Daly's Paint & Decorating

I've purchased many gallons, pints and painting supplies at Daly's as I've worked on various painting projects around the house. The location on Stone Way in Wallingford is very convenient, but the paint is quite expensive. I had trouble with the green paints from Pratt & Lambert, but the other colors look great. Recently, I've been happy with the paints from their competitor a few blocks to the north on Stone Way, Rodda Paints. Rodda has a similar selection of paints and supplies with much better prices. more

Daly's Paint, in Wallingford or Bellevue, is a great place to get paint or stain. Their products are top quality, and it's not easy to find such knowledgeable service. They'll be able to help you custom match (even stain, which is no easy task) and adjust already mixed color if you need to. We've bought stain for a deck and a fence there, and both held up admirably. If you are looking for paint, you can purchase 1' square samples (made with actual paint, not printed with ink) to see how it will really look in your home. They also keep a record of everything you buy in their computer system, so if you need more you'll have access to the exact formula used the first time around. There are only 2 drawbacks: - Limited hours can make it difficult to get what you need to finish up a weekend project. - Their personalized service takes time, so you may end up waiting a while in line while others are helped. They do have a number system, so you can browse while you wait. more

My husband and I recently set out to paint the inside of our new home, and we were heading in the wrong direction with colors. With Robin's assistance, we were able to find some FABULOUS updated colors for our house, and we couldn't be happier. Loved the convenience and huge benefit of the extral large paint chips. And we found spending more to get the best paint made SUCH a difference in the outcome, but a relatively small difference in the overall price. It was all worth it, and our experience with Daly's was great. I only wish they had some Sunday hours, too! more
