New York Interior Painters

"It was a joy working with and his team.  The are both professional, on time and friendly. I purchased a "Big Deal" from Angie's list that  offered  for $599 for 500 square feet.  My living area is approximately 1000 square.  I called to set up an in home estimate.  ...more showed up on time and listened to all the things I wanted to happen.  Within 2 days I had a detailed estimate that I could go with or pick and choose according to my budget.   The team of painters were very detailed oriented and made sure that I was happy every step of the way.  They helped by making paint color suggestions as well as giving guidance on a host of other things.   At one point during the job some extra work needed to be done the team immediately called me to give me the option of having the work completed or going on without.   The paint job was beautiful and my apartment was left as clean as it was when the began. I would highly recommend."

"Zigy came in the apartment, gave me an estimate and afterwards sent pictures of other projects he completed in order for me to assess his work quality. I really liked his work done before and decided to go ahead with him to complete my project. I am very pleased with his punctuality, professionalism and constant communication throughout the life of ...more the project. He completely demolished my kitchen &  bathroom and completed the project in the timeframe he provided. I chose all the materials used for the project and Zigy gave me good recommendations regarding the esthetics. He keeps the premises clean and his tools are always organized. Another good quality of Zigy is his adaptability. We encountered some problems with the installation of the lights and mirror in the bathroom, but he quickly found solutions and everything turned out great."

" did a fantastic job renovating a one bedroom apartment that hadn't been renovated since it was built in the early 1980's. Installed wood floors, installed bathroom and kitchen floors, painted and spackeled the entire apartment, really worked on the kitchen cabinets nicely without the need to replace them.  Did a fantastic ...more job in the bathroom adding a new vanity, making the tub look new and cleaning all the overhead light fixtures which are big component of the ceiling.Unit is for sale, and it's very tricky understanding what should and shouldn't be renovated to maximize the value. Evertyime I wanted to move in a direction that wouldn't add value to the sale price,

consulted with me and gave his honest opinon, which was invaluable.

's pricing is right where it should be, he's not cheap  (you get what you pay for in contracting) and he's not expensive. 

's work is certainly worth the value and price he charges and you couldn't meet a more affable and honest contractor."

"My husband and I highly recommend Paintworks to anyone who is looking for honest, dependable and detail-oriented painting. When we decided to put our condo on the , we dreaded the fact that such decision would necessarily require us to hire a contractor to paint our apartment. Our dread was based on the fact that all our previous ...more interactions with NYC contractors (including a major renovation when we first purchased our apartment) had resulted in shoddy work, an enormous time commitment on our part in overseeing their work and finally litigation. In fact, we signed up for Angie's List in order to properly vet and hopefully avoid our previous troubles. After reading the positive reviews about

and Paintworks, we decided to contact them to repaint our apartment. From our first interaction with

, his care and professionalism impressed us . Let’s take it piece by piece.

promptly returned my call for an estimate and when I told him what I was looking for (a repaint of our apartment as quickly as possible so we could list it), he accommodated me by coming in for an estimate within a few days of my call and was forthright about telling me that they could begin work within 5 days of our accepting their proposal.

showed up on time for the estimates (he actually performed two estimates to work with our budget and timing) and spent considerable time examining the areas that needed to be painted. Paintworks gave us a fair estimate and started work exactly when they said they would. They treated our possessions with care, and nothing was damaged / incorrectly painted. The painting they did was high quality. The workers were quite courteous, and put all of our things back exactly where they were when they completed the job (even rehooking all of the electronics properly). They said the job would take 3 days and they completed it in 3 days. As people with busy work schedules and little time to dedicate to worrying about supervising a contractor's work or being around to make sure someone was doing what they promised, we can tell you that Paintworks was hassle free and exceeded our expectations. (In fact, they were at least 10 minutes early every day.) We couldn’t ask for more in all honesty. From start to finish they were honest, skilled and courteous. We’ve never seen it anywhere else in NYC to be honest. Our only regret is that we didn't know about Paintworks when we were originally renovating our apartment. It could have saved us a lot of time, energy and heartache."

"The crew arrived at 9am each day, set up & worked until clean up at 3:30pm. Our apartment management allows workers 9 to 4 only. The work was done with owner and pets on property."

"Bill was referred to us by a friend who was extremely pleased with the work he did on their bathroom renovation. We originally consulted with him about our bathrooms but decided painting and lighting our main floor was more of a priority. I liked Bill right away. He really cared about our project and gave us thoughtful advice at every juncture. He was ...more quick to respond to my phone calls and emails and always kept a good sense of humor (especially since all our meetings were attended by my curious toddler). He went out of his way to accommodate the window of time we needed to start the project (a house-sitting opportunity that would keep us out of the way) and when the time came he hired quality professionals who, without exception, did excellent work. The few inevitable hiccups were always quickly addressed. When it came to billing he was more than fair - and we were always happy to sign the checks because we were so thrilled with the results. Our home looks transformed! We are already planning to use him again when we renovate our bathrooms this summer."

" is a top-notch professional. After initially hiring a someone else to remove wallpapering from my kitchen walls and paint it, the person almost destroyed my kitchen walls by not taking off all of the adhesive left from the installation of wallpapering AND then this person painted over the residue leaving my kitchen walls lumpy ...more and unsightly. I hired

to come in to repair the damage and he did an excellent job.

skimmed coated my kitchen walls, primed and painted my kitchen with semi gloss latex."

"Overall, the job was of a very high quality and reflects the toil and taxation (pun intended) of the contractor and owner. Much thought and care was poured into each and every detail of this renovation, from sconce to shutter screw. Project began with a consultation and estimate and took roughly four months to complete, sensible for the scale of work. ...more One early regret was not having ironed out each and every minute detail (fixtures, products, etc.) at the very beginning of the project. This delayed some things and occasionally caused

between owner and contractor. Perhaps the contractor's biggest asset besides his experience is that he works on one job at a time; he focused completely on my project, unlike most contractors of today. The job progressed relatively smoothly with the few usual snags of such a large scale (of an ironically small space) renovation. All issues were resolved in the end and the result is truly magnificent. A few things that said contractor could have improved upon were flexibility on design/product selection (which in the end, he was, but sometimes discussions prolonged the project) and a better scheduled/stricter payment plan as part of the contract. As previously mentioned, a full agreement on product/design selection from the beginning would have benefited both parties as resolving these issues during the process extended the completion date and often added unforeseen costs. In sum, I would reiterate the words "truly magnificent," though even this phrase cannot begin to describe the

of the completed space. The contractor's ideas and experience with old brownstones coupled with the owner's creativity created a singular place in Manhattan that is beyond simply a living space...it is an organic environment that resurrects the age upon which its design is based and, right down to each and every carefully chosen doorknob, showcases the owner and contractor's hard work, dedication, inspiration, and most of all: vision."
