, hallway and bedroom. Additionally she painted our VERY high ceilings in the kitchen, living room and entryway. It was not an easy task, but Melinda got the job done on time and it looks great! Very professional and prompt, and great to work with. Would definitely hire this company again."

"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."

"I had my living room, dinning room, and kitchen painted. They did a terrific job, and I'm very happy with how it looks. They also installed a washer and dryer in my upstairs bathroom, which I love. I will definitely use them again for other projects. They were extremely neat and professional. Highly recommend!"

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

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.
