Interior & Exterior Painting services in Tribeca
Tribeca is a loft neighborhood. Its buildings began as 1800s warehouses and store-and-loft buildings with cast-iron and masonry fronts, and most are now large condo and co-op apartments. Inside, that means ceilings of twelve feet or more, cast-iron columns, exposed brick, timber beams, sprinkler pipes and very long walls. High work needs scaffolding or rolling towers, and wide walls lit from one side by tall windows show any lap mark or patch, so surface prep and an even finish matter a great deal. Many owners want fine cabinet finishes and dark accent colors, which need extra coats. Buildings commonly ask for a certificate of insurance and book the freight elevator. Outside, cast-iron fronts, metal canopies, loading dock doors and window frames need rust treated and primed. Much of Tribeca is landmarked, so exterior colors are controlled.

Building and landmark rules
Painting does not need a Department of Buildings permit in New York City. Most of the neighborhood is covered by the four Tribeca historic districts. On a landmarked building, changing an exterior color or painting bare masonry needs a permit from the Landmarks Preservation Commission first. Interior painting of an apartment does not.
