"I hired Ten Home to come in and repair/repaint several rooms in my home that were badly painted by a previous company. Tom and his staff are incredibly professional, clean, and very hardworking. Very quickly I had a walkthrough, discussed all potential jobs and had an estimate! They installed some baseboards, relocated a wall-mounted TV, installed 2 new ceiling fans, re-caulked the main bathtub/shower combo and fixed some issues with my vinyl plank flooring. Then the paint...they had to smooth all of the walls and sand down before repainting with the best quality paint. Ten Home really did transform my home into something I can be proud of again! Already getting quotes for some other projects!"

"I was very pleased with their services! We thought it was going to take longer but if Iâ m not mistaken it took 1.5 days to paint both rooms after prepping them. The rooms look great and have been complimented on them several times. We are definitely hiring for our next project soon."

"I recently hired Powers Painting and Decorating to do some interior painting in my parents home. They painted the kitchen and bedrooms, and I must say their work was phenomenal! The team was punctual, paid attention to detail, and maintained excellent communication throughout the process. They also made sure to clean up after themselves every day. I would give them 5 stars for their professionalism and exceptional service. I highly recommend Powers Painting and Decorating!"

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.
