Process was super easy, you basically just send them a video of the place and tell them your choice in paint colors (we went with Benjamin Moore, which I think they prefer) a day or two beforehand. Would hire them again.

Working with Damian and his team has been a pleasure. We emailed for a quote and he asked some…read morequestions and for some photos of the space. (Every other person we emailed for a quote did the same. None came to visit, and with COVID I was cool with that.) His quote was consistent with most of the other highly rated folk we reached out to for quotes. What set him apart was his clear emails with detailed pricing. It was clear that he knew painting was expensive, and people imagine doing everything at once and think of it as all-or-nothing. His pricing model showed it was some-at-a-time. (We did go all in though :) ) He was very responsive on email and answered questions from the mundane to the esoteric with patience and clarity. He came the day before the job was supposed to start to drop off supplies and map out everything that was should happen with me and his team. His team was great, polite, and professional. The speed and quality of the work was amazing. Everyone was happy to answer questions and explain what was happening. For me, the true test was with an accident that happened. Relatively minor, but Damian took full ownership and made it right without any discussion. That is how you do it. He gave great advice throughout the process, and respected what I needed. Have already asked for quotes on additional spaces in the house. Highly recommend.

Larry and his team are the best. They did such a great job painting the interior of our house…read more Larry really knows his stuff and is a pleasure to work with.

It's important to find someone you are comfortable with, and trust. Larry is easy to work with. He will set you at ease as you set up the project. From the moment they arrived, everyone got to work. It's a course in the economy of motion: thorough, efficient. After taking great care in preparing the space, the walls were their canvas. Artists at work, great value! The end results are exquisite. And they left the space immaculate. Happy as can be. Mastery over mediocrity any day.

Limewash for a bedroom is a bold choice with a very specific technique and they knocked it out of the park. They were very patient with my wife and I as we took our time to choose the right colors and schedule the job around our unpredictable schedules. The first time we saw the room finished we were awe struck. It turned out 100 times better than we ever thought it could have. On top of that the team was very receptive to doing any and all small, detailed touchups that we requested. George even let us live with the room for a few days to make sure we were totally satisfied, and in that time, we realized that we wanted to redo the ceiling. He and his team came back the next week and re-did the ceiling in half a day and made sure we were happy with it. We are very detail oriented and picky clients but we always felt taken care of with George and his team. Overall great experience.

We had an exceptional experience working with Bair and the Paint Lab team and would recommend them…read morewithout hesitation, especially for anyone navigating a NYC co-op renovation. From the outset, Bair's communication was impeccable, proactive, clear, and highly professional. He handled all co-op requirements seamlessly, including COIs and supporting paperwork, which immediately inspired confidence and made the process feel calm and well managed. The proposal was thorough, transparent, and very fairly priced for the level of craftsmanship delivered. Bair also has a strong eye for design and was a thoughtful partner throughout the project, offering guidance while remaining flexible and responsive as our schedule shifted more than once. We chose deep, richly saturated colors throughout our apartment, a bold decision that can be unforgiving in a plaster unit where every surface detail shows. Paint Lab executed this beautifully. The color saturation is even, refined, and striking, with no shortcuts taken. Their plastering and sanding work was equally impressive, with walls that are smooth, clean, and impeccably prepared, elevating the final result significantly. In addition, they installed high-end wallpaper with exceptional precision, and the result looks absolutely fabulous. The alignment, finish, and overall execution reflect a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Just as important, the team treated our home with real care and respect at every stage. The site was well maintained, and the work was carried out with a level of professionalism you don't always find. Paint Lab is an outstanding firm that delivers both technical excellence and aesthetic sensitivity. We would absolutely work with Bair and his team again and recommend them wholeheartedly to other co-op owners looking for a high-quality, design-driven result.

The day of painting he let us know he was there and when he was done (we were out of town). He finished work the next day on time just as he said. Everything looks great and there was nothing I had to clean up. They really did a professional job that I wish was the standard for anybody doing work. Also, he came in at the low end of estimates, so his prices are definitely reasonable. My only gripe is he said we are a little farther out than he would like to do again. Hopefully if we need more paint work, I can talk him back into coming to Forest Hills!
