"Tom was in communication about wanting to paint in ideal conditions when the humidity was down, as the project was painting the interior of my garage. Once they started they took their time to make sure I was satisfied and even put more coats on in the high traffic areas to be sure the paint lasts longer. They did a wonderful job and I would highly recommend for paint projects."

"We hired Performance Painters to paint our kitchen, kitchen cabinets and family room. Ken offered us a very reasonable price for the job. He is a professional painter who pays close attention to details. We cannot be happier with his work. My cabinets that were old and outdated look brand new along with the entire kitchen/family room area. Ken is now my go-to for all my painting projects. We definitely recommend Performance Painters."

"Punctual, fair prices, attention to detail, absolutely beautiful work. My son hired David to paint some rooms in his new condo. I saw his work and was impressed, so I had him paint three rooms at my house. It went so well and I was so pleased I had him paint three more rooms! And in the spring I hope to have him back to paint my garage. David spends as much time as needed on preparing the surfaces, and the final results are amazing. A very positive experience all three times - I recommend him highly!"

"great work! flexible hours, but got my job done in the expected 3 days and the process was seamless. i needed my plaster ceiling ripped down and replaced with drywall to repair some water damage. he found the source of the water and rerouted the issue to a drain so it wouldn't happen again. he went above and beyond for this job he went and picked up my paint color and cleaned up after himself and even fixed my broken door without me asking and didnt increase the price. Will definitely hire again"

"We found Las Melas on The Nextdoor App and they were highly recommended. I now see why. I reached out to them with what was meant to be a small kitchen ceiling paint job. They got back to us quickly and agreed to come out for a quote. After discussing the project we agreed on expanding the project to painting the entire first floor of our house. They gave us a fair price and we agreed to start in 2 weeks. Due to bad weather, they were able to start our house project even earlier than expected. They finished painting in 3 days! They do not mess around. We plan to use Las Melas for future projects as well. If you go with Las Melas you will not regret it."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Oak Brook, IL

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.
