WELCOME TO Day One Custom Painting & Renovations

Remodeling Contractors and Painters in Newburgh, NY

Newburgh is where Day One Custom Painting & Renovations calls home, and it shows in how well we know this city. Perched on a hillside above the Hudson, Newburgh holds one of the largest historic districts in the country, block after block of 19th-century brick and stone rowhouses, ornate Victorians, and grand old homes in various states of care and restoration. Alongside that historic core sit working neighborhoods, commercial corridors, and newer development on the edges. It is a city with extraordinary bones and real complexity, and we have worked it since 1974, handling painting, kitchen and bath remodels, flooring, carpentry, and the plumbing and electrical that a serious renovation requires.


No other place in our service area rewards experience quite like Newburgh does. Restoring a century-old rowhouse means dealing with plaster, old masonry, layered paint, and detail that modern shortcuts simply cannot reproduce. At the same time, the city's rental properties and commercial spaces need efficient, durable, budget-aware work. We move between both because this is our own backyard, and we have been doing it for five decades.


We are locally owned and based right here, not a franchise and not an out-of-town outfit. When your contractor's roots are in the same city as your project, the accountability is built in.

Low-VOC and eco-friendly paint options for a safer home environment

We take the time to properly prepare each surface, ensuring a clean, even, and polished result that you’ll love for years to come.

Residential and Commercial Remodeling in Newburgh, NY

Remodeling in Newburgh ranges from carefully restoring a historic rowhouse to preparing a rental unit or fitting out a commercial space downtown. We keep the entire project in-house, which matters enormously on older buildings where one stage constantly affects the next.


  • Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling
  • Flooring Installation and Replacement
  • Drywall, Trim, and Finish Carpentry
  • Plumbing and Electrical Upgrades
  • General Home Renovation and Repairs

  • Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling

    In Newburgh's older homes, kitchens and baths are often cramped, dated, and squeezed into floor plans from another century. We rework them for modern living while respecting the character of the building, whether that means a full gut or a careful update.


    • Custom cabinetry and smarter layouts
    • New countertops and backsplash installation
    • Updated fixtures and improved lighting
    • Tile work, flooring, and moisture protection
    • Full bathroom gut renovations or small-space reworks

    We plan the sequence carefully, which is essential in older structures where surprises hide behind every wall.

  • Flooring Installation and Replacement

    Newburgh's historic homes often hide beautiful original wood floors worth restoring, and plenty of worn-out flooring worth replacing. We handle both, plus durable, cost-effective options for rentals and commercial spaces.


    • Hardwood and engineered wood
    • Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and tile
    • Ceramic, porcelain, and laminate
    • Old flooring removal and subfloor prep
    • Trim and threshold finishing

    Older subfloors need real attention, and we give it, because a good floor depends on what lies beneath it.

  • Drywall, Trim, and Finish Carpentry

    This is where Newburgh's architecture truly tests a contractor. Matching ornate historic molding, restoring original casings, and blending new millwork into century-old detail is demanding work, and it is exactly what our crew specializes in.


    • Drywall hanging, patching, and repair
    • Crown molding, baseboards, and window trim
    • Custom shelving, built-ins, and decorative millwork
    • Interior door and casing updates

    Whether we are restoring period trim or building new to match, the finish is meant to stand beside the original and hold up.

  • Plumbing and Electrical Upgrades

    Old buildings almost always need their plumbing and wiring modernized, and doing it within the same renovation is safer and more efficient. Our licensed pros bring these systems up to code as part of the larger job.


    • Lighting design and fixture upgrades
    • Electrical panel improvements and new outlets
    • Plumbing for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms
    • Code-compliant, energy-saving updates

    Everything meets current code and integrates cleanly with the rest of the work, without tearing up more of a historic home than necessary.

  • General Home Renovation and Repairs

    Maintaining Newburgh's older buildings involves constant work that resists neat categories, from structural repairs to comfort and efficiency upgrades. We take those projects on across homes, rentals, and commercial properties.


    • Layout changes and reconfigurations
    • Closet and storage improvements
    • Attic and basement refinishing
    • Insulation, ventilation, and energy upgrades

    Bring us whatever is on your list, and we will give you a straight, experienced read on how we can help.

Interior and Exterior Painting in Newburgh, NY

Painting a Newburgh building, especially a historic one, is skilled work. Old surfaces, layered paint, masonry, and elaborate exterior detail all demand real preparation. We take each step in order and choose products that protect the building and honor its look.


  • Interior Painting
  • Exterior Painting
  • Residential and Commercial Painting

  • Interior Painting

    Historic interiors mean plaster walls, tall ceilings, and detailed trim that need proper prep before a new coat. We do that groundwork so the finish is smooth, clean, and true to the character of the room.


    • Walls, ceilings, and trim
    • Cabinet and built-in refinishing
    • Basement painting and concrete sealing
    • Drywall prep, patching, and priming
    • Low-VOC and premium paint options available

    We protect the space and its details, work cleanly, and return the room ready to enjoy.

  • Exterior Painting

    Newburgh's exteriors are some of the most demanding anywhere in our service area. Historic wood siding and ornate trim, hillside exposure, and river-driven moisture all conspire against a paint job that has not been properly prepped. Done right, though, the results are striking and long-lasting.


    • Wood, vinyl, fiber cement, and metal siding
    • Shutters, window trim, and entryways
    • Fences, decks, and porches
    • Power washing, sanding, and priming
    • Weather-resistant finishes for long-term protection

    We wash, scrape, sand, and prime with the patience these buildings require, then finish with durable coatings that hold their color against the weather coming off the Hudson.

  • Residential and Commercial Painting

    From historic homes and rental units to downtown offices and storefronts, we bring the same disciplined approach across the city, scheduled to keep disruption low for residents and businesses alike.


    • Tenant-ready units and investment properties
    • Office interiors and retail storefronts
    • High-traffic, high-visibility areas
    • Brand-consistent color coordination

    We show up when promised and leave a clean, finished space, whether it is a family's home or a working storefront.
