Manhattan Commercial Painter 

Of all the perks and bennies a company may offer its staff, a neat, clean, freshly painted, bright work space practically tops the charts. Study after study reveals that employees enjoy enhanced concentration and productivity in comfortable work quarters. The company which contacted us was moving its offices to another address and wanted it to be really nice for the move-in. The timing was short. The need was now. The job was big - like eight conference rooms plus office space.

It was a tight squeeze on the clock, but we pulled together the team, and they pulled together the gear, supplies, equipment, paints, ladders, brushes, rollers, drop cloths and more. In reality, we fit right in as the Flatiron District is a commercial version of life in the fast lane. Anchored by Union Square and known for its food, art, drink and the original Shake Shack, Flatiron does not slow down much even on weekends. It emits an energetic vibe and a zest for work life and home life among its high rises, parks and diversified activities and performances.

IdeaPaint Walls

Leave it to a clever college freshman to invent IdeaPaint. In an entrepreneur group at Babson College, John Goscha tired of covering a wall with white paper, writing ideas all over it and having to remove it and put up new paper for more brainstorming. Necessity is the mother of invention, after all, and he deemed that they needed an easier way to manage the wall. Enter IdeaPaint, a premium dry erase paint in versions for residences, schools and commercial entities. Applying this novel product takes careful preparation and experience in properly sanding and priming before painting.

The office staff in one DUMBO business wanted to refresh their conference room walls with IdeaPaint so anyone with a flash of brilliance could share their idea on the wall. Everyone could see it and some major and minor brainstorming could ensue. Someone else could add thoughts and theories, flow charts, do some number crunching, draw happy faces and sketch out formulas for world peace. As the ideapaint.com website states: [IdeaPaint] transforms passive spaces into active environments. We were tempted to test it with a big “THANK YOU FOR HIRING PAINTWORKS”, but we refrained and left behind a very cool white wall for brainstorm sessions with their creative staff and meeting participants.

Nice, newly painted work space with clean ceiling

Queens Commercial Office Painter

Your normal field of vision is in the neighborhood of 170 degrees. More than half of that is peripheral vision. So while you may be focused on one thing ahead or slightly off to the right or left, your brain is processing lots of information from peripheral vision. If you are working in an office, this could mean you notice not only the walls, but overhead. And if the ceiling looks like what we recently encountered, you could spend more time wondering if a deteriorating acoustic tile or some unwanted leaking liquid might land in your hair than getting your work done.

We painted Gray Owl on the walls in this industrial office, then matched the window trim and baseboard for a cool contrast. The ceiling needed some serious help, so once assured the leaks were no longer active, we replaced acoustic tiles and sprayed the ceiling. Now, everyone here at Hugh O’Kane Electric Company is laser-focused on work, and their peripheral vision delivers only a clean, inviting, freshly painted office space.

Start-up Venture Needs Fresh Start

Any start-up venture is exciting, challenging, frustrating, demanding and stimulating all at once. Budding or seasoned entrepreneurs need a nice, bright, freshly painted space to plan, work and brainstorm. Being an entrepreneurial business ourselves, Paintworks & Decorating knows well that the damaged, dingy, smudged interior we encountered very much needed a lift before they arrived. We set about plastering holes and repairing damaged places, then professionally applied fresh coats of white paint all in one day for the large office. We have all the right licenses and insurance in place to paint any office in Manhattan, and this new company begins defining and realizing its goals in a clean, calm office space.

NYC Acoustic Ceiling Tile Painter

Moving in any capacity can be a daunting task. This company was making a major move into a new office in Long Island City and was looking to refresh it before finishing their move. Using high traffic paint we painted all walls and hallways, using the trim as a nice accent. The trim matches one of the company’s logo colors further deepening their branding. One of the dingiest looking parts of the new office was the acoustic ceiling tiles. It was clear that this office hadn’t been painted in about 20 years. The pictures below show the before and after of the acoustic tiles. We sprayed the acoustic ceiling tiles with flat ceiling white to make them look new again. Painting acoustic ceiling tiles is a quick and affordable way to make a large ceiling look new again. We had a great experience painting this Long Island City office and love commercial painting projects where we get to help local businesses that are just like us.
