"Highly recommend Affordable Weaver Painting. I contacted 5 companies to have some painting done in 4 rooms, 2 small hallways, and a small stairway. I knew what colors and brand of paint we wanted. I received 5 estimates. Affordable Weaver’s price was in the middle range so their price was fair. The estimate was also the final cost. Job completed in 2 days. Three employees showed up on time both days and other than an hour lunch break each day I did not see them stop working the entire time. They repaired some minor flaws in the walls, were efficient, neat, and polite. Finished result looks great."

"Responsive, thorough, and conscientious about their work. We wanted to transform a small, unused room in our basement into a wine storage cellar. We appreciated their professionalism, and their regular communication throughout the project."

"I can't say enough praise about this company. They were fabulous. I stressed to the Manager Chris, how important communication was to me and he was wonderful keeping me informed about the entire project. Chris was very detailed in writing down on the invoice the exact work on wall repairs and painting that was to occur. He came to the site almost every day to ask if I had any guestions or concerns. The painters, Matt, Silas and John were professional, courteous, attentive and very hard working. Great job guys. I will let you know when the next painting/plaster repair job will be at this old house. thanks again!!!!!!"

"George called me back promptly & came the next morning &; gave me an estimate. The work was done the following day. His crew did a great job. They insulated the opening, plastered, painted & put on the baseboard. You cannot even tell the wall was repaired (there had been a wall AC unit removed)."

"I hired Kiefers’s Custom Painting to paint the entire exterior of my home including the shutters and the exterior of my shed. Mr Kiefer was very personable and extremely easy to work with. Communicating with Mr Kiefer was a breeze with timely answers to questions and scheduling. His handling of details and paint colors was friendly and knowledgeable putting my mind at ease. His friendly team arrived on time and met all the needs of the job professionally to the agreed deadline. Outstanding reasonable work! Will definitely hire again in the future."

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