"Third time I've hired Greg Sefner for painting work in my apartment. Excellent work on original, 100+ year old plaster walls and ceilings patching, painting, and addressing wallpaper bubbling off walls."

"I contacted High Quality Painting LLC to repaint my fence after severely neglecting it for many years. Most of the paint was already stripped or peeling away, and had been for years, so there was significant damage to the wood as well. They were very confident about identifying the damaged boards and replacing them as well. When they got started, they found quite a few more damaged boards, and ultimately replaced more than what was quoted at no charge. They also recommended I get the fence stained instead of repainted, which is something I had not considered, and am very glad they pointed me in that direction because I think it will help prevent many of the problems I had in the future and be much easier to maintain. The workers were professional and willing to show up on incredibly hot days in between the rainy days to get the work done. I brought up another issue with the gate of the fence rubbing when opened, and that was also fixed at no charge which I appreciated."

"I highly recommend Juan and his crew. They painted my garage and 2 story home. Juan and his crew were prompt, polite, very professional. They answered all my questions and as they worked, they addressed all the details of the project, as we had discussed. They kept their work area clean as they painted and cleaned up the work area completely when they were finished each day. They appropriately protected areas and items near the painting that they were not painting. Juan and his crew kept me up to date with the project as it progressed. Juan and his crew were a pleasure to work with."

"We recently hired Casey and his team for help painting 4 rooms in a new condo. He was flexible on the package provided and worked with us to refine the scope of the project based on what we could afford. The job they did was fantastic. Lots of intricate trimwork and painting around fixtures/cabinets. 10/10 would recommend and hire again."

"Derek and his crew really came through for us on short notice and did a fantastic job! We were in the process of remodeling our kitchen and main level when we learned that the painter we had used for years suddenly left the business. The remodeling contractor (who did not do painting) was going to install the cabinets in a week and I wanted to get the walls painted before the cabinets went in. I contacted Derek and he responded promptly. Even though he was booked he managed to come for a few hours and prime/paint before the cabinets went in. He also gave me a very fair estimate that indluded premium Benjamin Moore paint to complete the paint job in the kitchen, remainder of first level, powder room and upper level hall. Derek brought his crew in when the remodel was done and got all the prep and painting done. They were punctual and professional from start to finish. They were respectful of our house and cleaned up so well as they went along you would not have known they were there in the first place except for the great looking paint job. We were particulary concerned about an oak-stained bay window that they had to sand and paint white but the end result looks terrific. We definitely plan to use them for future painting jobs."

Small jobs welcome

"Review of Excellent Bathroom Renovation Services We recently had our bathroom renovated by a fantastic company, and I couldnâ t be more pleased with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism and dedication were evident. The team was incredibly hardworking, consistently putting in long hours, often working 8-10 hours a day to ensure everything was perfect. Their commitment to the job was impressive, and they maintained this high level of effort throughout the entire project. Jasmine, who managed our project, was always available to answer any questions or address concerns. Her responsiveness was a huge relief and ensured that we were always in the loop about the progress. Financially, they were very accommodating. They worked with us to find a payment plan that we could afford, which was immensely helpful and took a lot of stress out of the process. One of the standout aspects of their service was their willingness to go the extra mile. They handled several unforeseen issues that cropped up during the renovation without any hassle, ensuring that everything was completed to the highest standard. The end result was a beautifully renovated bathroom that exceeded our expectations. The project was completed right on schedule, just as they had promised. The entire experience was smooth and headache-free, making it a pleasure to work with them. I would not hesitate to work with this company again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality renovation work. Their dedication, flexibility, and excellent customer service truly set them apart."

"Carlos was responsive, did a great job, left the work site clean after and was happy to make sure I was happy. The project timeline was extended a little but I asked him to do more then what we originally talked about. I would absolutely hire them for any future painting needs."

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