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).

Property Management Painters in Sutton Place

Property management companies go right into action between tenants. It’s the perfect time for repairs, updates, painting and refurbishing appliances, in this case a stove. To accommodate this new stove, a licensed electrician needed to bore holes into the walls and install or upgrade the necessary wiring to meet code. Then guess what happens? The electrician packs up the tools, heads out the door and sends a bill for services rendered.

Our crew rolls in next to fill and spackle the holes, sand them, re-plaster as necessary, smooth again, and finally apply fresh paint to make things look seamless once again. Paint products for kitchens and baths, given the level of moisture in those spaces, are specially formulated. Here we used one of those sophisticated kitchen and bath paints in a warm, creamy Navaho White, the perfect contrast to the black counters. Modern and sleek, we think.

Wall Street Condo Painter

It’s no secret that fresh paint is the number one best-selling first step in preparing a property for sale. And it’s no secret either that Decorator’s White is a top fave color chosen with confidence. As part of the Designer Classics Collection, prospective buyers are wowed its timeless elegance. They can easily visualize their own furnishings, artwork, colors, rugs and accessories among clean, pure, serene, white walls.

Some of the wood in this sleek, contemporary bathroom [below] had water damage which we patched, primed and sanded, then topped with two finish coats. New owners will love the natural stone here which contrasts comfortably with chrome and white fixtures and glass doors. The open concept is accentuated with large windows flooding the space with natural daylight and city views. We are your partner in real estate sales for being the Painter in Manhattan which can get your property show-ready quickly and professionally. They may not have made a movie about us [yet], but our work moves homes for sale faster than it took Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes to figure out their love for one another in the film “Maid in Manhattan”. At least that’s what we think.
