"We have done several painting jobs with Jorge and would hire him again in the future! Very detailed, trustworthy and knowledgeable about finishes and products to use for your projects. Also, very responsive to calls and text messages and shows up ready every time we schedule work. All the painting work that Jorge has done for us, interior and exterior, looks fantastic."

"This company is absolutely fantastic. Very competitive on pricing and their work is flawless. We had several rooms painted, probably at least 1500 square feet in total. They also fixed several drywall issues we had and repaired numerous cracks. I have not found one missed spot or one sloppy spot. This was not an easy job either, as we had some difficult areas to paint, including a large Pantry in our Kitchen that already had a bunch of built-ins. The crew worked tirelessly and were extremely clean. My wife and I have used other painters in the past with very mixed results, so we can truly appreciate the fine work that was done on this project. Highly Recommend!"

"I highly recommend BMB Painting. They did an amazing job painting my condo and was incredibly patient throughout the entire project; very accommodating every time I changed my mind or added something new. The results turned out beautifully and the price was very reasonable. Excellent work and great professionalism. So glad I found them!!"

"Working with JHR was a very smooth process. I had a leak in my ceiling and plumbers came out to cut a hole in the ceiling and repair the pipe. I sent Juan a photo of the hole in drywall via email, and they sent back a quote within a few hours. Their quote was in a professional format, and was the cheapest of the 3 quotes I received. I ended up hiring them and Rogelio came out on a Saturday to complete the work. The final product was beautiful, and it looked like there was never a hole there in the first place. They also repainted the ceiling which now looks way better than it did before! I will definitely be hiring them for future repair projects and painting (which is their specialty)."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Skokie, IL

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.
