Meet NS Painting & Contracting: Your Trusted Painting Contractor in Albany, NY
When you’re searching for a reliable painting contractor in Albany NY, you want more than someone with a roller and a ladder. You want a team that shows up on time, treats your home like their own, uses quality materials, and stands behind their work for years to come. That’s exactly the standard we built NS Painting & Contracting on.
Based at 418 Broadway, Suite R, Albany, NY 12207, we serve homeowners and business owners across the entire Capital Region — from historic brownstones in downtown Albany to new construction in Saratoga, kitchen remodels in Schenectady, and exterior repaints in Rensselaer. Whether your project is one accent wall or an entire commercial property, we approach every job with the same craftsmanship-first mindset.
In this post, we’ll walk you through who we are, what we do, the neighborhoods we serve, and why Capital Region homeowners keep recommending us to their friends and neighbors. If you’d rather skip the reading and talk to a real person, just call us at 518-246-5513 or send a quick message through our contact page (https://nspaintingco.com/contact-interior-painting-contractors/) — we’re available seven days a week, 7 AM to 9 PM.
Who We Are: A Local Albany NY Painting Company With Capital Region Roots
NS Painting & Contracting is a locally owned and operated painting and contracting company headquartered in downtown Albany. We aren’t a franchise, we aren’t a national chain, and we don’t subcontract your project out to whoever happens to be available that week. The team that estimates your project is the team that prepares your surfaces, applies your paint, and walks the final inspection with you.
That local ownership matters more than people realize. We live where you live. We deal with the same Upstate New York winters, the same humid summers, and the same freeze-thaw cycles that wreak havoc on exterior paint, caulk lines, and stained decks. When we recommend a paint, a primer, or a prep approach, it’s based on what actually holds up in our climate — not what works in Florida or Arizona.
Our two principals, Kevin and Sheldon, are hands-on every step of the way. You can reach Kevin directly at kevin@nspaintingco.com or Sheldon at sheldon@nspaintingco.com. That kind of access to the people running the company is something the big franchises simply can’t offer.
Our Story: Built on Word of Mouth, Quality, and Repeat Customers
We didn’t grow NS Painting & Contracting with flashy advertising or aggressive sales tactics. We grew it the slow, honest way — one satisfied homeowner at a time. A clean, beautiful interior paint job in a neighborhood like Center Square or Pine Hills tends to get noticed. Neighbors ask. Friends ask. Realtors ask. And the next thing you know, we’re booking three more projects on the same block.
That word-of-mouth foundation shapes everything about how we operate. We can’t afford to cut corners — not because we’d get caught, but because the very next homeowner on the street is going to see our work for years. That accountability keeps us honest, keeps our prep work thorough, and keeps our finish quality high.
If you’d like to see examples of our recent work, our portfolio (https://nspaintingco.com/portfolio-interior-painting-contractors-projects/) showcases real projects across Albany, Schenectady, Saratoga, and Rensselaer counties — including before-and-after kitchen cabinet transformations, full-home interior repaints, exterior siding refreshes, and more.
Services We Offer: Full-Service Painting and Contracting Under One Roof
One of the things that sets NS Painting & Contracting apart is the breadth of services we offer. Most homeowners don’t just need one thing painted — they need drywall patched before painting, popcorn ceilings removed, cabinets refreshed, and maybe pressure washing on the deck before staining. Instead of coordinating four different contractors, you can hand the entire scope to one team that already knows your home.
Interior Painting
From single rooms to whole-home repaints, our interior painting (https://nspaintingco.com/interior-painting/) services cover every surface inside your home — walls, ceilings, trim, doors, baseboards, accent walls, and more. We’re meticulous about prep, drop cloths, edge cutting, and cleanup.
Exterior Painting
Capital Region weather is brutal on paint. Our exterior painting (https://nspaintingco.com/exterior-painting/) process includes pressure washing, scraping, priming, caulk replacement, and high-grade exterior coatings designed to handle Albany’s snow, sleet, and humidity.
Drywall and Taping
Whether it’s repairing a hole, finishing a basement, or doing full Level 4 or Level 5 finishes for new construction, our drywall and taping (https://nspaintingco.com/drywall-and-taping/) crew delivers smooth, paint-ready walls every time.
Kitchen Cabinet Painting
A full kitchen remodel can run $30,000 or more. Refinishing your existing cabinets through our kitchen cabinets (https://nspaintingco.com/kitchen-cabinets/) service delivers a near-new look at a fraction of the cost — typically with a sprayed factory-grade finish that’s leagues above brush-and-roll.
Specialty Services
We also handle metal roof painting (https://nspaintingco.com/metal-roof-painting/), popcorn ceiling removal (https://nspaintingco.com/popcorn-ceiling-removal/), pressure washing (https://nspaintingco.com/pressure-washing/), wood and deck staining (https://nspaintingco.com/staining/), and wallpaper removal (https://nspaintingco.com/wallpaper-removal/) — all the trickier jobs most general painters won’t touch.

While our office is in downtown Albany, we serve homeowners throughout the four-county Capital Region. Our complete service area map is available on our area-served page (https://nspaintingco.com/area-served-interior-painting-near-me/), but here’s a quick overview:

Rensselaer County — Troy, East Greenbush, Rensselaer, Brunswick, and North Greenbush. Troy’s historic architecture demands skilled hands, and our Rensselaer interior painting (https://nspaintingco.com/rensselaer-interior-painting/) and Rensselaer exterior painting (https://nspaintingco.com/rensselaer-exterior-painting/) teams are up for it.
Why Homeowners Choose NS Painting & Contracting
