After Hours NYC Commercial Painters

Studies reporting the high productivity of employees who work in a clean, well-organized space are seriously embraced by this company, a repeat commercial office client in the Big Apple. For more than five years, Paintworks has provided professional services to keep their office spaces clean and bright. Most of the walls are white, which reflects maximum natural light and offers a comfortable work environment. Accent walls then provide style and variety.

Weekend and night work is part of our operating approach so businesses and offices need not close unnecessarily for our expert painting crews. Here, we may have surprised a few employees with newly painted offices for an extra happy Monday! The firm had ordered new furniture, and you know anything new makes other things look old. Not so, these folks! New furniture, newly painted walls, like-new digs providing a refreshed spirit and revitalized energy among the staff.

Upper East Side Accent Wallpaper Installation
 

Wolf-Gordon Manhattan Paper Hanging

With a keen eye for class and the desire to make a stylish statement in their new apartment, this family collaborated with our color consultant to determine their preference for the wall paint plus an accent wallpaper in the bedroom. Benjamin Moore’s Yukon Sky 1439 was selected for the walls, its smoky blue-gray subtly hinting at an approaching night time.

Wolf-Gordon’s wallpaper products combine excellent design with dependable performance. The wall surface must be completely smooth and uniform. There are many adhesives from which to choose depending on the thickness and material of the wallpaper. Then there’s using the precise amount of glue and lining up each sheet perfectly next to the previous one and trimming at the edges where one wall makes a corner with another one. Wallpaper installation is a demanding combination of art, science, timing and precision, and we happen to think this shimmery, dappled accent wall is very cool.

Manhattan New Construction Painter

There’s always a thrill in beginning something new – a job, a project, a school year. And with that enthusiasm comes the motivation to start off on the right foot, to do things well from the outset. Yet, as the humdrum of activity drones on, it’s easy to let things slide, and finishing well may take a back seat to simply finishing. This family bought a newly constructed home to discover that only primer had been put on the interior, no finish paint coats at all. Surprise!

Well, not much surprises us. We consulted with the homeowners on adding some color and our top quality painting experience to polish off their new interior. A refreshing soft mint green flanks massive windows in the master bedroom with an accent wall in Beau Green, a bold teal exuding refined sophistication. Deep charcoal in the bathroom simply offers a bit of drama to the small space. In essence, we finished this home, doing what we do best, starting strong on every project and always finishing well with the same dedication to excellence every step of the way.

 

 

 
NYC Ombre Wall Painters

Manhattan Decorative Painters

The Craft Studio has a presence in the Upper East Side and in Tribeca for classes and parties. Its mission is “to provide a fun, safe and welcoming environment where kids and adults are free to be creative! We put our heart and soul into making sure each customer has a unique, individualized and magical experience.” And to assist with this, we were contacted to create an ombre painted wall in one of the party spaces.

Ombré may sound a little Spanish because the pronunciation is the same as “hombre” which is Spanish for man. But, actually, ombré in the world of color is from French for “shaded”. And a quick search uncovers many more references to ombré hair than walls. But here we carefully applied four colors in seven color stages from dark to light, top to bottom: crocus petal purple, amethyst cream, lily lavender, misty lilac. It’s a beautiful wall and enhances the fun, upbeat, party atmosphere immensely.

Accent Wall and Bookcase Painting

The Upper West Side is known for its energy, cultural attractions and wonderful outdoor spaces. It was the backdrop for the movie “You’ve Got Mail” and the television series “Seinfeld.” People of all ages from all over the world call it home. We went to one of the homes recently to paint an accent wall, then carry the theme to the back wall of the corner bookcases. When the floors and adjacent spaces were safety protected, our team cleaned, sanded, primed and painted everything.

 The Benjamin Moore paint color is named Bonne Nuit, which is French for “good night.” We think it could be dubbed Bonne à Tout Moment meaning “good anytime.” The accent wall is spacious and framed with gorgeous trim. You do not need experience painting back walls between bookcase shelves to figure out that it’s a tricky project. For us, it’s just all in a day’s work, and the contrast between the walls, trim and shelving is striking and chic with a generous infusion of glamour and mystique.
