Painting in Bedford-Stuyvesant

What this visit usually covers

• A single room is a different job from an empty apartment. Count the rooms and the ceiling height.
• Trim and doors take longer than a flat wall. Say if they are included.
• A fresh drywall patch needs primer. Paint will flash if the patch is skipped.
• Lead-safe work in older coatings is a scope question. Do not ask a painter to sand unknown old paint without saying the building is old.

Getting into the building

Bedford-Stuyvesant is brownstones and small apartment buildings. The garden apartment and the parlor floor can have separate water risers.

Say which floor is yours and whether your shutoff is separate from the garden apartment.

What to send with the request

• Each room to be painted, including the ceiling if it is in scope.
• Damage, hooks, and wallpaper that would have to come off first.
• The color chip or the can if you are matching.

Painting over an active leak, mold that is still wet, or a wall that needs new board will not hold. Fix the source first.

A remote consult is separate

Fixt Virtual Fix is a video consult at $39 for 20 minutes. It can be booked from anywhere. It does not dispatch an on-site fixer. On-site painter work stays in New York ZIP codes 100–149.
