Stairwell Painter Westchester

Painting natural wood stairs is a transformative process. Our client was looking to brighten up the trim in this White Plains home, and we were happy to be chosen for the project.

White Plains Interior Painter

Before painting the stair risers, we covered and protected every natural wood step. We cleaned, sanded, primed, sanded and primed again before applying 2 finish coats of Benjamin Moore’s Aura interior paint on the stair risers. The new white paint creates a stunning contrast.

Painting over woodwork

While the coats of primer were drying on the stair risers, we turned our attention to the stair trim - priming and sanding the stair spindles and the stringers (the baseboard looking piece running alongside the stairs). After two coats of primer, another two coats of Benjamin Moore Aura interior paint were added.

Why two coats of primer?

We like to use two coats of primer on natural wood to help cover the wood grain. Multiple primer coats enhance the finish paint bond so it properly adheres to a surface that was previously unpainted.

BEFORE painting

Westchester Interior Painting

After years of family gatherings, pets and children running around and up and down stairs, and moving furniture in and out, a home’s walls can take a beating. Slowly over time, the walls collect dirt and dust and eventually look dingy. This family had not painted their home’s interior for more than 15 years, and it was starting to show. In addition to the dinginess, they wanted a color change, something different.

The well-maintained home was already beautiful with detailed trim woodwork and dark floors. Our job was to refresh the walls and the trim to give the spaces and the inhabitants a new zest for home life. The freshly painted living room (pictured above) presents a comfortable contrast between white trim, neutral wall color, and dark floors and furnishings. It is a relaxing, cheerful space where we could happily relax, read on the couch and enjoy the fireplace any day!

We painted this entire large Hastings-on-Hudson home in a few days. Working with a crew of 4 to 5 painters each day, we systematically prep, paint and clean up to deliver an updated, revitalized interior. Our goals always include client satisfaction and the best communication in the industry from estimate to proposal to painting to the final walk-through.

Residential Cabinet Spraying, Long Island, NY

The nicest family with great kids, a rambunctious dog and a gorgeous kitchen in need of updating before the holidays reached out for cabinet resurfacing, and we were excited to be part of the plan. From old dull brown to exciting fresh White Dove by Benjamin Moore, the Paintworks crew expertly removed the cupboard doors and drawers to spray off-site at our own special shop space designed for these projects. This soft white paint with a hint of gray is extremely popular, especially for kitchens, and the choice of satin texture offers a slight sheen that is easy to clean. Certainly their extended family and friends will be wowed by this new, very light, very bright heart of the home.

Gramercy Park Home Painter

In effort to sell this property in a timely fashion Halstead Realty and the owners decided to freshen up the place with a paint job so the property would show better. The NYC apartment hadn’t been painted in over 20 years and it showed. One day of intense plastering and painting got the condo back to near mint condition. The client chose Benjamin Moore Decorator’s White which works perfectly with the condo’s large living room windows. We always use Benjamin Moore Aura Bath and Spa in the bathroom to help protect the walls and ceiling from heat and humidity. We’re always grateful and happy to paint in the beautiful Union Square area.

Battery Park Condo Painter

Before this homeowner listed her home for sell she wanted to freshen up the place for prospective buyers. We started by removing all the wallpaper in this Downtown Manhattan condo. Once that was done we cleaned off the glue residue, primed and painted the whole place. We then refinished the flooring to really make the place sparkle. Refinishing the hardwood floor was the final step to making this apartment ready to fetch a higher price tag. With the big windows and the fresh paint the place feels bigger.
