About PaintLab
We're a small New York painting company specializing in residential interiors.
Before focusing on painting, our experience included interior design, construction, and residential renovation. Today, PaintLab provides interior painting, wall preparation, wallpaper, and specialty finishes.

We have a small team of experienced painters who work with us regularly and know our standards and approach to the work.
We try to keep the process simple: a clear scope of work, straightforward pricing, careful preparation, and a clean job site.

Most of our projects are apartments and homes in Manhattan, with additional work in nearby Brooklyn and Queens.
We're licensed and insured and familiar with the access, scheduling, and insurance requirements of New York residential buildings.
Locations We Cover
PaintLab provides professional interior painting and wall finishing services throughout Manhattan, as well as select areas of Brooklyn and Queens. We work in apartments, townhouses, lofts, condos, and co-op buildings.

Our services include interior painting, wall and ceiling preparation, skim coating, drywall repair, wallpaper removal and installation, and limewash finishes. We handle projects ranging from a single room to a complete apartment repaint. Our team works carefully, keeps the space clean, and follows building requirements and agreed schedules.

Materials & brands we work with

We work with established paint and finish brands and select materials based on the surface, finish, and requirements of each project.
