"Alen & Jason were great to work with. They painted our dining room, kitchen and one bedroom. They purchased all the materials, arrived promptly and worked quickly and neatly. They were a pleasure to do work with! We will use them for any future painting projects."

"Excellent, John and his team not only did a great job, he also made sure to totally prep so fixtures, cabinets, etc were completely covered before painting began. He and his crew are total professionals and we were very pleased from the first phone call, the initial meeting, the estimate process through the actual paint job. I can only say good things about our experience! And as I said, we not only used him for 1 house, but 2 houses....will use him again for any other jobs that we may have... I will also highly recommend Fridholm Painting to anyone who wishes to have a painting project done well and professionally. Also, John kept to the schedule times and that made our lives so much easier, while juggling packing, moving, multiple remodeling projects, etc. If you want your paint job done correctly the first time, then Fridholm Painting is the one to hire."

"We are so pleased with the quality painting work performed by the team at G & G Pro Painting. We appreciate the detailed work G & G Pro Painting did. They put significant time into the preparation of the walls, ceiling and trim. Now our walls and ceiling surfaces look brand-new! Brian and his crew work well together and work efficiently. The team is polite. They took care to cover our furniture and floors. It was a pleasure to have them working in our home."

"We hired Dede to paint the interior of the house we'd just bought, and he did a great job on a tight timeline. Gaps and stains were caulked and covered, weird scalloped trim removed, and the entire house looks great. They left the house cleaner than they found it. A little expensive, but he worked with us to get closer to our budget, and there was no one else who could get the house done within our schedule. Would definitely rehire and recommend!"

"I hired Color Concepts to repaint the exterior of my cedar sided home. I have mixed feelings about Color Concepts LLC. When I called to schedule an estimate, Joe was polite and responsive. The day of the estimate, Joe did not show up. I called, he apologized and had forgotten, and then came over. At the start of the project Joe worked for a day and then was not seen for three. He did not answer calls, texts, or messages through that period. Joe then showed up to complete the job and apologized stating he had been caught up on another project. It took Joe about 5-6 additional days to complete the job as he had estimated. He cleaned up well and overall the job looked ok. Joe did not paint part of my chimney as he was uncomfortable getting on the second story roof (brand-new roof replaced one month prior and this was not mentioned during estimate). He took 100 dollars off the price although this will not cover having someone else come finish the job. I was also informed of this at the time of his departure. There was no formal walk around prior to Joe leaving. Many areas of the house needed touch up work, which I spent several days completing. Undersides to siding were missed, the door frames had only received one coat, and a few small areas towards wall bottoms were missed. I am not confident my house received two full coats as well, more that the second coat was touch ups and *hitting light areas*. Joe was the cheapest estimate and able to complete the job rapidly, but in my opinion this was not a reasonable trade off. Though Joe was a nice individual, I can not say that I would use him again or recommend him to my friends and family."

FAQs for small projects painting or staining projects in Schenectady, NY

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.
