New office space can be personalized for the business, and we did just that for a customer who wanted its brand colors to make the new digs pop. With precision, we created a diagonal line split into two triangles of color for the entry. We worked after 6 p.m. so the employees involved in moving and setting up could manage that during normal business hours.
There's a reverence that accompanies our work in buildings more than a century old. We recently had the privilege of working on ceiling repair from a slow water leak in a top floor apartment in one of these well-preserved structures. The ceilings were 24 feet high, and jobs like this require expert contractors protecting floors, art and furnishings while assembling safe scaffolding and using professional plastering, smoothing and painting skills. After masterfully repairing and painting the ceiling, we painted the entire living room. These residents can now enjoy a drip-free, freshly painted space at the top, penthouse-like.
For more than 100 years, the Girl Scouts have been inspiring girls to advance skills and reach for the stars. Their cookies are an American icon, and their NYC store carries sashes, uniforms, clothing, fun badges and all kinds of cool merchandise. So not to interrupt any business hours, our Paintworks crew worked overnight scraping and plastering damaged walls and refreshing white walls which had become scuffed and dirty. Sherwin-Williams has mixed custom colors specifically for the Girl Scouts, and we applied those as instructed. All the merchandise, shelving and displays had been protected by us, and it was business as usual the next morning in a wonderful, clean, freshly painted store.

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.
Being trendy and contemporary in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood prompts property managers and homeowners to keep building exteriors and interiors in excellent condition. We were called to spray paint a metal entry door frame. Any metal paint job requires an in-depth knowledge of temperature, bonding components, kind and age of metal and condition. Covering and protecting surfaces around the door is imperative, along with the appropriate primer coat so the paint adheres well. The job was done with electrostatic paint spray equipment, and the residents can be proud of stepping into the building through an attractive, freshly painted metal frame around the entry.
