Brooklyn Flooring Contractor

It’s been said that the best time to plant a tree is today. And one of the best times to update a kitchen floor is in preparing a place for new tenants. These homeowners wanted to update the retro look of a somewhat worn black and white tile floor with a more contemporary kind of cool in a marbleized look. Floor work like this entails moving all the appliances and base cabinets off said floor and removing it piece by piece. A comprehensive inspection of the subfloor is next, and once it is deemed ready for new flooring, we meticulously install it.

 With everything out of the way, it’s a great time to paint the kitchen as well, which we did. Then the Paintworks crew positioned the lower cabinet back in place along with the big appliances. Voila! The kitchen was refreshed. The homeowner landlords were happy. And we are confident that new tenants will love the floor and freshly painted kitchen in their new abode.

Queens Tile Contractor

Queens is an eclectic blend of diverse neighborhoods, great sports, arts and culture and cool dining spots, craft brew and interesting shops. In its midst, a family new to the area needed a kitchen renovation, and we were excited to tackle this project. The first task at hand is always to protect adjacent spaces and floors. Then we removed the entire old kitchen and carted the stuff away. Two-tone cabinets are gaining in popularity, so we installed the lower wood ones and upper white ones, both sporting glamorous bronze hardware.

 Installing the new herringbone pattern backsplash was an exercise in intricate measurements, custom tile cutting all along the way and exact placement to achieve the overall sleek look. Tools included a laser level, but the steady hand of experience and keen eye for details can be credited with this result. Cutting tile is not for the faint-hearted or amateur. It is all about precision especially at the lower and upper edges where it has to look like the pattern simply continues on up and down behind the cupboards. The family is very pleased with their new kitchen to enjoy and new neighborhood to explore.

Manhattan Kitchen Cabinet Update

New homeowners in Manhattan with a keen eye for kitchen design hired us to resurface the kitchen cabinets and add new hardware. They cleverly selected the Sherwin-Williams Anchors Aweigh rich charcoal color for the lower cabinets which contrasts elegantly with Sherwin-Williams Pure White above the counter. Both are semi-gloss for a little sheen that's easy to clean. The white backsplash in a herringbone pattern updates the look, and the eclectic mix of brass and brushed nickel hardware on the cabinets was reinstalled vertically for a more modern visual. We finished up with a big Welcome Home to the happy new owners.

NYC Kitchen Cabinets Professionally Renovated

We recently connected with a homeowner in the Washington Square neighborhood with a keen eye for creatively brightening the kitchen. Dark cabinets can create the illusion of a small space appearing smaller still, and this gentleman wanted lighter and brighter paired with interesting. Thus, the Chelsea Gray semi-gloss on the lower cabinets was complemented with Pure White on the top ones and the backsplash. 

We carefully disassembled the doors to be spray painted off site, while cautiously painting the cabinet structure and backsplash right in place. All the paint products were Benjamin Moore, founded in New York City in 1883 and known for its high quality. The homeowner's vision was achieved, and we were mightily pleased ourselves with the outcome once the doors were transported back and re-installed. It is indeed lighter, brighter and interesting. Mission accomplished.
