"I chose Precise Painting and Restoration out of four other painters I had over because Juan ensured me he could replace the few rotten siding pieces I had on my house. That was valuable to me because I didn't have to find a separate contractor to do the work. During the repair and painting project, Juan would let me know what he was going to work on and gave me updates during the day. Juan and his whole crew were very professional and hard working. My house looks absolutely beautiful!"

"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 My cabinets that were old and outdated look brand new along with the entire kitchen/family room area.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."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Oak Lawn, 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.
