Adam did an amazing job painting the upstairs apartment in my two family house in Brooklyn, prior to me moving in. He's a pleasure to work with and lends a particular attention to detail, stemming from his background in fine art painting, that i find rare in most contractors. He offered lots of advice in terms of paint types, colors, finishes, etc but was always willing to give me whatever i wanted at the end of the day. In addition to the painting i had him restore and refinish the entryway to my home, including the exterior door, the surrounding exterior door frame, the interior original antique wooden door (which had layers upon layers of old paint on it from over the years). he removed, stripped and replaced all the original doorknobs and hardware on all the doors inside the apartment during thre painting process, and when pieces were missing, he sourced original hardware parts from salvage yards to make all the doors fully funtioning. His knowledge and appreciation of original home details and antiques really brought back to life many aspects of my home which had been lost over the years through neglect. I feel like my house has increased in value due to the careful work Adam did in bringing these details back. i would give him my highest recommendation to others and would certainly use him again for any job i needed done.
