"I cannot say enough good things about Valle Painting. I initially hired them to do some exterior painting (gorgeous job!). Mr. Valle showed up to inspect his team's work, we started talking about other work his company does to include decking. My old deck was apx. 30 years old and had gone 15+ years without maintenance. The structure was dirty but in good shape, but the deck surfaces were dry and rotting - and completely unsafe. Mr. Valle walked me through his vision - replace the horizontal surfaces with Trex composite, power wash the verticals and structure pieces, then stain the vertical surfaces to match the Trex. I had been pricing materials to DIY the work, but Mr. Valle's pricing was quite fair, and his service is impeccable. While purchasing the materials, he called to let me know that the color of the Trex sample we chose was slightly off of what he was seeing at the lumberyard. He was worried that it might not look as nice as I expected, and he delayed his purchase until I could take a second look. I was thankful for the call because he was right - and we ended up changing the color at the last minute. Over the course of the two days, Mr. Valle's deck team ripped out the old boards, inspected the structure, added a new joist, made some minor repairs to the structure and rails, and installed Trex on all the horizontal surfaces including the deck stairs. The next day, Mr. Valle came out himself to do the power washing of the rails and structure. The painting team came out the following two days to stain the rails, the deck posts, and the vertical trim pieces. In about a week (plan to finish), I went from having an unsafe eyesore to having a gorgeous, safe, and usable deck that looks like something out of a magazine. I've already recommended Valle Painting to friends and neighbors. And because they do so much more than painting, Valle Painting will will be first in line for some remodeling work in my near future."

"I have a big shed in my yard that needed to be repainted. Isaac washed the entire thing. He then sanded all the existing chipping paint and put a fresh coat on. Looks brand new!"

"I ended up hiring HR Quality Painting to paint my entire house exterior. Power-wash, repair siding, soffits and fascia board as needed, and paint siding and trim. Great price! Hector and his crew were hardworking and efficient. Excellent attention to detail, and good clean up at the end."

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

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.
