"From the point of first contact throughout the entire experience, this company represents quality of service, professional behavior on site and in communication, above quality in prep and finished product. Everything is covered and care is taken to protect property not being painted. Arrive on agreed upon date and finished ahead of schedule. Every detail in the project was addressed with care. Ready to hire again for interior rooms. I asked three companies to quote our job. Montaño painting made an appointment and communicated arrival time and was on time. One company gave us a quick once over with a one line quote, but was late and rescheduled once. The third company rescheduled twice but never showed up to see the job. Montaño Painting is a highly professional organization and I would recommend their service to anyone needing large or small paint project."

"ALR Painting did such a fantastic job. My home was built in 1908 and the original paint was chipping away and old. Alex was able to match the exact color of the house and went above and beyond my expectations. I was particularly impressed with the care he took in prepping the home prior to painting- scraping, sanding, and caulking. The paint job wasn’t easy. Alex definitely takes pride in his work and he managed to complete the project much faster than I expected. My house looks AMAZING! I could not be happier with my experience and I highly recommend ALR Painting to others."

"My husband a I recently bought our first home in the summer of 2018. The first improvement on the list was to repaint. All the walls throughout the house and the master bedroom baseboards were painted a very unpleasant brown. Being someone who grew up around construction and worked for a remodeling company I have a good eye for quality work. Custom Applications Painting exceeded my expectations. Our initial consultation was wonderful, they understood my vision, preferences and helped narrow down my color choices. When it came down to getting the job done Custom Applications Painting were quick, efficient and respectful of our space. They even made our deadline before our housewarming party. I had several friends and family members complement the work they had done and some even took pictures. Our house is now a home thanks to Custom Applications Painting. I will be working with them again on our next project!"

"Very well. It was the interior of one of my mother's rentals. Tim was very organized, focused and professional. He comes in with an action and gets everything done in a timely manner. Emil and Tim are both problem solvers, hard working and polite. I would recommend them for any project big or small."

"It went very well.  I contacted him initially in late November.  He was busy and so was I so we scheduled the work for 12/28.  That day he called early to tell me he would be a little late.  He arrived and went right to work.  He tore off our old wallpaper and removed the under layer.  Then he applied a coat of plaster to the entire wall.  He applied it very smoothly so there was no waste and little sanding needed.  He had us put a heater and fan blowing on the wall to dry it thoroughly.  He came back the next day and sanded the wall.  That only took about an hour.
He was thorough, quick and efficient.  I was happy with the work and would definitely recommend him to others.

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