Interior painters in Upper West Side, Manhattan

Painting for Upper West Side prewar co-ops, classic apartments and brownstones.

The Upper West Side is full of prewar apartments with generous rooms and a lot of character: long entry halls, deep windows, plaster walls, picture rails and crown molding. Painting them well is a matter of working through the details.

We plan jobs here room by room. Radiators, window casings and moldings take longer than flat wall, so we price them in from the start instead of discovering them on day two. Plaster walls are patched and primed before painting, because a smooth surface is what makes a deep wall color look rich rather than patchy.

Most apartments sit inside buildings with doormen, elevators and rules for contractors. Share them with us when you request a quote and we will schedule the work and protect common areas accordingly.

What’s different about painting in Upper West Side

    Classic prewar apartments often have long entry halls and many separate rooms. We plan the work room by room, so you are never without a bedroom for long.

  • Radiators and detailed windows

    Painting behind and around radiators and along tall, detailed window casings takes patience and the right tools. We budget that time into the quote.
