Painting in Williamsburg

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

Williamsburg is walk-ups over storefronts and newer mid-rise apartments. Older loft floors can hide plumbing in a slab.

Say whether the building is an old walk-up or a new elevator building, and which floor the fixture is on.

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.
