FAQ
Do you charge anything for the estimates?
No, all the estimates are done at no cost. We do on-site estimates and virtual estimates. Schedule an estimate by calling us at 201-777-0067 or filling the estimate request form.
What’s included in each quote?
We cover all the floors and furniture to protect it from the paint. We’ll also repair all the screw holes and dents at no additional charge.
What’s not included in each quote?
Skim-coating - making the walls smooth before painting is labor-intensive process. While we will fix all the screw holes and dents, we will not make your walls absolutely perfect before painting. If skim-coating is what you need, please discuss in advance.
What brands of paint do you use?
We typically use paints by Benjamin Moore. As per New York Times, Regal Select paints are the best for coverage, durability and color selection. We can also use paints from Sherwin Williams and other brands.
Do I have to get the paint myself or will you get it for me?
For Benjamin Moore & Sherwin Williams paints, you just need to tell us what paint you would like us to get and we’ll pre-order and deliver it at no additional charge. Because paint is not returnable, we always estimate on the lower end, then get 1-2 more gallons if needed. If you prefer to use paints from other brands, you would need to pre-order and get the paints yourself.
How do I select paint color, sheen & grade?
Please refer to our paint selection guide.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept everything: cash, credit cards, debit cards, checks, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, etc. Note that our prices assume automatic 3% discount if you pay by anything other than the credit cards. In other words, if you pay with credit cards, you will end up paying 3% more that we collect but that goes straight to the banks.
Do I need to schedule painting in advance?
We are typically booked a few weeks in advance, so we do recommend contacting us as soon as possible.
Do you do lime-washing?
Yes, lime-washing has become very popular recently, we do lime-washing jobs every few weeks. We have several painters fully trained to do lime-washing properly. You would need to select and pre-order lime-wash from BauwerkColour. Note that because lime-washing properly requires a prep-coat and because lime wash would need to be applied manually using a special technique, lime-washing is a slow and labor-intensive painting process. Please read more about lime-washing here.
Do you paint kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities?
Yes, we paint kitchen cabinets both manually and by using a spray-gun. Please read more about painting kitchen cabinets here.
Do you do commercial painting?
Most of our jobs are interior residential painting projects, but we’d be happy to provide a quote for your commercial space too.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Hoboken, Jersey City, Weehawken, Union City, West New York, Bayonne, Hudson county and other cities and counties in North New Jersey.
Are you insured?
Yes, we carry a comprehensive liability insurance and workers compensation insurance. If your building requires a COI, we will get it for you at no additional charge, but please let us know in advance as getting a COI requires 1-2 business days.
What guarantee do you offer?
We offer 101% satisfaction guarantee. This means we will work hard to make sure you that you are not only satisfied with our service, but would also consider referring us to your family and friends.
