Park Slope Exterior Painting

Despite our best efforts, we do judge a book by its cover, people by their attire and a business for the front exterior appearance of its building. The Paintworks & Decorating team was delighted to roll into the Park Slope neighborhood once again, this time to spruce up and re-paint the very cool real estate company Compass's front door and window frames. We covered the sidewalk, expertly taped around the window frames and scraped off old crumbling paint before priming, which occurs before painting anything for a perfect adhering foundation. The window frames have clear, sharp painted edges where they meet the glass because our painters expertly select the right brush for the job and use the kind of steady hand that comes with copious experience painting slim, narrow things. The front door is totally updated with a smooth, new coat of paint. We even power-washed the sign. Inside, the professional real estate agents with Compass are proud of this sleek, smart appearance and extend a special welcome to step inside and visit about your own housing and property hopes and dreams.

Painting Storefront for Conan O’Brien New Season Launch Marketing

Talk about springing into action on short notice with a whisker of temperature variance and a very tight deadline - those were the parameters that Paintworks recently dealt with for an exterior retail store paint job for a nationally syndicated television show. Factor in going from a dark color, black in his case, to a lighter color, orange, and the challenges before us were embraced with confidence and courage. We had 24 hours to begin and end the job and were incredibly thankful that temps hovered ever so slightly above 35 degrees so the exterior paint could bond properly.

We were stoked for the opportunity and worked practically around the clock with Benjamin Moore's Aura Exterior Paint. Among its advantages is the low temperature application possibility, along with exceptional color results with Color Lock® technology, superior adhesion properties, fast dry and re-coat times and self-priming capability. We worked diligently and attentively across three coats to get the desired cover-up of the black and strong presence of the orange. Then we stood back, admired our work and went for donuts.

Exterior House Painter NYC

When this homeowner called us she was looking to refresh the exterior of the home for the new renters. The house hadn't had it's stucco exterior painted in over 12 years and it was started to show. The bottom picture shows before we got started. You can see the failing paint around all the windows, the accumulation of dirt is also visible. Our first step was to rent a boom lift that would allow us to reach all corners of this house. We spent the first day power washing the entire stucco exterior. The next day was devoted to more preparation as we scraped the failing paint, plastered any holes/cracks and caulked around all windows. Once was that was completed we masked off the areas that were not to be painted. We then used professional spray machines to paint the exterior stucco walls. After spraying the stucco was completed we hand painted all window frames and shutters. The client picked a boldly beautiful red to contrast the white house. The client was in awe when she saw the finished project. It looks like an entirely new exterior to her house. Very grateful to be a part of this exterior transformation.
