"Paz Painting is simply the best. They were recommended by our realtor who has very high standards. We had 4 different projects with different timelines and some delays that could not be helped. Paz was flexible, communicative, very fair pricing, excellent quality of service. We'll have them working on projects in our new home as soon as we can. I wouldn't go with anyone else. I also like support smaller, locally owned businesses."

"Over the course of the last year Grady Jones Paint has worked for me on (3) different occasions to repaint our home interior. The scope of work included scraping the popcorn ceilings, flattening them and then repainting them; repainting all of the walls; painting our cabinetry; and, finally, staining the exposed woodwork on our deck. Clee was very responsive and visited the project every time his workers were on site. Tim and Eddie made up the crew who did the work. They were amicable, professional, courteous and did a GREAT job. I plan to use Grady Jones Paint for any future work and recommend them to anyone in need of a paint contractor."

"I could not be happier with the work done at my 1900 sq ft townhouse. In just one and a half days, all interior walls and trim were painted. They were in poor shape but now the place looks brand new. I'm just thrilled that I chose Xtreme Painting and will definitely hire them again for my next painting project."

When they were done, the cleaned up everything. The house looks fantastic! And we plan to use their services again in a few months to paint the exterior."

"We’ve used International Painting several times over the years and they always deliver excellent, high quality results on time and on budget. Last week they power washed our house, deck, and driveway; painted the foundation; stained the deck; resealed the driveway; and repainted front entrance. We’re delighted that our 30-year old home looks brand new! Fermin and his team are prompt, polite, and professional. Fermin shared his insurance without asking and the team cleaned up every day. We’re extremely happy and will use International Painting again in the future for some interior work."

"5 star I recently hired That 1 Painter to repaint the interior of my home, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless. That 1 Painter was prompt, professional, and incredibly detail-oriented. They took the time to properly prep the rooms, ensuring the surfaces were smooth and ready for painting. The final result is flawless — the walls look fresh, vibrant, and beautifully finished. What impressed me most was That 1 painter’s commitment to quality. They worked quickly without sacrificing attention to detail, and the entire job was completed on schedule. The cleanup afterward was also spotless — you would never know anyone had been working in the house. I highly recommend That 1 Painter for any painting project. Their expertise, professionalism, and friendly demeanor make them stand out in a crowded field. I will definitely be calling them again for future projects! Thank you, That 1 painter for transforming my home"

Small jobs welcome

"Many painters are not eager to take on a small job. Ryan took a look at a dining room ceiling that had water stains from a plumbing leak. The ceiling needed repair and the molding required sanding and painting , due to water damage. Ryan was wonderful. He arrived on time, ready to work. He was polite and pleasant. He ran into an unusual situation, called and called me to point it out,, then went about fixing the issue, that must have been there since the house was built, 20 years ago. I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and his work! My next painting project, I will hire Ryan as my painter! ! I paid for a quality job and I certainly got a high quality result! He is the neatest painter I have worked with in 40 years! Thank you, Ryan!!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Wake Forest, NC

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.
