Frequently Asked Questions
Wall to wall help
A real wall is permanently attached to the floor, walls and ceiling with fasteners creating an extremely messy and expensive repair cost when removed. The owner would also have to hire an architect to file the changes with the Department of Buildings, which also significantly increases the price of the project. A pressurized wall does not have any fasteners or adhesives to hold the wall in place, hence no damage is done to the apartment.
Absolutely Amazing! They look unbelievably like the real walls in the apartment. With your help we can match your baseboards and paint color. Your guests will never know there is an artificial wall in your apartment.
Approximately 4-5 hours total time in the apartment pending on the size and amounts of walls to be installed.
If the ceilings are concrete slab, textured (commonly known as popcorn,) plaster/lathe, tin or drywall, we can install the wall without hesitation.

Yes, we can install while you are moving. However, it is not optimal as we need to have at least 4 feet of space to work and the team will not be able to cover all your possessions as they are brought in. Let's avoid the chaos, moving is stressful enough.
You have a limit of 30 lbs per side on a pressurized wall. We do not suggest you do shelving or television mounts on our wall without consulting us first. We can also add additional frame and backing to support heavier objects.
Walls are painted with two coats of Benjamin Moore White Paint in a flat finish. Custom colors or finishes such as eggshell, Low/Zero VOC paints are charged accordingly or you may paint the partition yourself with any color and finish you like. You do not have to repaint the wall to white.
No problem at all, our efficient crews can walk up the materials for a fee.
You can provide us with images of the space and/or a floor plan with a simple sketch of the wall placement by uploading to our quote form or via email at [email protected]. One of our competent sales staff will assist you for a free no obligation estimate.
We can install sound reducing materials in our pressurized walls. We offer options such as Green Glue, QuietRock drywall and Sound Attenuating Fire Batts.

You must, by contractual obligations, contact us directly no less than FOUR (4) weeks prior to the desired removal date. Keep in mind, during May thru October, the more notice we have, the more likely you are to get the date that works best for you.
No. Since the floors and ceilings are not consistently level, they cannot be transferred from one location to another. We can however utilize a majority of the material and offer a better rate the second time around.
There is no refundable deposit taken.
MPW reserves the right to transfer the lease of our pressurized partition to any future occupants, owners or managements for a fee pending on the product. Several NYC management companies request that the wall be removed regardless of the request. This can only be determined on an individual basis.
The lease is for a period of up to 2 years, after which you may extend after that if needed. The 3rd and 4th year’s lease extension fee can be found on your agreement.
