Cabinet Painting: Clear Lake Shores, Galveston County
Sprayed, not brushed — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches cabinet painting, and it does not change between Clear Lake Shores and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: kitchen grease is the single most common reason a cabinet repaint peels, so degreasing is not optional, so the scope gets set on site.
