"ADR Advanced Painting is our GO TO company for ALL of our painting and staining jobs on the farm. They have masterfully transformed our restored Dutch barn (circa 1790) into a "must see" barn in the Hudson Valley, and have done so many other projects here, both exterior and interior on our residential buildings. They are thorough, organized, clean, thoughtful, and efficient. We love working with them, and we don't hesitate to call them for big or small jobs. If you want it done right, call ADR. You won't be sorry."

"We used Anton and his team for remodeling our basement and garage after we had water damage. They put up replacement pieces of sheetrock which looked amazing. Absolutely no lines just perfectly level walls. Their workmanship was outstanding. The owner was on site a lot of the time and his team worked very neatly. The painting was simply outstanding. The room looks like brand new. Pricing was extremely fair especially for such quality, high end work. Anton and European Craftsman will be our only call the next time we need work done. Thank you Anton!"

"Prompt, professional, clean and non intrusive. Very efficient and focused. I was informed about goals and time lines each day. Chris was spot on with goals and time lines. Worked with â old worldâ values, no wasted time, bragging, or quick exits to view potential projects. I was an exclusive job. no juggling between jobs. Very neat with excellent skills. More then pleased with his skills, and work ethic. PS No loud music!"

"I have used Taurus Painting Services multiple times throughout my home’s many remodeling projects. This was a small project to paint walls and accent paint my foyer and stair risers leading to the second story. Steve communicates well and confirmed color choices and paint finishes before starting the project. He set eta’s and he and his small crew worked quietly and efficiently to complete the project as expected. All surfaces were prepped and furniture and flooring was either moved or protected. I highly recommend Taurus Painting Services for all your painting needs."

"I cannot recommend E&S Home Improvement highly enough!!! Edgar & his team were true professionals - from the consultation through the completion of the project, Edgar was communicative, patient with discussing options, and very thorough with the work. His team was friendly, respectful of the space & meticulous. They were always on-time & came when they said they would, removed their shoes in the house and even washed the windows at the end of the job. We hired E&S to change the color of our house from brown to dark gray with black trim. Edgar had videos of similar houses he’d painted to show us examples, and provided great recommendations. We are thrilled with how the house looks! E&S also designs and installs custom bathrooms with beautiful tile work, so we hope to hire them for that (& anything else!) in the future."

"Scheduling the work was good. The job was done very well, with attention to detail and cleanup. Completed the multi-day work with steady progress. Key repair work needed before painting was also very well done. Overall, I would not hesitate to hire this company for our next project."

"Fantastic experience from start to finish! Jerry was knowledgeable, hardworking, efficient, and delivered excellent quality. He came in to fix a painting project that had already been started, which wasn’t the easiest situation, and did an amazing job turning it around. His attention to detail and pride in his work really showed. It’s not easy finding someone who works quickly without sacrificing quality. I would absolutely recommend Jerry and wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again!"

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