Historic Home Painters in Lexington and Concord, MA
All houses eventually become due for a paint job. But if your Lexington and Concord area home or property is an antique or historic one, that project won’t be just like any other. There are unique factors you’ll need to know before starting painting services on your home.
The Lexington and Concord area is known for it’s history. Some homes date back all the way to pre-Revolutionary War. And CertaPro Painters® of Lexington/Concord, MA are your local house painting experts in historic property restoration.
“I very much enjoy the area that we live in with older homes that are all around us. We love to help preserve and beautify,” said CertaPro Painters® of Lexington/Concord owner Ken Dow.
Two major factors that can come into play with painting or repairing older homes are lead paint and carpentry.
For homes built before 1978, they’ll likely contain lead-based paint, a heavy mercury-like substance that is a health hazard to humans. Fortunately, now that the dangers of latent lead-based paint have become public knowledge, the EPA is actively involved in creating stringent regulations that govern the renovation of older homes containing this substance. CertaPro Painters® of Lexington/Concord is EPA Lead Certified, so we can guarantee that lead-based paint debris is removed and handled in a way that is safe to your home and family, as well as our crew.
Your home may also need carpentry work done before painting. CertaPro can provide carpentry services to fix up siding, doors, or window frames on the exterior of your home, or the stairs, cabinets, or shelves in your home’s interior, and more.
