Kid Bedroom Painting

Going to camp is like a rite of passage for many children, grasping on to their first fragment of independence. After days of fun activities with new friends, it can be a bit of a bummer trudging back into your own bedroom. But for one Upper West Manhattan boy, the joy was compounded when he arrived back home to find his bedroom repainted and compounded again that it was done in the theme for his favorite team: The New York Mets. This major league baseball team based in Queens was formed in 1962 to replace the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants, taking for its colors blue from the Dodgers and orange from the Giants.

 We loved taking a dull beige wall and transforming it with rich medium denim blue, technically PantoneTM PMS 288C, in a Benjamin Moore product, then contrasting that with Benjamin Moore's Chantilly Lace cream shade on the trim and ceiling. Maybe this happy boy in his Mets-theme bedroom dreams of rising to the ranks of Tom "Terrific" Seaver, Darryl Strawberry or Dwight Gooden. We had such a good time laying superior coats of paint expertly on these walls, we're thinking of catching a Mets game ourselves.

New Jersey New Home Painter

Cliffside Park, N.J., a borough within Bergen County, exudes an urban atmosphere more closely aligned with Brooklyn or Queens than the Garden State. It sits on natural, riverside cliffs dubbed the Palisades, and Anderson Avenue boasts shops which opened 60, 70 and 80 years ago, alongside fun boutiques and intriguing eateries.  

It was in this appealing environment that enthusiastic homeowners called in Paintworks to refine their new home. They chose to paint the living room all white for its universal neutrality to showcase art, fabric and furnishings. The foyer sports a new coat of medium pewter gray with fresh coats of white paint on the trim to accentuate a new entry warmth. We very carefully painted every riser up the staircase to create an elegant white contrast with the black steps, spindles and railing.

 We have the experience and expertise to craft straight clear lines that delineate trim from walls with precision and stair risers from steps. That kind of proficiency is what makes the final statement in this house - and everywhere else we work - one of pure class and urban sophistication.

Greenwich Village Interior Painting

Greenwich Village is one of the coolest and most historic places to live in New York City. The Village use to be known as an epicenter for the American Bohemia movement of the early and mid-20th century. These two rooms were painted with Farrow and Ball, which is one of the best paints to use because it has less binding agents, less water and more of all the important pigments. We were thrilled that we were able to paint this historic house.

Basement Wood Paneling Spraying

This client was looking to updated their wood paneled basement with a fresh start. We love spraying projects and were happy to jump on board. After covering the floors with brown construction paper we began spraying the paneling with Fresh Start Primer. After 2 coats of primer we moved to the finish coats. 2 coats of finish had this basement feeling renewed. It brightened up the space and gave the basement a more contemporary feel. The finished looks great. We paint it all!

Yorkville Manhattan Skim Coating, Carpentry, and Painting

When this client contacted us they just purchased beautiful apartment in the Upper East Side. They were moving back into Manhattan after spending a few years in Nassau County. They were excited to be back in the Big City and looking to create an apartment that matched this excitement. The apartment needed a lot of work. Luckily the owners has an amazing eye for detail and design and was not afraid to go bold. The crowning touch was his choice of black for new crown molding and the ceiling. Talk about interior elegance! Black has always been associated with strength and power with splashes of mystique and rebellion.

The vacant rectangular room had an awesome rustic clay brick floor-to-ceiling wall and fireplace, dull floors, 2 vertical windows and common white walls in need of a good paint job. The ceiling met the wall in undecorated 90-degree angles. Embedding crown molding into this unadorned space instantly enhanced the room. Sanding and refinishing the floors brought luster and sheen back to them. We then skim coated the walls for an even texture and to make it possible to install crown molding. Once the crown molding was installed we moved to painting. We expertly painted both the ceiling and the new crown molding in jet black. Adding gold drapes and a charcoal gray sofa created a uniquely gracious space which evokes a cozy tranquility amidst the dazzling excitement of city life. We were thrilled to participate in this transformation that embraces the natural world in wood and brick and refined lifestyle statement of exquisite black, pristine white and regal gold
