"Joe Soto worked with me to get my job scheduled, as the dates for some other renovation work that needed to be done first kept moving. His crew got my painting work completed in a single day. I'm very pleased with the quality of the work and the customer service. I would definitely hire them again and recommend their work."

"MR Professional Painting offered us a fair and reasonable price for the job. Everything went well, and the painter did an outstanding job. He never stopped to take a break and when he left everything was spotless. We are so glad we found you guys. We’ll be using MR Professional for future projects."

Customers say: Quick response

"Perez Painting was contracted to resurface and paint our patio structure and wooden features on the front of the house. All interactions went very smooth - from defining and quoting the project, down to timely execution of the 2 day project. As well, they went over and above the contact to paint other small areas that were not included in the original quote. They wanted everything to match. Their team worked very efficiency to get the project done on time. We have more painting projects in the schedule. Perez Painting will be the only call I will make. My wife and I were very happy with the results."

"Immediately I knew Jose’s Painting would be the company to not only bring my home back to life, but would protect it to SUSTAIN the impact of future elements, due to the proposal that was written with extensive care as to HOW they were going to get the house back into shape and WHAT they were going to use. My home has not been painted or stuccoed since the early 80's it needed TLC. This FAMILY OWNED company makes you feel like you are part of the family. Jose aka “Pops” had extensive details of how to make the project come together, while his son Jose had the modern perspective of how to keep the project in current times. The foremen, Elvis explained every detail whenever we had questions or requests. Allen, Gochi, and Ozzy showed up everyday with professionalism and care. The whole team is trustworthy and relatable. I will NOT use any other painting/stucco/interior/exterior specialist for any future project. The care and detail the team provided went above and beyond. WORTH every penny! This one is for the WIN!"

"Javier and his crew did such an amazing job painting the interior of our home. They arrived on time everyday, they work hard to finish the job on schedule, they are very neat and kept our home clean during the entire process. Javier and his screw did everything we discussed on this project and had exceeded our expectations.We had popcorn ceilings, they removed it and turned our ceilings look brand new. They turned our home into our dream home. I would highly recommend MJ Painting to anyone who needed the right company to do the job, hire them. Thank you again Javier and crew. We look forward to working with you again next year for our next project. - The Urbano’s"

"Very thorough and careful in prep work. Did all that work solo. Brought in 1 add'l worker for painting when it seemed the project might go over time allowed. Did nice job, altho clean up was rushed and not his best effort. Paid 1/3 at signing, and rest at completion. Nice guy and very polite!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Los Alamitos, CA

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.
