"GS Painting is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST contractor I have ever hired in all my 50 years of home ownership! The company owner, Garry, not only demonstrated the highest standards of punctuality, knowledge, and skill, but he also exhibited a strong commitment to excellence in his meticulous attention to detail and his sheer talent in both carpentry and painting. He was extremely pleasant to work with, and he kept me informed about the work and his progress throughout every phase of the project. At 80 years of age I especially appreciated his respect for my precautions about the Covid pandemic, patiently honoring my request for communication through emails and texts in order to avoid face-to-face contact (when that would have obviously been an easier path for him to take). He went far beyond what most workers might have done in facing a 25-year-old home with multiple examples of untended wear-and-tear, each of which he diligently studied, identified the root cause, formulated a workable plan for correcting it, and accomplished a finished product that totally returned my home to its true market value. I simply cannot say enough positive comments about Garry’s workmanship to capture how pleased I am with the final result of his work. By all means I would not only hire him again but I would deliberately seek him out to do any job needed — my trust level in his skill is that great. Garry is a true craftsman who takes tremendous pride in his work. I am grateful to Angie’s List for connecting me with this dedicated and talented contractor. He is a definite asset to your service!"

"We contacted HVR painting to get estimate on staining fence. Roodney and Aullins came out to see the job and give me an estimate. We agreed to contract they came and prepped the fence one day and stained it the next. They cleaned up did a wonderful job."

"Great! We were informed ahead of time of delays due to weather. Pearce, Gary and their team were so kind and were very thorough and clean. They did a wonderful job with all of the carpentry and the prep work for painting. Every day the job site was left spotlessly clean. Our house looks amazing! It looks brand new. I really appreciate their very thorough estimate and how well they communicated. I felt like we were informed every step of the way. I would highly recommend them."

"My parents LOVE the work done by this business and they were a pleasure to work with. My parents needed drywall repaired after a bathroom installation. Jesus also replaced tile and painted. They completed the work in less than a week and were extremely professional and courteous. We will definitely be using their services again. I would give them 10 stars if I could."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Gainesville, FL

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.
