"Alex painted all of our stucco last year and while he was here he told me he could do our driveway. I ended up giving him redoing our driveway and all and all it was HUGE project. Then less than a year after different parts of the driveway paint started to peel. I have asked him to come since March 3rd to repair and he promised several times he will show up. Never did. Never takes my calls and after having called him multiple times I got a text from him this morning that he will let me know when he has time! Here are the screenshots. Very disappointing. I thought I had found a reliable painter but he doesn?t stand behind his with. I don?t recommend this business"

"Project: paint 2 bedrooms. Painted one the wrong color. They repainted it the correct color, but at the expense of the second bedroom; paint for that one was mostly used in wrong room. One bedroom left â  finished,â  except for various trim that was primed but not painted and streaky trim. Second bedroom left with sheer veil of color that shows streaks and does not cover pencil marks and scuffs. Closet doors painted wrong color and I was toldâ  everyoneâ  has closet doors painted as I did not want them., I am now repainting that toom. Mark Johnson does not oversee his workers, instead he followed me around my house telling me what is wrong and how he could fix it. Very disappointing. Leftover lunch on my bed. Spilled mineral spirits in my yard. Overall terrible experience."

"I really can't say enough About Adhesion Painting! Working with Geoffrey really was a great experience, from beginning to end, they really took care of everything at a very competitive price. He and his crew were calm, clean, and straight to work with the least amount of disruptions possible. Geoffrey's experience on color choices, and applications really made for a very smooth process. And most of all, when they were all done and gone with receiving the final payment, I noticed a few areas which needed some attention. I contacted Geoff, and he came over when he said he would and took care of everything with the utmost professionalism. Not only would I trust him with another job, I really can't say enough to recommend him and his company to anyone with the need for having a painting project done. If you are lucky enough to book Adhesion Painting, I'm sure you'll have as positive experience as we did! In one word, flawless! Thank you Adhesion, you're the best!! — David"

Cabinet Refacing and Refinishing questions, answered by experts

Technically, you can paint over stained cabinets without sanding. There are specialty paints that are made precisely for not sanding cabinets. However, many interior cabinet paints work just as well. 

To make sure you have a smooth surface without sanding, you’ll need to degrease the cabinets thoroughly, add a bonding coat for strength, add primer, and then finally paint your cabinets. It’s still a process regardless of whether you sand your cabinets.

Costs depend on the paint quality, cabinet size, prep work, and labor. Estimates typically range from $800 to $3,000.

A kitchen remodel can be a major undertaking, depending on how much you change. If you’re changing the kitchen layout, you might be tempted to scrap everything and start fresh, but there are a few different ways to save money throughout the process. 

  • Keep your existing cabinets and reface or repaint them 

  • Consider choosing budget appliances and fixtures 

  • DIY when possible, such as painting walls yourself

  • Choose prefabricated cabinets instead of custom cabinetry

  • Choose affordable flooring options where possible

Liquid sandpaper is a solvent used to soften existing layers of paint and make them porous enough that you can effectively apply a new coat of paint. You rub the liquid sandpaper on, wait for it to work, and wipe it off—no literal sanding is involved. Liquid sandpaper can save time and is helpful if parts of the cabinet are hard to reach with standard sandpaper. However, like paint stripper, liquid sandpaper creates dangerous fumes and must be used with care indoors. And unlike sanding, it can’t fix any scratches or dings in your cabinets.

The cost to paint kitchen cabinets is $900 on average but can range anywhere from $175 to $3,000 for a large kitchen. You can expect to pay between $3 and $10 per square foot for this project. 

The type of paint can impact your total cost. Latex and acrylic paint typically range from $20 to $50 a gallon, but oil-based paints can cost as much as $80 per gallon. Smaller kitchens that are 100 square feet cost between $300 and $1,000 to paint the cabinets, whereas large kitchens of 400 square feet can cost up to $4,000.
