What is Pushkin & Gogol? 

P&G is art handling service based in Dallas, Texas. We also really like esoteric literature :)  
How high should I hang my paintings? I heard a 60 in. center is standard.

Generally, if we are to decide on a height to hang a painting, we make sure that the painting looks good relative to the space it is in and the other objects occupying that space. So 60 in. center may work in one room but it could feel too short or too tall in others. In residential spaces, a general range is between a 56 and 64 in. center.  
While you’re here... can you...?

When scheduling a projekt with Pushkin & Gogol, please provide us with the full scope of the job. We don’t like disappointing, so when we are done installing x works and then there are a few more we didn’t plan on, that really grinds our gears, but you would never know, becasue we are kind and forthcoming about our ability to perform the additional work (stipulations existing) or if we need to rescheudle.   
It’s just one lil thing, can I just pay for one hour for one person? 

The two hour minimum stands on all jobs.  
I would like to book two hours for one art handler to install a few things? One of those is a painting in a stairwell... 

When booking an installation, two handlers are generally required for the job. This is mainly for liability, care and to provide the best quality work. When we are asked for one handler and the small work turns out to be 6ft square, this is very awkward.
