"We had Leo and his crew repair and stain our deck a few years ago, and had them back to paint our main level - bedrooms, bathroom, living room, family room, kitchen, and laundry. They also removed and refinished popcorn ceilings. Besides doing a great job. The guys from High Rollers are just fun to have around the house."

"Steve Schultze did a great job. He explained what he would do, and then over 3 separate, short trips, he did exactly what he had said he would. The ceiling looks like new, and the crack has been fixed very well. He was personable, friendly and on time."

"I had my ceiling painted in my entire house. I had smoke damage from my wood stove and paint on the ceiling. The previous home owner had a little girl who painted her room purple and got some of the paint on the ceiling. Dwayne did a beautiful, professional job. I could tell that he is proud of his work and his attention to detail. There was no dripping. The lines where the walls and ceiling met were crisp. I was surprised he cleaned my house and moved my furniture back after he was finished. I didn’t expect that. I would definitely hire him again for future paint jobs."

"Just terrific to work with. Professional, on-time, and priced right. Ivan took care of reviewing the 2 small projects (that seemed overwhelming to me!), scheduling the work and came back for final inspection, after his crew finished up. I am newly widowed and am much at ease now, knowing my storage shed is like new and the mailboxes at the foot of the driveway are solidly in place and won't fall over. Will confidently recommend this company to anyone."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Forest Lake, MN

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.
