"Sergio and team painted my entire inside of the home (4,300sf). The project included all trim, walls, ceilings, doors. Throughout the project, they were professional, friendly, and punctual to the estimated timetable. The final product was superb. Upon initial completion, they performed a thorough examination of the entire home looking for touch up spots to meet their perfectionist-like standards. I would highly recommend Sergio for any painting job you may have. I will definitely book again for future projects."

"I had a small job of painting a front door under a tight timeline. The team called me coordinated a visit to quote me accurately and completed the job the same day. Because of the cold weather there was an area of the door that need some another coat, the team came back out took additional measures to make sure the weather wouldn’t affect the job and it came out perfect. Very responsive and customer focused. Thank you"

"I called them to give me an estimate they set up a time to come out and were here right on time. I showed them what I needed done and they explained the process of how they were going to power washer the exterior siding first and then let it dry out for a day and come put finish on day after it dried. The day of paint they showed up on time to paint and they completed the project on time just like they promised and it turned out beautiful could not have asked for a better job if u are looking for a painter who shows up on time and does beautiful work and a great price look no further give these guys a call."

"DnB was good with a complicated job here of using 5 different paint colors and 2 different stain colors all in close quarters, along with three or four areas of drywall that were a mess from prior contractor. Also they met their timing commitment to the very day that they promised arrival (two months prior)."

"I needed my deck re-stained. The process was really easy. They came out and inspected the deck. We reviewed color options and found something that matched my requirements. They had had an opening later that week, but I had to push back the date due my own availability. The deck was finished after a couple of hours, everything was cleaned up, nothing left for me to do. Overall the work and experience was very professional and would recommend."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Harrisburg, PA

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.
