Semi-Gloss Paint, Perfect for Kitchens and Baths

Semi-gloss paint is the go-between -- the intermediary, if you will -- between glossy and flat finishes. Semi-gloss is the middle ground. It is ideal for homeowners who don't want the extreme reflectivity of a high-gloss finish but also would like to steer clear of the dull vulnerability of a matte finish.

 

Also called a satin finish by some paint makers, semi-gloss is not too glossy but can still take a good cleaning (several of them actually). For this reason it is especially popular in children's rooms and often found in kitchens and bathrooms as well.

 

Semi-gloss is (ideally) just flat enough to conceal wall imperfections but still glossy enough to prevent staining and provide durability.

Here is what has been said about our House Painting Contractors:

Thank you John for a superb job especially the way you cleaned up at the end of each day, it was nice to come home after work and find our home in same manner as we had left that morning except for the beautiful new paint on our walls and trim. I will highly recommend Burke Painting to any of my family and friends who are looking for a custom painter.

I've already recommended you to a couple of my friends. Thank you for a first rate custom paint job, my doors look like they have a factory paint finish on them. Exactly what I was looking for. -- Darlene - Lafayette
