"Adam from G.Z.L. Painting was the only contact who identified himself by name (great when receiving multiple texts from various contacts). Adam's pricing was competitive and he did not give the impression that the job was too small for consideration. He was polite, friendly, professional, and did an amazing job! We needed an area painted that included split stairs with high ceilings, AND a window area. We are very pleased with his work, and have asked him to do another job. My husband and I would highly recommend Adam to others."

"Great! We got 3 bids and Manny came in with the best price. He was also the most responsive and did a wonderful job on our mobile home. The crew was quick, meticulous, and efficient. He brought in extra crew to finish the job and avoid the rain that was forecasted later in the week. They worked clean and exceeded our expectations, greatly improving the exterior look of our home, finishing the project in 3.5 days."

"Scott painted all the interior walls in our new house, he patched and painted the garage and made it so much nicer, he painted our kitchen cabinets, which turned out beautiful and saved us so much money compared to refacing, and he also painted a tricky accent wall covered with reclaimed wood after patching it, and that changed from a weird problem to an elegant feature of the house. All these projects were expertly done on time while I was away, and his estimates for each were accurate and lower than those of his competitors. When I have other projects I will go straight to him."

"Hector and his crew are excellent! They work with my schedule and they work fast while doing an excellent quality job. They turned my garage into a palace compared to how it was when I started. They reinforced the garage structure and put up drywall on the walls and created a new ceiling with new storage area above. Then the taped, textured and painted. My garage is now the nicest room in the house. Thanks Hector! - Paul V. - San Jose, CA."

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.
