Brooklyn Duplex Interior Painting

There are lots of things new tenants would enjoy like donuts, a vase of fresh flowers, gift card to the local deli and so on. But as professional painters, we see those consumables are here today-gone tomorrow. On the other hand, a fresh coat of interior paint lasts much longer and speaks the language of caring about renters having fresh, clean spaces in which to create their new home. Home is where the heart is, for sure, it’s a refuge from the hustle-bustle of city streets and subways. Maya Angelou related that “the ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.”

 In this charming Brooklyn duplex, we painted high and wide after some routine light plastering and sanding to smooth out a few places. Plaster and sandpaper go to every job because most of them need a spot or more of touch-up. Painting professionally with superior results requires a keen eye from many angles, good lighting and the kind of surface assessment that only comes with experience. White Dove paint is always an excellent choice for projecting a bright, polished interior. Welcome home, new tenants!

 
Upper East Side – New Tenant Rental Painting

UES Local Painters

With a bird’s eye view out this Upper East Side apartment, the owner wanted her rental nest to look great before marketing it for new tenants. The ceiling needed some repair, and since you can’t have a tree canopy and the sky above, like the real birds do, then sprucing this up was the next best thing. Ceilings are often only in our peripheral vision, not especially noteworthy, until there’s peeling paint or a little damage or imperfections that capture our eye. Then one might wonder if the ceiling here is not important to keep clean and freshly painted, what else might not be up to snuff?

 So, the Paintworks troop moved in with plaster, paint, ladders, scaffolding, long handles for rollers and all the tools for plastering, priming and painting the tops of the rooms. Ceilings can be challenging up overhead, but we are always up for any challenge that involves, renovation, flooring and more. This lady landlord can now proudly show the space in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, known for Madison Avenue, the Museum Mile and almost everything you need for a satisfying live-work-play experience.

 
Brownstone Painters for New Tenants

Painting Brooklyn Brownstone For Rent

Renting property is challenging for landlords and owners. The price has to be right for the neighborhood and the specific home, and one needs to consider leases, background checks and references. For showing, every room should be clean and neat, even if there is furniture in there. Walls, floors and appliances especially stand out in unfurnished space, and this property manager for a Prospect Heights brownstone understood completely the value in having fresh paint everywhere.

 Clean, attractive, neutral paint showcases every space in a rental property. It allows prospective tenants to visualize their furnishings, wall art, color scheme and rugs in a new place. So our Paintworks team went right to work freshening this historical brownstone in the charming Prospect Hill area, known for Prospect Park, century-old architecture, public libraries and museums. We like to think the fresh paint throughout this brownstone will seal the deal for new tenants, who likely will also embrace the family-friendly environment and folksy vibes of the neighborhood.

Flexible Painting Contractor for Property Managers

 When tenants change, many property owners and managers call us in to freshen the interior for showing living spaces to potential residents. This duplex is a charming one with exposed brick for a rustic touch, stainless steel appliances for 21st century kitchen accoutrements and fresh white paint for that timeless appeal. Whatever the condition of the walls – or ceilings or floors – we can make it new by cleaning, patching and spackling, sanding, priming and painting. Our crew’s experience offers vision in seeing what is present and what needs to be done. Like good pilots and good surgeons, our painters know the outcome before they begin.

NYC Rental Preparation

Riverside Drive is aptly named for hugging the shoreline of the Hudson River in Manhattan. Homeowners and property managers here are meticulous about their properties, and this high-rise condo was being prepared for the rental market. The dark walls were a bit foreboding, and the white walls were kind of beat up and uneven. After removing the light attached to one black wall, we patched the damage, spackled and smoothed all the walls and finished everything with lustrous white coats of paint. The landlord was very pleased and is moving forward to advertise and show this radiant, attractive rental condominium.
