Big wow and round of applause for these walls!

Final paint coat drying

Flushing Plastering Contractors

It’s time for action when the living room walls are cracking, paint is peeling and the aesthetics of the space is simply no longer bearable. While the debris that piled up might not have measured in actual tons, it sure seemed like tons of peeling paint and plaster being removed from these pathetically-worn walls. Once free of splintered paint and plaster, we applied a professional, quick-drying, oil-based, bonding primer. This product assures adherence by the new plaster which then takes on new primer and the final paint coats.

Plastering walls may look easy, but it takes a steady hand and keen eye to apply a smooth coat with nary a ripple or bulge. One of our master plasterer/painters, Luis, is seen here deftly spreading the plaster compound to craft a new, flat, smooth, wall surface. It’s a nice room with a little arch detail in the doorway, and everyone is pleased as punch that it’s once again a comfortable, functional space.

In the beginning

Refreshing Home Interior with New Paint

 After half a decade in their home, this couple was ready for refreshing their interior with a lovely, neutral, gentle gray throughout living spaces and the kitchen area. Soft pewter evokes safety with touch of class and leaves the excitement level wide open for the decorative accents and textiles to make a splash. The fun part of bathrooms is being bold, and this Newburyport Blue HC-155 is part of the Historic Color Collection in Benjamin Moore’s paint line. Steeped in tradition, the color delivers a warm, elegant and confident tone in a small space.

 Living in Long Island City along the East River is as peaceful as it is energizing. The serenity of the riverfront park beckons moments of reflection, while the art scene and trendy eateries, performance venues and a vibrant night life create engaging diversions. The view of Manhattan is dazzling, but these residents might be just as content at home in their own revitalized interior with take-out from Beebe’s or The Inkan or Chairman Sun.

Historic Manhattan Building Painter

Among the reasons to love living in New York City, according to cubesmart.com, are Excitement, Energy, Landmarks, Diversity and the Neighborhoods, each with its own distinct personality and flavor. TriBeCa is just one of those famed neighborhoods, known for its cobblestone streets and old industrial buildings renovated into lofts. One family here had not painted their home’s interior for more than a decade.

 Longing for a fresh look which would lift their spirits and property value, they called on us to get the job done. These historic buildings sport gorgeous natural hardwood floors and wood trim, plus the homeowner’s furnishings, all of which we carefully covered and protected.  Most people know that TriBeCa stands for Triangle Below Canal [Street]. The shape of the place is really a quadrilateral, but that’s splitting hairs. It is a happy place to live, work and play, and this family is especially content in its freshly painted space with window trim framing the cityscape where they call home.

Brooklyn Condo Painting

The Fort Greene neighborhood in Brooklyn is revered for it tree-lined streets of brownstones in excellent condition, preserving treasured architecture and heritage. Factor in the 30-acre Fort Greene Park, once the site of a bonafide fort used in the Revolutionary War, the Brooklyn Academy of Music and a charming assortment of eateries and shops, and you have one very appealing, family-friendly, diversified segment of the Big Apple. It’s here that we were asked to totally brighten and lighten one condo’s artistic, main living space.

 White Paint Showcases Art

Decorator’s White, one of the Designer Classics Collection from Benjamin Moore, was selected for its enduring qualities of reverence, humility and peace. White reflects light to make spaces appear and feel larger. It also stands silently in any room to showcase art, furnishings and decorative accents. This condo exudes a warmly modern aura with  an incredibly streamlined harmony for its white, crisp, clean walls and tasteful furnishings.

Brooklyn Interior Residential Painting

Electricians are not painters, and we at Paintworks don’t wire electrical things. They do the wiring. We do the painting. So when a sharp Bedford-Stuyvesant resident had new lights installed, the electrician left some holes crudely patched and not painted. Right away we noted the uneven walls with rough patches and went to work. Of course, we removed or added as necessary the appropriate plaster to totally camouflage the holes. Then we sanded the walls for a sleek, uniform vertical surface.

We are able to computer match colors, and that’s how we achieved painting with the identical color on the walls. For good measure, we painted the trim as well with a nice, even finish. With this tall bay window, gorgeous wood flooring and period molding, this Brooklyn townhouse is once again a very inviting space to call home. The whole Bed-Stuy neighborhood has more than 8,000 pre-1900 structures which beckon city folks with touches of nostalgia and historical architecture. This client is very happy with the home’s refreshed, interior flair.
