"Jose and Edgar are the best! We had several rooms painted and six interior doors painted. They were very professional and clean. Jose did a few other jobs (caulking, adding a handicap bar) for no extra charge. I won’t hesitate to call them again!"

"If you’re looking for a team that actually cares about your home as much as you do, you need to hire Kiko’s Painting. We just finished a massive remodel of our 1,700 sq. ft. house, and the transformation is honestly hard to believe. They took our home from a dated 1990s look and brought it straight into 2026. It feels like a brand-new house. They handled everything: Full interior painting (including baseboards & doors) Kitchen and bathroom cabinet refinishing (they look incredible) Refinishing the wood floors and the stairs The quality of the work is top-tier. The best part was working with Francisco and Judy. They didn’t just show up and work; they became trusted advisors and dear friends. Francisco has such a great eye for detail and what works—he showed us examples and gave us recs that "lifted" the whole house. They are "fun" salespeople but with competitive prices —they get you excited about the vision. Would hire them again and again."

"I wanted to get my house painted, wood stained and a couple leaks in the ceiling fixed. I reached out on Angi where they recommended MNM. I'm really happy that I decided to go with them. They have really good reviews and I saw some of their pictures on their website. Guillermo was super responsive and they started the project within days. I've lived in this house for 10 years and have done nothing with these walls so they had a lot of work to do. I'm so extremely happy with the outcome. They transformed this house. Guillermo and Sammy were both so kind and professional. If I had anything that I noticed that needed a touch-up Guillermo came back in about a week and fixed everything. Very trustworthy, Great price and extremely professional. They will be my go-to for any painting projects moving forward. Thank you both so much for all your hard work! "

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