"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!"

"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!"

"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 hired Dede to paint the interior of the house we'd just bought, and he did a great job on a tight timeline. Gaps and stains were caulked and covered, weird scalloped trim removed, and the entire house looks great. They left the house cleaner than they found it. A little expensive, but he worked with us to get closer to our budget, and there was no one else who could get the house done within our schedule. Would definitely rehire and recommend!"

"Anni and his partner did a great job and were totally professional painting my two-story garage. They clearly communicated when they were coming and what they were doing. They did small wood repairs beautifully before painting and the garage looks great. Definitely recommend."

"Artie was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable in a vast array of services. Artie worked for me for over 7 years preforming tasks that varied from converting a small shed to a luxury air bnb, remodeling apartment buildings, restructuring and replacing a large porch, installing washer and dryers as well as dishwashers, and various small home projects. Artie was always punctual and reliable. He completed all jobs in a timely and effective manner. He also fixed projects that were done improperly by other contractors. I also found him to be cost effective in every way. Saving myself time, money, and energy upon every job that I hired him for. Artie still works for me to this day. Heâ s my go to for just about anything and everything!"

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.
