"I wanted to get my daughter’s bedroom painted. Manny was so polite and professional. He came to look at the job and gave a fair price and was super prompt with showing up. I thought he did a great job prepping the room. He got the job done the way we asked and we were super satisfied. I would use Manny again and I would recommend him to friend and family. "

"I am disappointed with the painting service I received. I was happy with the painter’s work in the beginning—the prep and the first part of the living room were done well, and the quality looked promising. Unfortunately, things went downhill after that. By the time the painter got to the remaining areas, the work felt rushed and noticeably lower in quality. The work was sloppy, with uneven lines, missing spots, and paint left on surfaces on floors. The painter did not complete the job as agreed, leaving some areas unfinished. On top of that, the painter did not work the hours that were promised. They frequently left early, and it was noticeably clear that the painter rushed to finish. The early effort showed potential, but the inconsistent pace and rushed finish left me unhappy with the final result. The work lacked attention to detail, with uneven coverage and areas that looked hastily done. Even after multiple reminders, they hesitated to do the job properly, showing frustration / irritation and never showed the level of care or effort needed to achieve a clean, professional result. The attention to detail just was not there, and it was frustrating having to repeatedly ask for basic corrections. I expected a higher standard of workmanship and accountability. After the painting job finished, the painter hesitated to move the furniture back to its original place, even though they had moved on beginning for the job. I was also asked for extra payment for this saying moving furniture is not part of painting job, which I had not expected. It left me feeling that the job was not managed with the professionalism or clarity I was hoping for. Honestly, I felt like I could have done the same job myself and saved the money. This experience left me feeling that workmanship and value just was not there. I had hoped for a more careful job, but unfortunately the quality was not there. I would not recommend this service based on my experience. Overall, the lack of professionalism and poor quality of work make it impossible for me to recommend this painter. I expected much better. Do not hire this painter."

" We originally wanted two water stained ceilings patched and painted and the living room re-painted. We met Mike who promptly met us after we requested an estimate. Having been in the financial industry for decades I've come across all kinds of sales people and I'm proud to say that Mike is not like any of them. Mike is friendly, genuine, professional and likeable. He is neither phony or pushy. He was pleasant and understanding of our needs. He told us what had to be done and gave us a reasonable estimate that never varied. His painters, Nino and Willie were assigned to our project. These two gentlemen were a pleasure to have in our home. We were extremely comfortable with them. Their work was truly professional and shamed the previous work done in our home. They arrived ahead of time and left the rooms clean and spotless. Their work was meticulous and showed off their skills. We were so impressed that we immediately hired them to repaint the stairwell and the bedrooms upstairs. "

"I just can’t say enough about Just Right carpentry and paint. Joe and his brother, Tom did an amazing job painting the inside and outside of our house. They were very fair with their prices. They showed up bright and early every day and worked a full day. I give them five stars all the way."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Garden City, 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.
