Reviews
The Stony Brook University area in the Town of Brookhaven includes the campus proper plus faculty, graduate, and off-campus student housing in the surrounding neighborhoods. Housing ranges from campus-adjacent apartment complexes and townhouses to single-family faculty homes in the surrounding Three Village area. Interior painting work covers the full range — turnover work on apartment and townhouse units, standard family-home repaints on faculty homes, and small commercial interior work. We spec Benjamin Moore Regal Select or Sherwin-Williams Emerald on walls, Advance on trim. Full interior repaints run 3-6 days on typical campus-area homes. Volume discounts for multifamily and turnover work.
Campus-area exteriors are a mix of apartment and townhouse complexes with HOA/managed exterior cycles, plus single-family homes on surrounding residential blocks. Exterior work focuses on trim, shutters, soffits, fascia, garage doors, and front doors — plus full-exterior cycles when siding needs refresh. Vinyl and aluminum can be refreshed with surface-appropriate 100% acrylic. Several miles inland from Long Island Sound, so modest salt exposure and 7-10 year paint life. Deck staining pairs with exterior cycles. Timing coordinated with academic calendar for university-adjacent properties and faculty housing — summer windows preferred.
