"Narciso and his team repainted our guest bedroom, guest bathroom and did touch-ups around our house to perfection. It started out with very dark paint, and the switch to light colors required 4 coats! And they did a beautiful job. Within 24 hours of calling, Narciso came to our house. The next day, he emailed us a quote. We signed the contract and his team started painting the next morning. The cost was very reasonable, particularly in comparison to another highly rated company’s quote. We will be using them again for future jobs."

"Working with Grady Jones Painting has been a great experience. Clee took the time to listen to our wants and explain the process necessary to achieve them. It is a fairly big project, but with his attention to detail, our fixer-upper is transitioning into our dream home."

"Mr. Silva was very professional. He kept in contact with me prior to coming out to do the job. He arrived at the time he ssid he would. They did an amazing job on the ceiling. It was an arched wood ceiling with wooden beams. The end results were exceptional. They cleaned up everything when they were done. I am so glad we found Silva painting. I highly recommend them for all your paintings needs."

"Our experience with Cruz Home painting couldn’t have been better. Jesus Cruz was prompt, and pleasant to work with every step of the way. He provided a detailed job description at the outset, and went out of his way to provide stain samples and advice before starting the work. He is a perfectionist, and paid attention to the smallest details along the way. We will definitely hire him again for our next project."

"Randy and son, Chris, arrived on time, or slightly earlier, daily, and this was highly appreciated. They prepped the kitchen, kitchen island, butler pantry, and master bathroom cabinet areas, primed and painted the wood surfaces in the colors we chose. All was completed to our total satisfaction, and we highly recommend their services!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Raleigh, NC

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.
