Protecting Home and Office during Painting Projects
 

Premium Prep Pointers before Painting

One of the most significant measures taken by the Paintworks crew members is protecting the interior environment in which they work. At the first step into a luxury condo, brownstone, house, office space or apartment, the professional painters evaluate what is needed to protect the floor, carpets, rugs and all the furnishings. Lamps, TV sets and decorative items must be covered before one paint can lid is lifted, along with artwork, chandeliers, drapes and bookcases. We take pride in safeguarding counters and appliances, personal belongings and pet feeding and crate areas.

Of the many ways to ensure that everything which is not to receive a coat of paint does not get one tiny drop is to gather furnishings away from walls and secure large heavy-duty plastic sheets over and around things. We use appropriate floor coverings, drop cloths, tarps, rosin paper, good ol’ masking tape and other protective products. Securing phone jacks, electric outlets and technology apparatus is on our radar, too.

All the Paintworks training and project tasks emphasize tender loving care, as in old-fashioned TLC, to all interior pieces that should not have any new paint on them. Whether you have a Steinway grand piano, a $5,000 Pottery Barn leather sofa, original art by Pablo Picasso, a recent flea market chair you haggled to $18 cash or a crayon drawing of your dog made by your second grader, we protect it all with the same discerning attention.

Paintworks is your reliable go-to team for painting everything which needs painting and being confident that what does not need painting does not get any paint! Additionally, all our prerequisites for projects include protection from scraping and sanding debris. We treat your home and office precisely like we would want our own homes and offices managed and respected during a paint project. That’s how we roll (paint).

 

 
Long Island City Loft Painter
 

NYC Loft Painter

The whole fresh start concept covers a lot of ground, and a bright, newly-painted interior can be a great launching pad into a new home in a new place. A couple with their beloved cat were about to make the leap into this Long Island City loft, but first the old dingy appearance had to be updated.

With lots of windows and natural daylight, selecting Benjamin Moore’s Simply White made the most sense for maximum reflection. White also sets the perfect background for bringing in art, fabric and colors that take center stage visually. Long Island City itself presents an energetic stage where trendy eateries and modern arts commingle comfortably with historic industrial vibes, corner parks, waterfront city views, outdoor concerts and intriguing shops.
