"Straight Edge Painting did a top-notch job refinishing my cabinets! From the initial consultation, to preparation, refinishing, and clean-up, the entire team was responsive and attentive to detail. I couldn’t be happier with the result—my kitchen and master bath is beautifully transformed! I highly recommend Wes and the crew!"

"I served with Edsel for two years on an amphibious warship back when he was the Safety Officer onboard. I wanted a unique design for a new entertainment center that you couldn’t find at the big box furniture stores. Edsel quickly came up with a design, developed the drawings, and made a custom piece encompassing all the inputs my wife and I wanted. During the process he educated me on different wood types and explained the specific wood materials chosen for not just style but longevity making it a truly solid piece. I highly recommend Edsel if you are looking for to accomplish any woodworking project(s) in your home that are unique to your style and one of a kind!"

"Carolina Painting and Remodeling did an amazing job with my living room. They helped me choose the perfect color, offered great advice, and were able to come on short notice. The team completed the entire painting project in just one day, including replacing the molding and moving all the furniture back into place. Their professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail were outstanding. I’m extremely happy with the results and highly recommend them"

"Angelo was fantastic, he came same-day to check out my project. He was insightful, curious, and was a huge help! His team came next day to fulfill and complete the drywall project and I could not recommend them more for projects in the Charlotte area. They were extremely friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable answering any questions I had thoughtfully and with patience. As a new home owner, I’ll continue to use Angelo and his team for all future projects!"

"I hired Mr. Handyman for multiple small projects ie, caulking, installing a chair rail, installing shelving in 2 closets, etc. I can't say enough good things about this service and the person they sent. The gentleman was named Frank. Everything was done correctly and efficiently-he's a true professional. The fact that he was very personable is just the icing on the cake-because it could be awkward when a stranger spends 5+hours in your house but he was easy to chat with while he worked. I have one or two more larger "projects" and I will definitely call them again And request Frank"

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