"Rob painted the hallway of our 4 storey condo, and also revarnished the much weathered front door. The entire project went so smoothly! Rob worked quickly, and neatly. The hallway looks fantastic. The entire job went so well, I asked him to paint our living room next!"

"I had a small problem with one area of my ceiling that Franklin Painting had done in the past. I had difficulty getting in touch with them as they had changed their phone number and email address. When I did have contact with them Hernan came out and saw the problem. He made an appointment with me and his brother Hugo came out to repair the problem. Was done efficiently, neatly and professionally. Thank you. I would use them again as they do excellent work and live up to their guarantee."

"I could not be happier with EJ painting, they did a fantastic job on our bathroom ceiling, super professional, and straight-forward scheduling. I'm now thinking of more projects to work with them on in the future."

"I can't recommend Mauricio and Arzeyuth painting highly enough. He is the most professional, honest and competent contractor with whom I've ever had the pleasure to work. We discussed every step of my projects including problems that came up unexpectedly. We sat down and planned things together according to my budget. Mauricio even had some expert advice on what to prioritize in my house and even color schemes I hadn't thought of. Their expertise is diverse and comprehensive as they helped me with plaster work, wall repairs, new ceilings, painting, electric work, and some construction. He and his crew were timely and reliable and completely respectful of my family and home. All of the many projects came out beautifully and flawlessly."

"Marlene and her crew were very professional, neat, experienced and efficient, in all components of the project. The exterior cedar shakes needed an extensive amount of scraping and preparation before painting and this job was completed meticulously before the house was primed and painted. The deck was power washed and sealed in preparation for the winter and the stone wall was power washed as well. Each day, when working on the interior painting and wall paper removal, the work area was closed off so that dust would not spread throughout the house and was left neat and clean at the end of the day. The ceilings, walls and woodwork were painted and an old window was replaced as well. The entire house looked its best in preparation for putting it on the market. In addition, the price was extremely fair for the amount of work that was done. I would recommend Go Green for anyone who is looking to complete a home improvement project or wants to get their home ready for the all important Open House."

"Now I know why their company name is what it is. The paint job and customer service was absolutely superb. Rafael was fantastic. Very knowledgeable with great communication and couldn't be more friendly. He kept me informed during the whole process. Robert's quality of work was outstanding. Very meticulous and cleaned everything up when completed. If I could give 10 stars for referral I would. Great work and their pricing was by far the best after receiving multiple quotes. I will be doing more projects with them and I highly recommend anyone looking for paint service to contact them to see for themselves. Thanks again Rafael and Robert!!"

"Mark came quickly and gave us an estimate . They were ready to start within a few days and came when they said they would. They removed the wallpaper and had to do a significant amount of patching and sanding. They did the job effectively and efficiently. They left our home cleaned up and ready to paint. The walls were in excellent condition. We would hire them again."

"I had a great experience with Ayman from Skyline Painting. He showed up to quote my project within 30 minutes of speaking with him and was able to start the job the very next day. His pricing was competitive and the negotiation process was fair and straightforward. Ayman is extremely kind and demonstrated true integrity throughout the entire job. He picked up the paint for me, took care of a few extra items at no additional charge and even helped me to clear snow from my walkway -- above and beyond what I expected. I am very happy with the results and would absolutely use Skyline Painting again for future projects."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Livingston, NJ

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.
