"Dave did an excellent job on the entire downstairs of our house and the stairway. He patched plaster walls, painted ceilings and doors, trim and walls. They showed up on time each day as scheduled and completed the project in a timely manner. We would definitely hire Dave again."

"Ray responded promptly to my call and provided an estimate for the service even though he seldom takes that small a job. He gave some advise and a convincing explanation on the type of paint he generally uses. He advised that he could complete the job and have the house livable in one day. He scheduled at my convenience and arrived promptly with two employees that morning. I remained outdoors or in a bedroom that was not being painted so was able to look in from time to time. They worked steadily and carefully and completed the project by mid-afternoon. They replaced the furniture and removed any debris from the worksite leaving the excess paint. Overall it was a very satisfactory experience with minimal disruption and most important a lovely new paint job."

"Our Hutton project manager was Justin. He and Gage did all the work. My husband and I are extremely impressed. The powder room is beautiful. The work included removing 1975 ceramic toilet paper holder and towel bar that was imbedded in the wall. Plastering not only these larger holes in the wall but also smoothing the rest of the wall that had always been wallpapered so never smoothed. Installing a new toilet, faucet, light, towel hook and toilet holder. Painting the walls and caulking. These people are wonderful to work with. They always showed up on time, are very polite, trustworthy and respectful, and cleanup completely. They are also very pleasant with which to work . We ran into a problem with the new Moen faucet we bought which had many online complaints about the same problem. Justin came back after the job was completed to try to adjust it but the problem was with the part. He researched options, tried to buy the needed upgraded part locally but it was not available, ordered it online and kept me updated on the delivery, and replaced the part which works wonderfully. He never charged me for the extra time that he had to invest even though the problem was with the faucet I bought. Amazing. I will definitely use this company again and will recommend them to my friends."

"Sean did a good job on my outside metal awnings and shutters. He cleaned them off before painting them and painted around my windows for a reasonable charge. I would recommend him for your painting projects and would have him paint for me again."

"Amazing group of repair professionals. I highly recommend Mr. Handyman Pittsburgh East. The deck on my house needed to be replaced. Rick, the Project Manager, and Todd, Chuck, Shawn and Jack, the service techs who worked on the deck, were excellent, very professional and neat, cleaning up every day. When I started talking with Rick about this project, I thought it wasn't going to possible for me to have everything taken care of in one undertaking. I must admit that cost was the major stumbling block. The deck is large and lumber/material costs took my breath away. But Rick worked with me, adjusting the materials and the design and making suggestions to help me make it happen! The deck was completed yesterday and I couldn't be happier. I now have a lovely place to sit and enjoy the day and my dog Spencer has a safe place to play outside. Thank you so much for all of your patience, kindness and, of course, excellent work!"

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