"Both jobs were done with attention to detail, started on time and ended on time. Brett always explains what needs to be done and why; he explains the condition of the old paint and whether or not it needs to be painted or it can wait for a later date. There are 2 reasons I mentioned the 2010 painting. 1) Brett buys only better quality paint and the interior of our house still looks good 8 years later. 2) We needed the whole house textured (skip-trowel) and Brett brought in a top professional to do the work. Our ceilings were cracked and sagging in a number of rooms and 8 years later they still look good; the cracks are still gone, and ceilings LOOK flat. I highly recommend Brett for painting jobs."

"What can I say? Saul and his crew are Just great people through and through! They did a fantastic job at painting the exterior of my two story house. They were responsive and professional. They were also fairly priced, considering the size of the job, which included patching, etc. I was particularly happy about their willingness to accommodate last minute small changes and requests. I highly recommend and will use for our interior painting in the near future."

Before pictures
(Before Pic)Home was pressure washed with a 3000 psi machine to remove as much dirt and grime from the exterior house wall surfaces before painting. We sanded all the bad areas and spot primed them before painting. Used caulking to seal any open grooves and open wood joints as needed.
(Before l) This photo shows the condition of the cabinet before it was refinished. You can see the stain is faded and clear coat is chipping away from water damage and moisture in the air.
Exterior Repaint
Prepped the door for painting. Sanded it then primed it. Removed the door handle and carefully covered the hinges before spray painting the door.

"Brannick Painting just finished a complete exterior repaint of our house in El Cerrito, including staining our deck. Patrick and his team were wonderful to work with. Patrick helped us with color selection, painting large sheets of posterboard with several colors we considered, so we could hold them up to the house in different lighting to see how they would look when finished. we have heard from others that they had small swatches painted on their house and Patrick’s approach is so much more helpful. Patrick is also extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of preparation and painting. We have an old stucco house that needed a lot of detailed preparation. His crew is very experienced, and they did an excellent job repairing and preparing all of the cracks and blemishes on our house. We are very happy with the final product. We highly recommend using Brannick Painting."

"Finish Coat Painting (Atiba and crew) were extremely professional at all times. They meticulously removed all the popcorn from ceilings, retextured and beautifully repainted ceilings, walls and woodwork. Each night of the project the house was left clean, vacummed and usable for the evening. At end of day, we were told what was done, and what was planned for the following day. Each morning, received a call telling us ETA of the team. Highly recommend Finish Coat Painting! Will be calling them to paint exterior of house this fall. Thanks again!"

"FOR POPCORN REMOVAL or PAINTING PROJECTS, CALL KANNEL'S PAINTING SERVICE. I hired Kannel's to remove popcorn from my ceiling. They completed the work last week and did a fantastic job. Rene and his team are a painting company, but they're also experienced at popcorn removal. This was a tough job, involving five rooms (including bedroom closets) and the hallway. For one thing, the popcorn had been painted, which presents an extra challenge. Painted popcorn is harder to remove; water alone is not enough to soften it. But Rene and his team knew how to tackle it. Additionally, the ceiling had three cracks, two of which were seriously unsightly, that had developed over the years as a result of poor support of the sheet rock during the initial construction. Rene and his team went into the attic, placed 2x4 supports in the right locations, and then secured the sheet rock to the supports. In this way, they were able to stabilize the ceiling in the cracked areas and then patch and paint. After the popcorn removal, they took care of all additional necessary patching, then primered and painted the entire ceiling (two coats). They are seriously hard, steady, consistent workers. They arrived and left at the same time each day until the job was done. I was at the house each day and I saw how hard they worked. They put forth a tremendous effort and I am extremely pleased with the result. It truly looks like a brand new ceiling. Their price was competitive and I'd hire them again. I highly recommend KANNEL'S PAINTING SERVICE for popcorn removal and for all of your painting needs. His company has 16 years of experience. Call Rene at 510-502-5483."

"We had a small window of time between when the previous owners were moving out and we were moving it to have some work done and Michael was able to make that happen for us! The garage of our new house needed the walls and ceiling repainted before we could have the new flooring put in. Michael was quick to respond, efficient in the process, came out to consult and color match first, and was able to do the job in record time. It made SUCH a difference to the space. He patched a repaired a few spots on the walls, removed hanging hardware and prepped/taped off anything that needed it. All super professionally done. There was one area that started cracking while it drying and Michael was quick to respond and come fix, no questions asked. I would hire Michael again without hesitation (and plan to when we decided to paint some rooms!)."

"Mr Lopez at AOL painting is awesome. He is very professional from start to finish. He keeps his work are clean and picked up. I had a family emergency and gave them free access to my house without worrying about anything. Completely satisfied with the out come of the repairs and painting. If I need a painter again he would be the only one I call. I had 4 quotes and AOL was among the lowest charging as well."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Walnut Creek, 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.
