"My 89 year old dad hired John and his sons to paint his house in La Vernia and they did a great job. John met me out their so that we could discuss what needed to be done and he made a few suggestions on how to save my dad some money. He started the project when he said he would and showed up every day until he finished. He even met me out there the following day, to do a walk around to make sure I was also happy with the work. I never felt like John or his sons were going to take advantage of my dad. Thanks John. The next time I get my house painted I will contact John Normile."

"When you hire someone you’re stuck in the spot of do you hire for cheap or do you hire for quality. Nick was quality and from the other quotes I received his prices were fair. At the time he came out and gave me a quote I think there was one person who quotes me lower, but I went with Nick because he took his time to go over options with me, he was easy to talk To and you could tell the passion he has for his work. Nick provided me with a color booklet thing which I swear had over 7,000 options but it was very helpful and beneficial to pick our colors by having them all with you. Nick was able to start within two days of the quote. Him and his team worked quickly, three and a half days for the wall, ceilings and trim of a apprx 1,700 sq ft home. With materials and labor it was about 4,600 (with every penny) Every day I came back to the house I loved how Nick and his team respected my house by cleaning up after themselves and not leaving a mess. They took all of my window rods and closest racks down and placed them back without being able to tell they were even removed in the first place. There’s so stray paint anywhere, I’ve had houses painted where there’s paint left on tops of cabinets, a little on baseboards, so forth and so on, not a issue with Nick and his team. I was just moving into the house and had a busy work schedule so I left my spare key with Nick and was able to feel comfortable by the process. I would recommend Nick to anyone and I already plan on hiring him for other paint projects. Thank you Nick."

Customers say: Super punctual

"I needed all of my first floor ceilings painted due to a repipe we had done. Unified painting showed up on time and was able to complete the project quickly. He was able to match the ceiling paint perfectly and did a great job on restoring our ceilings back to original. His pricing was fair gor the amount of work needed and was friendly throughout the entire process."

"Excellent!! Brad Matejek and Carnival Painting were superb!! Highly recommended. They were one of five contractors I contacted for bids for the work. His bid included all the elements I wanted and was among the lowest cost bids. I selected the brand of paint and his guys got to work, painting all the exterior trim, vertical siding above rock walls, door and window lentals, and front and back porches with columns and railings. They replaced an exterior door that had a water damaged frame and sill, and also painted a small storage building. After a series of weather-related delays (September and October wettest on record in San Antonio area), his crew got to work and completed the work in less than four days. It included power washing to remove mold (the crew also washed the rock exterior, the sidewalk and the outbuilding). They were very professional, cleaning up as they went and making sure there was no paint drops. I was in contact with Brad frequently but felt very confident in his on-site crew. They were courteous, addressed my questions and concerns, and got the work done in a very professional manner. I'd hire Carnival again - in fact, I've already referred a friend to them for his painting needs."

"Andy, Mike, Albert and Rinaldo did a great job for us on several projects including gutter realignment, door repair and painting, tree and bush trimming (with lots of good advice on pest control, fertilizing, etc.), as well as a couple small indoor repairs. We have had them in our home in the past doing kitchen cabinet hardware installation and kitchen drawer slide replacement and realignment, and we will have them back as needed."

"I had Chris paint my downstairs which consists of the living room, dining room, kitchen and stairs. He was very friendly and very professional. He got it done in a couple of hours, and it came out fantastic. I will definitely be hiring him again and we paint our upstairs bedrooms. Highly recommend."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Universal City, TX

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.
