The owner is patient with his crew and will give instructions in a constructive / positive tone- I appreciated that about him. They had strong attention to detail. He came highly recommended from a co-worker and expectations were met. Looking forward to a continued partnership. "

"Let me tell you about this guy right here. We had just bought our house and my husband was deployed. I was still living in Virginia Beach at the time and would drive back and forth to get the house in order. I found Steve On home advisor and felt comfortable with him right off the bat. I could not get my colors right and he picked up on the direction I was trying to go in and picked my color without me even being present! He sent me pictures and talked to me consistently when I was out of town and I totally put my trust in him. When I got home I was more than surprised and very very happy with the color on the walls! It was exactly what I wanted! Steve is just an all-around awesome person and I would definitely call him before I call anyone else. He has a great listening ear and picked up what I wanted very quickly. Very friendly, pays attention to detail, affordable, and is very trustworthy! I even gave his information to my realtor to give to her clients. I stand behind Steve and his work 100%!!! Will hire again in the near future!"

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