"Danny is the best painter we have ever used. His crew were all very professional, prompt and hard working. We had our whole interior painted. From ceiling, crown molding, chair rails, walls the whole house. Price was very fair for the scope of the job. Start to finish A+ for sure. "

"Dan painted the entire interior of our house as part of a remodeling job. He worked around our schedule which was great and broke the job up into smaller projects which we appreciated. We couldn’t be more pleased with the finished project!"

"I wish I had before pictures so you could see the difference! We had the same thing done three years ago, and the outcome was not close to the work Tracey did. He cleaned and sealed the concrete patio, power washed, replaced a few boards on the sides of the deck and used a semi-transparent stain the deck/bench seating/side boards. The price was a bit lower than our other bid, his communication and customer service was outstanding, and we have already shared his contact information with neighbors looking for their own 'deck revival'"

"DO. NOT. USE. THIS. COMPANY. Read this honest review before you chose ONIT painting. The photos attached don’t even begin to tell the horrific 3 week painting circus we endured. All of our door and window hardware ruined, brand new carpet in 2 bedrooms ruined, paint all over our bathroom floors that will not come out, windows painted shut, painters collecting tools late at night and quitting mid-job, dirty caulking tools and sandpaper sitting on new white carpet, questionare being completely disregarded. We paid over $2500 for this mess and didn’t get any money back. A manager asked to come see it weeks after we complained but never followed through. ONIT is an absolute joke of a company and I hope this honest review saves your home from being destroyed."

"We were in need of having our gutters, downspouts, and roof valleys cleaned out. They arrived within a week of our initial contact. The job was completed quickly and they let us know exactly what they found and resolved. I would recommend this company."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Indianapolis, IN

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.
