"Very happy with Sadot and his family business. He personally answers the phone 24/7 ( not a call center or 3rd party ) You deal directly with the owner. He communicates every day. He power washed old stain off, fixed and repaired bad and rotten wood, re-stained the desk. He followed price quote, he completed in time frame is originally stated, Workmanship of repairs and staining was PERFECT..these guys ( all family members ) are perfectionist, made sure I was a ratified customer, and his price was VERY REASONABLE, The next time I need anything related to painting, or exterior wood repair and finishing, he will be my first and maybe only call because I trust him, and I don't trust most people, but he earned my trust and confidence."

"It was GREAT! First, his was the most affordable bid. We especially appreciated that because, as we were in the bid-taking process, we had a multi-thousand-dollar plumbing disaster that affected us budget- and time-wise. Saul stuck with us until we were ready, he showed up to the minute at the time we requested and he always wore a mask when he was talking to us, which I appreciated because I"m in the high-risk age group. He kept us updated on how things were going. When he was finished, only 8 hours later for a two-room, double-coat job, he cleaned up, including shop-vacuuming the work area, and put everything back where it was. And the rooms were BEAUTIFUL! We are EXTREMELY pleased with Saul and this company and will call him again for our next paint project."

"We found Las Melas on The Nextdoor App and they were highly recommended. I now see why. I reached out to them with what was meant to be a small kitchen ceiling paint job. They got back to us quickly and agreed to come out for a quote. After discussing the project we agreed on expanding the project to painting the entire first floor of our house. They gave us a fair price and we agreed to start in 2 weeks. Due to bad weather, they were able to start our house project even earlier than expected. They finished painting in 3 days! They do not mess around. We plan to use Las Melas for future projects as well. If you go with Las Melas you will not regret it."

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