"I couldn’t be happier with the job Adam and his team at G.Z.L Painting did on our fence! They stained it beautifully, and the chocolate color looks amazing. The whole process was smooth and quick, and the team was incredibly professional. If you’re looking for top-notch work with a hassle-free experience, I highly recommend G.Z.L Painting. Thanks again, Adam!"

"Scott and his guy just painted our Living room, Family Room, Kitchen and 3 hallways. Basically 1/3rd of our home. They moved furniture together and completely covered everything in plastic. Not a single thing was damaged. Attention to detail superb. The quote was as good or better than the other 2 we collected. Our house was left tidy and perfect! Can't say enough about these "Two Men and A Brush"!"

" I had the pleasure of working with Fernando and his team at The Precise Touch Painting, and I can t recommend them enough! They recently painted my kitchen cabinets, and the level of craftsmanship was outstanding. Fernando and his crew are incredibly meticulous, detail-oriented, and truly care about the quality of their work. They paid attention to every little detail and made sure everything was done to perfection. It s rare to find professionals who take this much pride in their craft! They went above and beyond in so many aspects of the job from preparation to clean-up, everything was handled with care and professionalism. I'll absolutely be using them for any future painting projects. If you're looking for top-quality work and a team you can trust, don t hesitate to hire The Precise Touch Painting. Highly recommend!"

"I am so thrilled with the painting Manny and the team completed. They did an excellent job from beginning to end. They took our painting needs for our home and brought it back to life. They were professional, clean, kind, courteous, detailed and went above and beyond to get our painting job done. They offered a fair price to complete all the projects. We loved them so much we continued to find more and more work for the team to do. We had our home exterior and interior painted, the deck repaired and refinished. Manny was able to match our unique interior paint colors from previous owners with flawless execution. He is the most knowledgeable, talented, fair, Professional and kind painter I have ever met. They are extremely hard working and will complete any job perfectly. He goes above and beyond what is expected. He makes any dream come true! We are so fortunate to have been blessed with their painting presence. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for top notch painting in any high end home! Sincerely, Karen Jeffery-Wheeler"

"Ivan and his crew were absolutely wonderful! They not only painted our entire house a new color, but they also removed and replaced window frames that were rotten or termite damaged. All of their work was top notch: professional, friendly, on-time and with excellent communication skills. My wife and I are so pleased with the job Ivan and his crew did, that we highly recommend him to anyone who needs their house painted; you will not be disappointed, I promise you."

"They showed up to actually look at what needed to be worked on, not a quote based on photos. They came when agreed and ended in the time they projected. Very polite, matched the existing wall texture, left the work area clean. They were a pleasure to work with. Would hire them again, no questions asked. Hector exceeded my expectations. Thank you!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Santa Clara, CA

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.
