Local NJ Cabinet Painters

AFTER — light and warm with pop of blue harmony

AFTER - contemporary sophistication

 If small spaces could talk, they might just ask for light and bright colors every time. Removing black counters and installing white ones is an instant gratification kind of project. The white surfaces reflect light and add a contemporary brand of sophistication. This forward-thinking client understood that new cabinet paint would raise the bar on this kitchen for style and glamour.

The Hale Navy color from Benjamin Moore’s Historic Colors Collection is a deeply saturated shade of blue in a satin finish that hearkens to the sea. It also delivers on warmth, harmony and loyalty. Cabinet resurfacing is one of the best, most economical ways to spruce up any kitchen, and we excel with copious experience and an incredible team of professional painters. New brushed nickel hardware in a more streamlined, modern shape adds to the glam factor. The very cool industrial pendants lights look a little more relevant in this newly rejuvenated heart of the home.

Bronx Kitchen Painting Contractors

Updating a kitchen ranges from the price of a new car, albeit a small model, to simple dollar store décor items. One of the large surface areas and major focal points in this proverbial heart of the home is the cabinetry. This couple in Riverdale craved a new look, but already loved their high quality cabinets. Quality is a hallmark of this Bronx neighborhood, with large estates overlooking the Hudson River. Nice single family homes and co-op buildings lend a diversified, affordable section of the borough. Tree-lined streets offer a pastoral feel of being out of the city, while still in the city.

 Something as simple as painting cabinets for these folks added new energy and a more sophisticated appearance to the kitchen. Covering a dusty rose red with a fresh warm white takes special care to prepare the surface for maximum adherence and smooth covering. The molding and detail in the cabinet piece got our attention. It takes professional painters every time to assure all the grooves and seams are painted perfectly, full coverage without any excess or drippings. The sharp white upper cabinets and black countertop, anchored with lower rich wood cabinets, provide an affordable, contemporary refreshment to this kitchen.

2-Tone Cabinet Painting in Manhattan

The kitchen, that proverbial heart of the home, has evolved in recent months in many a home to the proverbial heart of work space. Manhattan residences are not synonymous with McMansions or sprawling spaces where a home office can be quickly carved in an under-utilized room. Here, things are organized for maximum efficiency in every square foot; there simply are no under-utilized rooms. So, the new work-at-home model – whether temporary or permanent - must be adapted to what’s available. Here it was one outdated kitchen.

The client wanted to refresh her kitchen/home office combo, so after beautiful new counters and a modern horizontal-pattern backsplash were installed, we breezed in to paint the cabinets and install new hardware. The upper cupboards have been smoothly coated with the Sherwin-Williams satin paint named Pure White. The lower ones are Tricorn Black, also in satin, also a Sherwin-Williams product. The hardware is an understated elegant brushed nickel in simple square knobs and horizontal draw pulls. We suspect this lady can work better, smarter and more efficiently for having this stylish, sleek, new update at the end of her 14-foot [give or take] commute to work.

Compass Concierge Painting Contractor NY

The power of a first impression can make or break a property sale on first look. With home buyers shopping online initially these days, home sellers are wise to set the stage for a wow factor from that proverbial first impression. And this almost always involves paint. Fresh coats of paint are simply the least expensive bang for your buck in presenting a lovely interior, and here in Chelsea, a stunning kitchen as well. The Chelsea section of Manhattan hugs the Hudson River and offers trendy night spots, chic shops and abundant art galleries.

Dark wood cabinets plunged this kitchen into a dull and dingy space which didn’t seem to fit into the neighborhood or the home. Our Paintworks team rolled in not only to paint the entire apartment, but also to resurface these cabinets for a smooth, sophisticated rendition of one very cool, contemporary kitchen. We moved cabinet doors to our uniquely-designed paint studio, controlled for temperature and dust and outfitted with brilliant lighting. Once completely smooth and dry, we carefully returned and installed them. The owner putting this up for sale understands that fresh paint can close a sale, often at asking price or perhaps higher. New owners are sure to enjoy the timeless white kitchen for decades, as white continues to top the annual kitchen color popularity survey by the National Kitchen & Bath Association (nkba.org).  

Chappaqua Kitchen After

Chappaqua Kitchen Before

Westchester County Backsplash Contractor

The little hamlet of Chappaqua covers less than half a square mile and is embedded in the town of New Castle on the east bank of the Hudson River. We don’t know if George Washington ever slept here, but Horace Greeley lived here and one creative, local couple recently called us to renovate their kitchen. With a baby delivery on the horizon, the schedule was tight and the work was intense. Our first tasks were demolishing and hauling out the countertops, installing a new backsplash and prepping for a complete cabinet resurfacing.

Handling cupboard doors, hardware and drawer fronts in this substantial kitchen, including its island, is a labor-intensive undertaking. Our crew protects floors and anything else adjacent and takes seriously all the steps to prep and resurface kitchen cabinetry for a smooth luster and clean finish. Taking this kitchen from outdated yesteryear to new world luxury will mightily impress this new baby. Well, baby might not notice right away, but we think the parents will meet their new challenges with aplomb, grace and confidence for having such a stunning kitchen in which to warm the baby’s bottles.
