"These guys were incredible! Not only did they stain my deck with the proper product, but they replaced boards that were warped or rotten. They were reliable and traveled more than an hour to get here each day until they were finished. I would recommend them for any kind of paint job."

"The very polite crew showed up on time. They immediately laid down a protective path to the room being painted in order to keep mud or dirt or paint from getting on our floors. The project was to paint our master bathroom and they were done in less than an hour. The finished product was excellent and most of all they are very reasonably priced. I do intend to hire them for additional home improvement projects."

"Jeff and his wife Marlena did a wonderful job painting the interior and exterior of our home. Overall experience was great ... they were both easy to get along with, polite, punctual, very neat/tidy, and constantly communicated updates to keep us appraised of progress and estimated completion time. Work quality was very good, and they even got more done than they anticipated in the timeframe we had available. I would highly recommend Jeff for any type of painting work."

"Harrison and his crew exceeded my expectations! They extensively prepped our house including covering all surfaces that should not be painted, and caulking all the seams before painting. I was nervous about getting the exterior of our home painted, but was so pleased with the final result! Harrison made sure the job was completed smoothly and quickly. Thanks for a job well done!"

"Amanda was great! Had a major crack in the kitchen window from either hail or a rock that spread really quickly. She replaced it, and you can’t tell anything ever happened! Very precise and takes her time which I appreciate."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in San Marcos, TX

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.
