"I’ve used Melissa’s services over and over, and I’ve never been disappointed. The latest project was redoing and painting my staircase to prepare for carpeting. Amazing, prompt, friendly, well priced. I’d never call another painter."

"Oscar was professional, trust worthy and did a great job painting the interior of my home which included repairing the ceiling and walls, painting them and our trims. He was experienced and is perfectionist with his work. My house looks fresh and new. I would hire him for another painting project and recommend him to others."

"Everything went very smooth and efficient. Our project manager Brian came on the first day and did an estimate for us, The project started and we met Omar, lead for the painting, with a small team and discussed what the process would be. First day was power-washing and caulking and filling imperfections in the trim and siding. Same day they started painting. The majority of the painting was done on day two. The third day was a second coat and finishing touches. Omar's team was very friendly, hard-working and very tidy when packing up for the day. The result was stunning and beyond my expectation. I would definitely use them again."

"Chuck is prompt, polite and tidy. He asked questions to make sure he understood the project. He did a great job painting and reglazing old french doors. He also framed, sheetrocked, and painted an old room. Including boxing wires and creating a ceiling. Looks amazing."

"Ours is a small condo association of 5 houses. We called about 4 painting companies to look at our decks and give us a quote on Deck painting/staining. What is good about Rick's painting service and especially Rick is that he will come over at a time convenient to us unlike other companies who mostly look at their own convenience. Even though it was drizzling Rick showed up, waited for the rain to stop, he looked at the decks gave us some good suggestion and gave us a few pointers to think about. His quote was within our budget so we assigned him the project. Rick is very professional in his approach before he started the project he spoke to all unit owners and explained them how exactly he will stain/paint the deck. His team is also very professional they made sure garden beds near the deck is covered before they started the work, they made sure our lawn is not damaged by the stain/paint and chemicals. All the 5 unit owners are very happy with Ricks work. Another thing which i should mention is that he is very accommodating, our association due to this COVID scenario could not release his payment on time but Rick did not make a fuss about it he finished his job on time. I would recommend him to my friends and family."

"Flowers Garden Services did a fine job cleaning our gutters. Marisol and Oscar, the owners, showed up right away, gave us a fair quote, and returned in two days to do the job. I will use them again for gutter cleaning and other household services they perform."

"Ryan came on time and quickly determined how the job should be done. He left the job area clean. I asked for an estimate for painting a wall. He was knowledgeable about the paint to use and gave me a reasonable quote"

"Rob completely renovated a basement into a beautiful, modern in-law living space complete with kitchen, bath, bedroom and living room. He coordinated the other contractors and oversaw the entire job. Rob is professional, fair, and does great work. He had a lot of creative ideas about making the space work, and if knowledgeable about building codes & regulations. Would hire him again without question. "

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