    Not 1 but now 2 cats;but at least I did get some of my posters up pn the nice ,new clean walls!

    Larry came in to repair and paint over the damage done by the moron upstairs fromme ,having flooded my kitchen for the second time in a year. Ended up having to have not only the kitchen doorway and ceiling done but the living room and dinette aeas as well. I chose the colors and they did the rest. Very fair and reasonable pricing.If you're going to do it,then do it right.And Larry and his guys know what to do. Great team of efficent and polite workers ,as is Larry himself.Helped me move some of the heavy breakfronts which is not his job or responsibility but I have been dealing with injuries so they were very kind and helped me out. My only problem is that the walls look so good,I dread attempting STILL,to take a hammer and nail and take a bash at rehanging some of the pcitures I took down at the time! Want to come back and help me rehang them Larry??! Thanks again,Amy

    Let me start with telling you about myself. I have gut renovated 4 full apartments 2 condos and an out of state townhouse. I have had professionals and friends provide trade services. I have subcontracted painters both here in NY and out of state. After finding this painter on Yelp, he was one of three painters I received estimates from. Not the cheapest, but competitive. His estimate was by far the most professional and detailed. I liked him. One thing I have learned when hiring people to work in your home is that it must feel right. I was assured by the Yelp reviews that he would be great, but still hesitant I payed close attention. He wasn't great... he was AMAZINGLY BEYOND GREAT! I am extremely meticulous and detail oriented. So was he. He came with a well experienced crew. He enforced breaks, lunchtime and spoke to his workers with respect. Anyone who has had a crew work in their home knows inadvertently you will overhear things that may make you cringe..... not here. Peaceful work environment, super neat and respectful, As much as I hate spending money on home repairs ... he was worth every dollar spent (and I'm hoping to have him return to do the rooms we left out. There was no paint on my hardwood floors or cabinets... no spray anywhere, and no mistakes I had to correct. Too good to be true? Thankfully not, he operated the way I wish every independent business person would. Tell you what they will do, how much it will cost, then they do it the way they said, in the time they said and you are left as happy as I am. This was no small job, my ceilings are over 12 feet high... my skylight area needed sanding over a stairwell over 15 ft high.... Do NOT hesitate to hire this business!!!

    As a retired architect, I have had my share of experience with painters. Larry and his crew stand out as truely exceptional and I can highly recommend them. We restored a very dilapidated 100 year old house in Queens. Larry and his crew spent two weeks patching the crumbled plaster and fixing dozens of holes made for re-wiring, then painting the entire house. Their craftsmanship was excellent; undecernable patching, no overpainting, etc. His crew are very experienced professionals; one guy had 40 years in the trade. We had a very tight schedule with lots of overlapping trades. Larry stayed late several evenings to keep on track. And they did finish on time. Larry provided a detailed room by room quote that was competatively priced with other quotes we obtained. there were no added costs or surprises

    Larry The Painter & team painted the ceilings like PROS!

    Larry The Painter & his team are ROCKSTARS! Larry was quick to reply, professional, and brought up some important details about the project that I had not even considered. He has a lot of experience which is clear in his quality of work and he is very easy to communicate with. The team was on time, respectful, professional, kind, and quick! I looked for a lot of quotes for this project we hired Larry and I'm very happy with the experience & the turn out. Thank you Larry & Team!!

    I am very satisfied with Larry's paint job of my baby nursery! My husband and I had painted it, but being that we are not professional painters, the walls came out dark and dreary with lots of uneven streaks and blotches. Larry repainted the whole room as well as painted over my laminate brown wood baseboard trims. I also asked him to do a striped wall. I am impressed with how the colors came out. I had asked him for some input on new colors to use - I wanted lighter and brighter colors after the dark colors my husband and I used. Larry steered me in the right direction of colors that would go well together. I am happy with how the room looks. It's modern, calming, and bright! I am also happy with how Larry smoothed out one of the walls in the room. One part of the walls was covered with duct tape to block off a door that leads into another room. It is a bedroom that was converted from a dining room. Larry took off the old tape and put on new tape which smoothed out the color of the wall. It also made the door less visible. I would definitely ask for Larry again in the future if I need any other rooms painted. He was friendly, on time, and had good work ethic. He finished the job in one day and by the deadline that I had given him. He was also easy to communicate with through email/phone.

