Customers say: True professional

"We needed someone to paint the exterior of the house and replace some posts and panels for a stretch of fence that had rotted and come down in the wind. A couple of quotes I got were crazy high…and them Sami and his son came out The price they quoted was excellent; now I just had to see if they knew what they were doing. Happily, Sami is the real deal. He cut in the painting expertly and did an excellent job overall, cleaning up after himself as he went. The fence was a bear, as the rotted posts were still anchored in concrete. He and his son dug the cement out, poured new cement, set new poles and reattached the existing panels. The work was professional, the results look great and the price was very reasonable. Now, they are my go to guys for any handyman projects that come up. Highly recommend!"

"100% will hire again. I had a fantastic experience with Mikola LLC, everything from the communication to the attention to detail was impressive. He was very respectful of my space, asked permission as he moved furniture, checked in throughout the project and had a great outcome. My HOA replaced my bedroom ceiling after the hurricane but left the drywall uneven and unfinished. It was a small job that a regular painting company would not take on so I was thrilled that Mikola did such a great job smoothing the drywall joints and painting."

"David and Glenn did my project...completely redoing my porch: cleaning, repairing, painting, rescreening, tiling the floor and installing a ceiling fan. They did great work and worked fast...they barely took a break. They were very professional and courteous and also cleaned up after the project, which some workers I've hired in the past have not. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend them."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Saint Petersburg, FL

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.
