"I highly recommend CRS Painting. They have done so many home improvement projects for us and every one of them has been outstanding. They painted the exterior of our raised ranch, put down a new wood floor, and painted our family room. The most recent project, in November 2025, was painting our dining room, living room, halls and a bedroom and installing and staining six doors. Their is exceptional. When they paint they move all the furniture, cover it carefully and put it back neatly. They patch all the holes in the walls and cracks in the ceilings. They pay attention to every single detail and are friendly and responsive. I will definitely hire Celso and CRS for our next home improvement job. "

"From the time I met Sheki, I felt really comfortable hiring J & S Painting to do the work we needed around the house. We have now used them twice in the past year for two large painting projects at our house. Sheki's prices were competitive compared to all the other quotes I got. If I had any questions while the work was going on, Sheki and Pam, the office manager, would respond quickly. I initially hired J&S in Fall of 2019 to paint my basement, sand and paint all the wooden siding and trim on the exterior of my house, paint the window shutters, power wash the exterior of my house, and stain my deck. Jose and the crew did an amazing job over multiple days completing all the work and cleaning up all the materials. I ended up expanding the scope of the project and also had Jose replace the top railings on my deck, which they did for a very fair price. When I also asked Sheki if they could also paint the metal railings on my front steps, he didn't even charge me extra for it. A few months after the initial project was complete, we decided to paint the majority of the interior of the house this summer (July 2020). We went back to Sheki and J & S Painting. They painted the walls, ceilings, trim, and doors in multiple rooms (including a room with cathedral ceilings) with two coats in two days. I also had them paint the risers, stringers, and baluster on our stairs. Work also included painting a portion of the aluminum siding on the side of the house. The crew was quick, efficient, precise, and did excellent work. I will hire J & S Painting again the next time we have a painting project."

"I’m pleased to recommend MS Painting and Home Improvements, LLC. Martin and Eddie thoughtfully corrected work that had been poorly done by a previous painter, handling everything from stripping and staining the ceiling beams and front doors to painting three rooms, all trim, the stairwell, and hallways. Their attention to detail, cleanliness, and professionalism were evident throughout the project. I would be happy to work with them again."

"I had a great experience working with Anthony from A&T Family Painting. He was on time, professional, and clearly knowledgeable. He replaced several interior doors in our home and did so with care and precision. The work was done efficiently, and the end result looks great. Highly recommend! "

"Taylor Painting was very honest when it came to giving me a fair and reasonable estimate on my specific project. I found Larry to be extremely professional, trustworthy, and an expert in his field (choosing the proper materials/ techniques to paint wicker furniture). I will definitely be using this company again in the future!"

"Due to outdoor water damage on our window sills and trims we needed to find a pro to replace the water damaged sections. This was our first time using Angie’s list and we expected nothing but the best. After a little over a month from the initial contact date with palette pro, our project was finally started. The cost of labor was very high considering that the carpenter sent out to work on our home was only here for a few hours within 2 days, with the second day only painting was left to finish. Although we are very pleased with the work that the carpenter did for us we were left with a bad taste in our mouth when we returned home from work and found various pieces of old wood, debris, and multiple 3 inch nails that were left in our driveway where we park our cars. Because of this and the cost of labor for very little work, we will not be choosing palette pro for any future home repairs. I would like to say that Andre and Sophie were great to work with when it came to getting a virtual quote and setting up a start date, they kept us informed and were very pleasant and easy to work with."

Customers say: Quality work

"Baldo was courteous, knowledgeable, and always on time. He and his crew prepped and painted my front porch floor, and side porch door and threshold. They did an excellent job cutting in the edges ... no easy task considering the bright brick red and black that I chose. Baldo took care to watch the weather so that the paint was applied in optimum conditions. They also gently power washed my 112-year-old home leaving it looking wonderfully refreshed. I highly recommend Ambrocio's Painting and would hire them again."

"I had a great experience. My new deck needed to be stained. Nixon and his team diligently prepped the deck by sanding and using reinforced screws in areas that required. The deck came out beautifully and my family is thrilled with the result. I would highly recommend and plan on using them again in the future for other projects like power washing and sealing my driveway. They offer so many services and it is great to find a reliable business that can satisfy so many different home project needs."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Fairfield, CT

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.
