"Excellent Work and Outstanding Service! I found Jose Rosales Painting through Angi’s List and couldn’t be happier with the results. Jose provided a fair quote for painting our studio/garage and made the process effortless—I simply selected the paint color, and he handled the rest. The transformation was completed in just one day. The lead painter, also named Jose, was detail-oriented, meticulous, and courteous throughout the project. His professionalism and positive attitude made it clear he takes pride in his work. Our studio now looks sparkling clean and beautiful. I highly recommend Jose Rosales Painting and will definitely hire them for future projects. Thank you!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​"

"We had a great experience with Dream Painting for our exterior house painting. From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and easy to work with. Communication was clear throughout the process, and they took the time to make sure everything was done right. The crew showed up on time, worked efficiently, and paid close attention to detail. Our house looks fantastic, and the quality of the work really shows. The project was completed on schedule, and the results exceeded our expectations. We would absolutely recommend Dream Painting to anyone looking for high-quality exterior painting and a smooth, stress-free experience."

"We were very happy with the way that the proprietor worked with us to choose the right colors for our home. The crew he put on the job were professional and extremely courteous and took good care to protect the house while doing the paint job. There was also substantial drywall work involved, which was done with a very high degree of competence"

"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."

"Fernando was very accommodating and easy to work with, as a family of four were living in the house as its interior was painted. He and his crew did an excellent job and handled everything smoothly and professionally. They are very punctual as well. I cannot say enough good things about FST painting, and would gladly hire them again."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Stanford, 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.
