"Jim is a very skilled and dependable handyman. He completed several home projects for me in 2 1/2 days. He was very prompt arriving, worked nonstop each day, and cleaned up each time. He installed a new bathroom light fixture; installed a new storm door; installed new casing and sill for a rotting exterior double door; removed bedroom carpeting and treated stain/odor areas; painted bathroom and bedroom. His work is beyond reproach and work ethics are to be commended. His price is very reasonable. I would highly recommend him to family and friends! GREAT JOB!!"

"PA Paint and Wallcovering did a fantastic job painting the interior of my home. They were professional in every way, courteous and accommodating. They were efficient and clean and finished slightly ahead of schedule. Their work is superior and I will definitely hire them again."

"There was some fine print about only one color allowed for special deal, which precluded doing ceiling or doors or trim for special price. The provider was willing to negotiate and we were able to strike a deal to complete the areas we needed(though some will take place at a later date) Overall very satisfied with quality of the work done so far and look forward to completing the small areas still left."

"Great communication. They showed up at the agreed upon time and got right to work. Cleared the tree quickly. Took care of everything else and were ahead of schedule. We discussed some other projects for the future and plan to use them again!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Altoona, PA

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.
