Interior & Exterior Painting services in Brooklyn Heights
Brooklyn Heights holds some of the oldest houses in the borough. Its streets are lined with brick and brownstone row houses from the first half of the 1800s onward, a few early wood-frame houses, carriage houses, and later apartment buildings and co-ops. Interiors are fine and fragile: plaster walls and cornices, marble mantels, old wood shutters and doors with many layers of paint. Good painting here is slow, careful work, with plaster repair, hand sanding and lead-safe methods as a matter of course. Outside, the neighborhood stands on a bluff over the harbor, open to wind and damp from the water, so wood windows, doors and cornices need steady upkeep. Almost every exterior choice is reviewed, which makes it important to know the existing color before repainting. We paint houses, co-ops and apartments in the Heights.

The NYC Department of Buildings lists painting among the work that needs no permit. Nearly all of the neighborhood is inside the Brooklyn Heights Historic District. Repainting in the existing color needs no Landmarks Preservation Commission permit, but any color change or painting of bare masonry does.
