"Megan and Tony did s great exterior painting job for me a few years ago so it was certain I would hire them again! This time they painted all exterior trim, shutters, front door, repairing wood as needed. From gentle power washing to start to careful clean up, they are great! Friendly, professional, reasonably priced, no surprise costs, completing job in timely manner. I am delighted with results! I have recommended Megan and Tony to friends who have been equally satisfied, and I will hire them for any of my future painting, in or out."

"Eric and his crew of two men were hired to do interior painting of Master Bedroom and Bath. He was polite and punctual as promised. I found Eric and his crew to be very professional. Eric and the crew did an excellent job painting. They did not drop paint on the carpeted or tiled areas. The work was neat and completed in a timely manner. The price for the project was reasonable. I would definitely recommend this company to family, friends and have Eric and the crew return for future projects."

"Veyta installed six pairs of new shutters, and painted all the trim on the front of my house. They came when promised, were very professional, and completed the job timely and with high quality. The also were extremely neat and cleaned up completely when finished.. They are master painters and didnâ t leave any drips, brush or roller marks,, or unevenly painted surfaces. Their price was competitive and fair. I will definitely hire them again."

"Sunlight Contracting did a great job on our interior paint project! Very quick completion time and an amazing final result. We had a lower quality, chalky paint on the walls and were concerned about coverage and finish when painting over; however, Sunlight Contracting did a wonderful job working with what we had. We’re so happy with the finished product and will definitely contact Sunlight Contracting for future painting needs!"

"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."

"New Era Pro Painting was a great service provider. They arrived on time and cleaned up each day. They did a comprehensive prep, paint, clean up, walk thru and gave additional recommendations for future projects. I will use them again and recommend them to others in the family."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Princeton, NJ

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.