    (Before) Kitchen walls after I removed wallpaper
    Mike B.

    Larry and his crew (Tomas & Miguel) are Amazing!! Our 60 year old kitchen was in desperate need of an updating. (paint peeling from the ceiling - wallpaper removed - large cracks in the walls - cabinets needed painting and many more problems) Larry and his crew are extremely hard workers. The repair to the kitchen took 4 days. They started at 8AM (always on time) and left between 6PM and 7PM. Larry always took the time to explain what his plan of action was going to be on each day. Yes, there is still more work to be done (countertops - flooring - molding's - appliances) but we wouldn't be at this point in the update without Larry and his crews hard work. I highly recommend Larry The Painter. (LARRY) We changed the handles on the cabinets. Thank you again.

    This is after Larry and his team painted our kitchen cabinets and wall

(Every other person we emailed for a quote did the same. None came to visit, and with COVID I was cool with that.) His quote was consistent with most of the other highly rated folk we reached out to for quotes. What set him apart was his clear emails with detailed pricing. It was clear that he knew painting was expensive, and people imagine doing everything at once and think of it as all-or-nothing. His pricing model showed it was some-at-a-time. (We did go all in though :) ) He was very responsive on email and answered questions from the mundane to the esoteric with patience and clarity. He came the day before the job was supposed to start to drop off supplies and map out everything that was should happen with me and his team. His team was great, polite, and professional. The speed and quality of the work was amazing. Everyone was happy to answer questions and explain what was happening. For me, the true test was with an accident that happened. Relatively minor, but Damian took full ownership and made it right without any discussion. That is how you do it. He gave great advice throughout the process, and respected what I needed. Have already asked for quotes on additional spaces in the house. Highly recommend.

The work speaks for itself, and we are extremely satisfied and rightly so because we plan on staying here for the long haul.

We closed on a 2-bedroom unit which was in good condition, but certainly needed a bit of TLC. From meeting Alvy, as well as through multiple conversations prior to day 1, Alvy was very responsive and very honest in his professional opinions/advice. We hired them to get started during holiday week, in which they recommended we mark areas for them to address during the process. Alvy and his father began setting up/prepping 12/24, and we just saw the finished product yesterday for the year end 2019. Our expectations were all met and highly exceeded: from top to bottom ceiling, walls, base trims, and closets- it was everything we imagined for our new home. Alvy and his team also clean up the best that they could- and to be honest, it looked much better and cleaner than when we first got the unit! I would highly recommend Alvy and his team again for any paint work. Their professionalism and expertise is everything you could ask for in making your home, "yours."

Unfortunately, after that things have gone significantly downhill. When the painters left they pushed all of my living room furniture to the middle of the room and said when the crew came back the following week to paint the baseboards and install the doors they'd put everything back. That happened on March 22nd. Since then, week after week they keep promising to try to come back and week after week they are no shows. I even explained to them that our building is expected to have a freeze on construction projects this week due to an impending strike so can they please wrap up this job before then, and they said yes but are now not responding to emails. I hope they ultimately make good on their service contract and I will update this review if that happens. For now, please steer clear, fellow yelpers.

I have to say, they are the most professional, friendly and dedicated team of workers I have come across. I dealt with Wiggy initially over the phone and then Wiggy's dad and brother (Josh) were assigned to get the job done. I know re-grouting may not be an intense task for some, but for many (including myself) who are not as handy, its a serious job which needs to get done right. Let's just say, Mr. Handy NYC (Wiggy's dad and Josh) did an amazing job. Josh spent approximately 2 days to ensure the job was precise and flawless. Last but not least, they are reasonably priced and best part is that they are right down the street from where I live so I know down the line if/when I need other renovations done in my house, Mr. Handy NYC will be my go to folks!! Thanks again Mr. Handy NYC and I highly recommend them!!
