"Scott painted all the interior walls in our new house, he patched and painted the garage and made it so much nicer, he painted our kitchen cabinets, which turned out beautiful and saved us so much money compared to refacing, and he also painted a tricky accent wall covered with reclaimed wood after patching it, and that changed from a weird problem to an elegant feature of the house. All these projects were expertly done on time while I was away, and his estimates for each were accurate and lower than those of his competitors. When I have other projects I will go straight to him."

"My front door was a mess. The stain was fading and the shellac was chipping off. It looked horrible. So I decided to buy a new front door. Got several bids, which arranged between $1800 and $15,000. Went on Angie’s list and found Fernando. He came out. Spent a whole day, sanding and prepping the door. Then he came back and put a 2 coats of polyurethane on it. The door now looks better than New. And this all for a fraction of the cost of a new door. I definitely recommend Fernando, and plan to have him come back this summer to work on my rear deck"

"Ivan is great to work with. He is personable and asks the right questions to make sure you will get the end product you want. He painted our entire exterior and made sure the trim details were exactly how I wanted. He also did a great job painting our kitchen cabinets. "

"Juan Urbina did a horrid job on my fireplace surround first with inability to paint around the mantel and when that was apparent added inappropriate caulking which made the situation even worse. He kept trying different approaches, none of which worked. He seemed to be in over his head in a simple paint job. Told me that he was not licensed but that he and his cousins all worked under an uncles license! He has been unresponsive, unprofessional as well as inept. Beware that he could make a simple project worse rather than better"

"I found Melvin by chance after looking for several contractors to paint our townhome (prices were outrageous, between 17k-35k) to paint a 1800sq ft place with very high ceilings in places. Painting was very reasonable at about $9500 plus materials (at about $3000). Their quality of work patching holes big and small, making cracks on the wall look like it never happened, and their attention to detail was unmatched while painting baseboards, door trims, walls and ALL our cabinetry (bathrooms and kitchen). Melvin is a perfectionist! I have never been able to say that about any painter. I know that if you are reading this it will be hard for you to grasp how great this company is. But let me give you peace of mind: YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. THEY HAVE LOADS of pictures of their work for reference. They also have the most awesome handyman (Josue) and the counter top guy (Marvin).. he was incredible and very skilled at refinishing 3 bathroom counter tops. They are very organized and clean up after themselves. I truly feel that I was the luckiest person to have found them and they turn my home into an absolute gem 💎. Please give them a chance. I know how stressful it can be, to be amidst selling your home plus finding the right people to give your place some upgrades. This company was an absolute great find."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Milpitas, 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.
