Brooklyn Office Painter

The average house in the U.S. contains approximately 2,200 square feet of living space, while a New York City apartment averages 550 square feet. Thus, 30,000 square feet may equal roughly 15 average 3-BR, 2-BA homes. It is also a whisker over 2/3s of an acre. Thus, one of our recent jobs – painting the office interior of a 30,000-square-foot advertising and marketing agency – was a very large project.

Staff is returning to the office soon, and management wanted everything to be clean and fresh, and new paint is always the way to go for an interior lift. Our team painted not only the walls, but also the doors and trim throughout this expansive office in the DUMBO section of Brooklyn. The accent wall in Charcoal Slate offers a touch of dignity, safety and functionality for which gray is revered. Clean, well-organized offices are paramount to work satisfaction and being able to focus on the clever, creative, corner of the brain in the competitive, strategic advertising and marketing arena - you know, crafting those slogans and jingles and blurbs that stick in your mind forever.

Meat shopping in style

That we eat with our eyes is a well-known cliché which highlights the value of presentation, whether it’s on the plate or in the case at the grocery store. We examine the marbling in ribeye steaks, meat stripes in bacon and fresh color and appearance of hamburger, chicken and pork chops. We may not look beyond this to the shelves and display cases which hold the meats, but surely we would notice peeling paint or rusty metal. And likely, we might then look somewhere else for carnivore vittles.

This meat market in Brooklyn is experienced not only in all things meat-related, but also in the value of sharp, clean, neat showcases for their products. We began the project by removing all the shelving and stripping off the old yellow-greenish failing paint. For superior bonding, most surfaces require a primer product which adheres to the material and prepares an excellent base on which to apply the final paint coat. Some of the work was done in a temporary pop-up paint tent we often use on a job site to contain dust and spray paint particles. Our white primer of choice did its job well, and we finished the shelf units with a glossy ebony black - the ideal, even elegant, background for meat display.

NYC Commercial Epoxy Painting

 Everywhere people go, they are mentally and emotionally impacted by their surroundings, and this includes car parking garages and bike parking spaces. It may be subliminal, of which the dictionary definition is: [of a stimulus or mental process] below the threshold of sensation or consciousness; perceived by or affecting someone's mind without their being aware of it.” Contracting for and maintaining clean, modern, attractive spaces for residents to park their vehicles are priorities of one property management company in the Williamsburg vicinity of Brooklyn.

 After cleaning, priming and painting the 4-wheel vehicle garage in contemporary black and white with wide, angled, white stripes, we went to work on the new 2-wheel parking room. The project started with cleaning everything with denatured alcohol, then priming with an oil-based primer for exceptional bonding. Industrial paint coats were professionally sprayed. Decorative lines matching the other garage were drawn and expertly painted. The crowning touch, which sounds like the ceiling, really was the floor, which our experienced team finished with epoxy floor paint with a super durable product. So much of our work is contingent on understanding the processes, the products and the professional application for a clean, long-lasting, attractive space, in this case for energetic pedal-pushers to rest their bicycles and themselves.

Brooklyn Plasterers

Electricians are brilliant in their grasp of wiring, switches, schematics and technical drawings, circuit breakers, loads and meter diagnostic tools. They must know local and state building code requirements along with the National Electric Code which dictates safe electric design, installation and inspection to protect the public from electrical hazards, which can be deadly. Overloaded electrical outlets are a common cause of electrical fires. The Fire Department of the City of New York has a 2-page “Plug Into Safety” document to guide residents on electrical home safety. You can review this at https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/fdny/downloads/pdf/fire-safety-education/10_electricity_home_safety_english.pdf.

 With all these skills and knowledge packed into their heads, electricians are not expected to restore spaces where they work. And we love following in their footsteps. Here we filled and spackled more than 20 holes. Once sanded and smooth again, we primed and painted the hall wall in this 90-year-old Brooklyn building. The residents will be pleased come summer that new wiring was installed to support the air conditioning system, and they are grateful now for the freshly repaired and painted hallway. Even with modernization like air conditioning, these historic buildings continue to evoke a grace and style of yesteryear.

Painting an Office Conference Room in Park Slope

A conference room can be a soothingly safe space for conversation, an energetic brainstorming territory or anything in between, so it needs to be neutral and refreshing. After moving and protecting the floor and furnishings in this one, we expertly applied Benjamin Moore's Chantilly Lace paint on the walls. It's a clean cool white as refined as the lace it is named for. It reflects light and produces a brightness in the room where lots of thinking, talking and analysis may occur. Contrasting with the wood ceiling and dark flooring, this comfortable white with blue undertones lends a warmth to the space that can keep the creative juices flowing and the mind's focus on issues at hand. At least, that's the plan for this great customer in the casual Park Slope area. We even worked on the weekend, so no one was disrupted during the business week.
