"We needed the ceiling and walls of our 1800 sqft home painted. The results were outstanding, from quote to finish. The crew was very professional, pleasant and hard working completing the project as quoted and on time. Would definitely recommend Five Star Painting."

"We currently have Peters Painting doing interior painting of a large part of our house including cabinets. In 40 years with multiple painters we have never had such a great experience, Eric was so helpful in arranging the painting and making sure this complex job was done correctly, The crew of Steve, Reggie, and Jason were compulsive about detail work and did an amazing job and were so pleasant to deal with, This company is top-of-the line quality but reasonably priced, I would recommend them to anyone. They are a community treasure,"

"Carlos and his team completed the project earlier than originally planned and did an excellent job! They kept me up to date about what's going on and also did a minor repair for us for our deck painting project."

Customers say: True professional

"Tom and Jeanette and their helper were amazing! They arrived when we agreed, they finished a variety of handyman projects quickly and did a decent job. That included painting our deck floor, replacing and painting trim, fixing rotted window sills, and rebuilding a wood platform for our refuse containers. The price quoted was worth getting long overdue work completed. The language barrier is a factor, but not at all a reason not to do business. They are immigrants from Mongolia! Tom worked for ten years in construction in Korea. We would certainly recommend them and call them again."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Madison, WI

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.
