Hillsdale, New Jersey Β· Since 1986
Interior and exterior painting, wallpaper removal and installation, minor carpentry, crown molding, and trim. No job too big or small β from a whole house to a single door.
What we do
Brush, spray, or roller β plus the powerwashing, repairs, and prep that make a finish last.

01
From meticulous masking to flawless finishes, we transform living spaces with clean lines and a careful, low-mess process.

02
Weather-resistant coatings and thorough prep that protect curb appeal against the elements for years to come.

03
Hand-brushed work for deep coverage and a smooth finish on trim, doors, and detailed surfaces.

04
Airless spray for an ultra-smooth, even finish on large surfaces, cabinets, and modern siding.

05
Uniform coverage and expert texture that give walls a rich, consistent look throughout the home.

06
More than a rinse β we remove grit and mildew so paint and stain bond cleanly and last longer.

07
Tired wood brought back with premium stains and sealants that highlight grain and help prevent rot.

08
Specialized bonding primers restore faded aluminum to a durable, vibrant, like-new appearance.

09
We repair rot and replace trim before we paint, so the structure is as sound as the finish.

10
Precision installation and careful removal so walls stay undamaged and the pattern sits true.

Reviews
βWe have worked with Tom for many years for his painting jobs. His work is neat and clean - and his prices are very fair. Today he helped us by fixing a large hole in the wall behind our gas range - as we are having a new one installed tomorrow. We highly recommend him.β
βThomas power-washed and stained my deck. Did a professional job and had the best price. He is very knowledgeable and went the extra distance for me, by swapping out a busted board on one of my deck steps. Highly recommended for power-washing, staining, and painting.β
βExcellent Experience! Thomas came out to my house and gave me a quote for power washing my house that same day with very competitive pricing. He was at my house on time and he was there until the job was done. My house looks excellent! Highly recommend his services!β
