Benjamin Moore Paint Helps Sell Townhouse

 Pair one pretty kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a generous island and large measure of natural daylight with one homeowner ready to sell, and you have a scenario that requires a splash of color in fresh paint. That was the listing agent’s suggestion, and we rolled in to do the job.

Naming a paint Cotton Balls, as Benjamin Moore has done, takes out the guess work on what color that might be. They describe it a “go-to bright white enlivened with a trace of yellow undertone.” Green is everywhere in the trees, leaves and grass of the pedestrian-friendly Park Slope neighborhood and evokes both energy and generosity. Of course, green means “go” at every traffic signal, and so they instructed us to go with this lovely medium green like Boston ferns after a light rain. It’s a marvelous way to bring the outdoors of summer into the heart of the home.

Most folks in the Park Slope slice of Brooklyn enjoy casual eateries, organic food markets, trendy bars and cafes, along with Prospect Park and abundant outdoor spaces. There’s a small-town vibe here alongside big city amenities. The schools are among the best, and the lifestyle drifts a bit toward the slow lane. There’s a creative presence, a diversified night life and manicured streetscapes. It’s no wonder this townhouse sold faster than expected, and we like to think our superior paint job played a little role. The sellers have dreams to follow, and buyers are excited to embrace all that Brooklyn’s Park Slope has to offer. Everyone is happy!

Sutton Place Painting and Renovations

Mirrors can enlarge spaces and make rooms feel brighter. If large enough, they can overwhelm any space and the people in it, feeling like life is taking place in a carnival hall of mirrors. The largest hall of mirrors in the world was completed in 1684 in the Palace at Versailles outside Paris. It runs 240 feet long with unparalleled grandeur in art, windows and mirrors adorning the walls and ceiling.

Well, this Manhattan client was not at all interested in the massive mirrored walls in their new home in Sutton Place. We thought the place felt more like an automobile showroom ourselves and tired quickly of seeing our own reflections. Removing glass this gigantic out of the home and building took lots of careful maneuvering before setting about removing all the adhesive. Once that was cleaned, patched and primed, we painted it an elegant neutral with Silverpointe, a soothing soft gray from Sherwin-Williams. Now that’s a homey touch which promptly warmed the room.

NYC Flaking Paint Repair

There’s a certain measure of comfort living in the same space for a long time. It provides continuity through the years with sentimental surroundings. Then along comes a time when a few changes are needed to preserve the overall interior feel. Peeling paint flaking on the walls gets one’s attention, and this long-term resident was ready for repairs, updates and modifications.

We scraped, sanded and added new plaster plus replaced a baseboard. Once everything on the walls was smooth and dry, we expertly painted one combo bedroom and work space a neutral sand shade with an earthy flair. Another room now sports a comfortable contrast with black walls providing a splash of sophistication and mystery, and white walls offering a sense of reverence. One bright blue accent wall delivers a pop of color with a slice of harmony. This home nest in the Big Apple now boasts smooth walls with fresh paint in comfortable contrasts for an emotional lift, like a new start.
