"Alen & Jason were great to work with. They painted our dining room, kitchen and one bedroom. They purchased all the materials, arrived promptly and worked quickly and neatly. They were a pleasure to do work with! We will use them for any future painting projects."

"They did a very professional job including scaping old paint, pressure washing and matching the colors for both the home and the trim perfectly. They cleaned up after and left nothing but a few footprints. No spills or drips anywhere. They were thorough and professional. Definitely would recommend and hire again."

"We had Ani and his coworkers in March. We were very impressed by their professionalism and knowledge. Their quote is reasonable. They also took time to explain before the project and after then, they answered many questions from us. They are nice, funny, and sweet guys. My husband and I became a big fan of them. We are having another project upcoming tomorrow working with them. Very excited! Thank you very much!"

"Palla Painting received my request, provided me with a price a couple days later, and completed painting shortly thereafter. They showed up when they said they would and did a fantastic job painting my deck. I recommend them highly and will definitely be working with them in the future. Thank you Palla Painting!"

"great! My deck had been painted over stained wood. The floor and railings were all peeling and total eyesore. Palma painting came at 8 am moved my deck furniture cleaned and scraped and then sanded everything. They then stained everything the railings and floor and it looks wonderful. Everything was cleaned up perfectly. I could not be happier!"

"I was extremely impressed by how well everything worked for this project. Communication was excellent from the moment I asked for an estimate to accommodating my schedule. On both days of the project it was started on time, the work was done extremely neatly and clean up was great. I was offered a look through to see if I was satisfied with the final results and told to call back if I noticed anything in the next few days or so that needed touch-up. I would not hesitate to have Aldin back to paint again in the future."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Albany, NY

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.
