"Mike was always pleasant, prompt and professional. His painters, Niko and Willie arrived two days after the quote and completed the project within two days, half the time predicted by others. My property was protected. Paintings were removed and replaced. Mike responded almost immediately to any phone call or text. I am extremely pleased with this company."

"Manny and his team did a fantastic job on staining my deck! Got the old paint off with great detail then stained it for a great finish. When I noticed something that was concerning, he redid the section to make sure I was pleased, no questions asked. He was punctual, kind and fast! Highly recommended and will be using him for other projects. Great experience all around!"

"4 Rooms painted including wallpaper removal, high entryway/hallways and moldings . We were very happy with the quality of work, the painters were professional and courteous. The quote process was easy and quick. I also appreciated how they went over everything with me on each day prior to each room starting. The final outcome of the project was way above expectations."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Plainview, 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.
