DUMBO Painting Company

Preparing a home for sale means doing a lot of things like deep cleaning, de-cluttering, de-personalizing and washing the windows, but top on the list for almost everyone – seller and buyer alike - is fresh paint. Clean walls and trim, white ceilings and smooth vertical surfaces where prospective buyers can envision their décor can even be the tipping point for an offer. The condos at One John Street on DUMBO’s waterfront in Brooklyn Bridge Park offer amenities that rival a 5-star resort. There are 42 exquisite residences in 2, 3, and 4-bedroom floor plans, and the building has the coveted LEED Gold Certification for energy and environmental design.

 We are the preferred painters for these sophisticated condo homes, which have just about the best views of Manhattan in all of Brooklyn. We love working here, and especially enjoyed preparing this residence as “show ready” to go on the market. There was some patching to be done, which we expertly addressed before painting. The Extra White paint choice from Sherwin-Williams conveys goodness, youthfulness and tranquility. The walls are eggshell for easy to keep clean without glare, and the trim was painted the same color in semi-gloss. We doubt this lovely place with its marvelous views will stay on the market very long.

NYC Millwork Painter

 New owners of a luxury penthouse in Midtown East Manhattan recognized and appreciated the quality elements in wood paneling and wood floors, but envisioned a lighter, brighter home without wallpaper, medium wood tones on the walls and bookcases and dark wood floors. Thus, we stepped in to remove wallpaper, patch walls, sand, sand and sand some more before spray painting the fine millwork and refinishing the floors. We primed this gorgeous woodwork with many coats, sanding in between for the most smooth, lustrous finish.

 Farrow & Ball is a British manufacturer of fine paints which reflect historic color palettes, or in their version of English, “colour” palettes. Their New White paint is named for it being more warm than classic whites for its yellow base. It can take on creamy, chamois, ivory and sheep’s wool tones, reflecting light and creating an alluring interior environment. Spray painting such a luxury residence is not for the faint of heart or inexperienced paint contractor. The desired result comes only from extensive involvement in superior painting projects with the best equipment and most highly skilled tradesmen. Refinishing the floors to a lighter wood also revitalized the interior atmosphere. This is now a more striking 21st century penthouse where light plays off the walls, and an unrivaled warmth envelops the new residents.
