Prospect Heights Interior Painting

 New homeowners in Prospect Heights wanted to spruce up their living room and this charming, contemporary staircase. Things were kind of gray, and for them, kind of drab. So we happily converted the living room walls from dreary to dreamy with Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace paint. “As delicate and refined as the lace it was named after, this crisp, clean white evokes images of pure silk, soft linen and simpler times.” [Benjaminmoore.com]

Then we turned to this beautiful staircase. Floating staircases like this one maximize open space and offer the illusion of floating steps. It’s a stunning piece coming down to this high quality, hardwood floor. We painted the structural support, hand rail and railing parts, contrasting that with black stair steps on the open risers. We set up scaffolding and ladders often, and we belly crawl like alligators when necessary to make certain every square inch of wall, staircase and trim is painted perfectly. Our paint teams go to all heights and depths to cover all bases, as they say, on every project.

Westchester Interior Painting

After years of family gatherings, pets and children running around and up and down stairs, and moving furniture in and out, a home’s walls can take a beating. Slowly over time, the walls collect dirt and dust and eventually look dingy. This family had not painted their home’s interior for more than 15 years, and it was starting to show. In addition to the dinginess, they wanted a color change, something different.

The well-maintained home was already beautiful with detailed trim woodwork and dark floors. Our job was to refresh the walls and the trim to give the spaces and the inhabitants a new zest for home life. The freshly painted living room (pictured above) presents a comfortable contrast between white trim, neutral wall color, and dark floors and furnishings. It is a relaxing, cheerful space where we could happily relax, read on the couch and enjoy the fireplace any day!

We painted this entire large Hastings-on-Hudson home in a few days. Working with a crew of 4 to 5 painters each day, we systematically prep, paint and clean up to deliver an updated, revitalized interior. Our goals always include client satisfaction and the best communication in the industry from estimate to proposal to painting to the final walk-through.

Basement Wood Paneling Spraying

This client was looking to updated their wood paneled basement with a fresh start. We love spraying projects and were happy to jump on board. After covering the floors with brown construction paper we began spraying the paneling with Fresh Start Primer. After 2 coats of primer we moved to the finish coats. 2 coats of finish had this basement feeling renewed. It brightened up the space and gave the basement a more contemporary feel. The finished looks great. We paint it all!

After removing the wallpaper in this west side home, we cleaned off the glue residue and primed the walls. We then painted the walls with Benjamin Moore Simply White which really makes this beautiful antique sofa really pop!

Yorkville Manhattan Skim Coating, Carpentry, and Painting

When this client contacted us they just purchased beautiful apartment in the Upper East Side. They were moving back into Manhattan after spending a few years in Nassau County. They were excited to be back in the Big City and looking to create an apartment that matched this excitement. The apartment needed a lot of work. Luckily the owners has an amazing eye for detail and design and was not afraid to go bold. The crowning touch was his choice of black for new crown molding and the ceiling. Talk about interior elegance! Black has always been associated with strength and power with splashes of mystique and rebellion.

The vacant rectangular room had an awesome rustic clay brick floor-to-ceiling wall and fireplace, dull floors, 2 vertical windows and common white walls in need of a good paint job. The ceiling met the wall in undecorated 90-degree angles. Embedding crown molding into this unadorned space instantly enhanced the room. Sanding and refinishing the floors brought luster and sheen back to them. We then skim coated the walls for an even texture and to make it possible to install crown molding. Once the crown molding was installed we moved to painting. We expertly painted both the ceiling and the new crown molding in jet black. Adding gold drapes and a charcoal gray sofa created a uniquely gracious space which evokes a cozy tranquility amidst the dazzling excitement of city life. We were thrilled to participate in this transformation that embraces the natural world in wood and brick and refined lifestyle statement of exquisite black, pristine white and regal gold
