"My first time hiring an Angi Pro and I hit the jackpot. Brian Kennedy of Kennedy Painting exceeded my expectations over and over again. From the start of our correspondence in early August (project delayed due to personal issues on my end) to our conversation in October when Brian asked 'how about Monday at 7:00 AM?" I was introduced to the team that worked so efficiently, moving furniture (living room/dining room and two hallways) cleaned up at the end of each day. Wallpaper stripped, walls repaired, and painted. My project took five complete days with minimal interruptions in my daily life. Very, very professional, efficient organization. "

"It was a relatively small job - they were here a day and a half and feel that we paid WAY too much for the work. He quoted me for some work that I didn't need/want but still billed us for it. The two workers here did not speak any English so it was difficult to know if they understood what the actual task was. At the end of the two days it all got painted, some windows were painted shut which was no good."

"This is the third time I hired Erivan to paint. Exterior or interior—he is exceptional. Working with just one other person, Erivan always arrives on time, cleans up the space at the end of the day, and does outstanding work. Communication is easy, and I am never disappointed with the results. Highly recommend."

"Fernando and his team did an awesome job from start to finish. He was communicative throughout the project and really went above and beyond! I was so impressed I already referred him to my brother to have his house painted. Professional work by a really dedicated team. Thanks!"

"The project did not go as well as I would have liked, and had I not been home, it would have been done completely wrong. First they removed the old railings and wanted to install the new white railings to the deck before sanding the floor, I had to stop that. The sanding was done by hand and not with a floor sander so it didn't remove all the old paint. Then I chose a color from the chart they supplied and after four attempts to get the color right I had to settle for as color that was closer to the color on my house. Then she the put the railings on they tried to cut corners and not buy a stair railing but use a standard railing which they attempted for a full day to make fit. At that point I called the sales person and told him that was not happy. They did put the correct railing on at the end. Lastly I had a gate put on the stairway and the put it on so it swings into the deck instead of to the railing swinging to the outside. Had I not come home in time, they would have left it that way. To repair it they had to buy additional posts and plugs to repair the hols in the gate. Again I settled fo this. The price was very high, but I thought I was going to get a better end product which I don't think I did. The deck still needs another quote because it was not good coverage with the first coat of the color I had to settle on."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Waltham, MA

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.
