Paint Stores in Wallingford, CT

“I am devoted to this place because of their superior products and expertise. Yes it's more expensive than the box stores. I don't mind paying a little more and going just a little further up the road. Some of my painting projects can get complicated and I need experts.”

“This morning I went to John Boyle Decorating Center (Benjamin Moore) in Wallingford. I planned to run in, get my paint and run out. Well 1 1/2 hours later I left. I spent that time talking with Aaron about painting my cabinets. We discussed color saturation and the way it absorbs and reflects light. I showed him pictures of my cabinets and discussed the prep work I had done so far and how painful and time consuming this has been. I am fairly skilled at painting but I have never done cabinets before and I have this picture in my mind of how I want them to look. I have researched this over and over. He advised me on product and the differences in primer types and application. He helped me choose just the right shade of wall paint. He had re-done his own cabinets and I got the benefits of his experience. We also ended up talking about my kids, his girlfriend, a project he is working on right now. The owner jumped in too when he wasn't waiting on other customers. I did not feel rushed or bad that I was taking up too much time. The owner carried my box of paint to my car for me and I didn't even ask him too! The bottom line in all of this is we need to support small business. You can see Home Depot and Lowes from the parking lot but I can guarantee that you will never get the level of service I got. I left with more than product. I felt relaxed, informed and appreciated. If you have the need for paint, stop in but don't plan to run in and out if you don't have to.”

“Very helpful safe, and they really know their stuff so don't be afraid to ask for their help and advice (I'm really happy with the color combinations I picked thanks to Sara's help)”
