When Maudie S. hired Green Apple Painting a second time to tackle her 100-year-old Queens colonial, the project stretched beyond two months and well past ordinary painting. The crew replaced hinges, repaired casement windows, applied skim coats to multiple rooms, and addressed water-damaged ceilings from two separate leaks. She described owner Fredi Borjas as "a gentleman, and a delight to work with," noting that he "sets the tone for how his team works."
Fredi, a second-generation painter, built Green Apple Painting into a full-service Long Island and New York City operation with a specialty in high-end interior work, wallpaper installation, cabinet refinishing, skim coating, and commercial painting. Crew member Leo handles wallpaper installation, which ranges from straightforward removals to complex custom work.
The fully bonded team serves Nassau and Suffolk County communities including Plainview, Manhasset, Syosset, Huntington, and Garden City, as well as New York City. Green Apple Painting promotes eco-friendly Low VOC and No VOC paint options across all residential and commercial projects.
