"Our experience with Cruz Home painting couldn’t have been better. Jesus Cruz was prompt, and pleasant to work with every step of the way. He provided a detailed job description at the outset, and went out of his way to provide stain samples and advice before starting the work. He is a perfectionist, and paid attention to the smallest details along the way. We will definitely hire him again for our next project."

"Narciso was wonderful and stress free to work with from the initial estimate until the final payment. We found him and his employees prompt, professional, and did excellent work. His price was fair and reasonable. They even game on the 4th of July to touch up, and to our surprise, cleaned the front window by the doors. We also hired them to power wash our walk/driveway and clean the gutters.We have had more than a few compliments on our home. Without a doubt, from now on, Paz Painting will be our go-to for any painting, pressure washing, or gutters cleaning needs."

"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."

"All-Pro Painting was, by far, the best! From the initial meeting with Chad, who explained the entire process and what to expect, to the crew who did the work, it was all amazing. Highly recommend them!"

"We purchased a mid-century farm house and nearly every room had cracks on the plaster walls and ceilings. As well as wallpaper throughout the kitchen and all the bathrooms. Naturally, our family did not have the expertise or time to address all the cosmetic fixes in the house therefore, we decided to recruit professional painters. We had multiple general contractors and painters visit the house to review the work needed to repair the walls, ceilings, kitchen, baths, patio and shed, but none of these businessmen were as thorough and articulate as Mr. Fermin Ortiz owner of “International Painting LLC.” Fermin spent almost three hours walking through the house and property. Taking detailed notes of all the discrepancies we wanted mended and all the while explaining how fix each defect. We were simply surprised of Fermin’s willingness to share the trade techniques to us and we were greatly appreciative that he clarify each method of repair to the plaster, ceiling, wallpaper and removing the lead off the patio and shed. Based on Fermin’s knowledge and honesty. We decided to engage him over the other contractors who had submitted proposals for the project. Once the job was underway, it was apparent that Fermin and his staff are artisans with a fondness of detail. They spent a week and a half merely preparing all the surfaces ready to paint. Sanding, steaming and sealing cracks seemed an eternity, but the time was well spent. The house is a new home with a fresh coat of paint. Gone are the cracks, wallpaper and glue, lead. Mr. Fermin Ortiz is a craftsman. Should you require his expertise? Be assured that he and his staff will do their utmost to deliver the best product for you. And above all their workmanship is unrivalled by any other contractor in our area."

"Henry and team did such a nice job on our project. Pricing was competitive, they were friendly yet professional, and took care to make sure their work was top notch. Will definitely have them come back to do more painting when finances permit."

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