Interior & Exterior Painting services in Bedford-Stuyvesant
Bedford-Stuyvesant has block after block of brownstone and brick row houses from the late 1800s, along with limestone fronts, wood-frame houses and prewar apartment buildings. Many homes still have their original details: carved stoops, wood cornices, tall parlor windows, plaster walls and ceilings, mantels and heavy door and window trim. Painting here is mostly about respecting that old fabric. Plaster cracks are repaired before paint. Trim with a century of coats is sanded with care, and old oil enamel gets a bonding primer. Because nearly all of it predates 1978, lead-safe methods matter whenever paint is disturbed. Outside, cornices and window frames take the weather: summer humidity, driving rain and winter freeze and thaw. Kept painted, that woodwork lasts. Left bare, it rots quickly. We work on houses, rentals and apartments across Bed-Stuy.
