"970 Pro Painting and its owner Lui Herrera have been amazing with painting projects not only in our office building, but also our business office. The work was performed perfectly from the bidding process through completion. Extremely clean, precise and professional in all aspects of our interactions. Truly an stress-free experience. Highly recommend and will use again for our painting projects in the future."

"Rene did an awesome job on our project. We had our popcorn ceilings removed and the entire interior painted. Although the project was extremely messy, Rene made sure we were satisfied at every stage of the project. We would hire Rene to do work in the future."

"Jason, the owner, came and met us to discuss what we wanted done. He took the appropriate measurements and provided a detailed estimate a few days later (which included testimonials from prior customers). Once we selected him (from the 3 estimates we obtained) we scheduled the work at a time convenient for both parties. When the time came, the painter he sent, Keith Foskey, did a great job. It was apparent that Keith cared about his work and communicated well while he was here. All in all, we were very happy with the results and would use Summit Painting again.

"I came to know Snappy Painting via referral from a friend, as they were very pleased with both the interior painting and exterior staining services they received. I hired these guys for a full head to toe interior repainting project and I must say- I am throughly impressed! Zaneâ s communication, customer service and timeliness was more than satisfactory. Even better is the result- the attention to detail really sets this job apart. He even helped seal my windows just in time for the winter season. I simply canâ t recommend Snappy Painting co. enough! Thanks again, Zane!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Vail, CO

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.
