"I hired PV Painting to paint and do some drywall repair on the interior walls of my home. Petar, the owner, did an outstanding job. He arrived on time every day. He took great care of my home. He covered my furniture and floors before starting work. He used good paint products. He cleaned up at the end of every day. He left matching paint for us; a very nice touch. Petar's skills in painting and drywall are exceptional. I could easily see Petar takes great pride in his work. He was friendly and professional in all my dealings. I did end up adding more work to my project while he was here and he graciously accommodated me. I really appreciated that. I would not hesitate to hire him again!"

"Got estimates from 5 companies - large and small -- to paint (dark stained) 10 cabinet doors and 7 drawers (to off-white). Estimates ranged approx $4200 down to $750. All were going to use the same store and type of paint (Emerald urethane). All but one would separate doors/hinges and use brush or spray on-site, one would remove all and paint in their shop. I couldn't imagine the results would be 4 times better if I went with the high end quotes. Went with Wing at approx $750 (not incl tax) to do job. Zach quoted and thought it would be a 2-3 day job to remove doors/hinges and spray onsite. Three weeks later I got 4 day notice they could start work. A 3 person crew showed up on time and got right to work. Professional, friendly, efficient. They decided to use brush only. I "thought" spray method would provide a better looking finish but "no", the brush method was very good (light stipple effect). One prime coat and one finish coat were accomplished on day 1. Returning on time for day 2, they finished another coat and cleanup in approx 4 hours. Overall: Very satisfied and would hire again."

"Joe turned three very imperfect ceilings in an 80 year old home into a work of perfection. His skills are 2nd to none. Joe was a pleasure to have in my home, neat, very polite, talked about his two boys and wife, and I am searching for other projects to have him back. There is more to your project than price. Joe made it a nice experience for me."

"My dad needed the ceiling in his living room fixed after some water damage. Jose did a great job checking it out, giving us a very reasonable bid and doing top quality work. It was a small project that meant a lot to us, so it was nice that he treated it as seriously as a much bigger repair. We’ll be calling him again."

"We hired Scott to paint the exterior of our 1400 sq ft ranch home. He was half the price of the next lowest quote we received. He did an awesome job and we couldn’t be happier. Communication was great, which is rare with contractors, and he did everything he said he was going to do. Quality job, fantastic price!!"

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Amherst, 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.
