From mid-rise and high-rise multifamily developments to townhome communities, senior living, and hospitality, MPA Painters delivers high-quality architectural finishes for leading builders and developers across the Tri State Area.
Your finishing trade should be your greatest ally.
Prime. Finish. Walk. Sign. Next floor.
Every delay on a building lands on the painter. Drywall runs late. Inspections slip. The PM changes twice. The turnover date does not move an inch. Most painters soak up that chaos and hand it back to you as excuses.
Not us. Crews scale up by building and roll out of one yard in Elizabeth in our own vans. Scope and readiness get settled with your super before we show up. Material is bought and price-locked the day we bid. Every floor is walked three times before you ever see it. That is why about ninety percent of our work comes from GCs who have already finished a building with us.
When the market ran short, our clients never waited.
Through the 2020 to 2022 supply crunch, MPA's projects kept their schedules. Years of planning with Sherwin-Williams and a habit of buying ahead of the job meant the material was on our shelves while competitors were calling around for it. Being prepared, on our side and our suppliers', is part of the bid.
We went W-2 before the state made everyone do it.
In 2022 we rebuilt the field around direct W-2 employment, a pay scale everyone can see, real HR policy, and promotion from within. Turnover now runs well below the industry norm. That is a commitment that runs both ways: the company to its people, and the people to the company and the buildings they finish.
We arrive in our own vans, stocked.
Crews roll out of Elizabeth in a company fleet of Ford Transit vans loaded with spray rigs and material staged from Sherwin-Williams, so a floor never waits on a delivery. Every van is on a service and inspection schedule in our own fleet system.
Field and office, connected in real time.
GPS-tracked vehicles, connected scheduling and project systems, and a shared Microsoft 365 workspace tie every crew leader, PM, and estimator together. The office sees progress, material, and site conditions the same day. Your team gets answers from people who already have them.
Management shows up.
Ownership and operations leadership are in the field on a set cadence. A new PM is never left alone with a difficult super. You see the top of the company, not just the crew.
What we do
One contractor. One schedule. Our own crews.
Pre-construction estimating
We break the spec down by substrate, product, and sheen, then hand the field color-coded finish prints you can check against. Pricing gets locked with the manufacturer the day we bid.
Units, corridors, stairs, amenity spaces, back-of-house. Every sheen from flat to high gloss, plus wallpaper and wallcovering. We spray the prime and first coats for coverage and finish by hand for the line.
Doors, railings, balconies, soffits, and site elements on buildings we are already inside. Every sheen, every substrate, exterior-grade coatings as specified.
Venetian plaster, epoxy, limewash and lime slurry, marking paint and line coating, murals, specialty paints, custom colors. If the spec calls for it, we do it.
Headquartered in Elizabeth. Working across the tri-state area.
Crews roll out of New Jersey to jobs across New York and Pennsylvania. If your building is in the tri-state area, odds are we have finished one down the road.
