Historical Property Restoration in Branford, CT

In October of 2022, CertaPro Painters was contacted to refresh and restore this historical property in Branford, CT. While the home was in good shape, it suffered from peeling paint, minor wood damage, and other problems. After some caulking and window glazing, the property was finally fit for presentation. This property is classified among the Colonial Houses of Branford, and is located off South Prospect Street. If you or someone you know needs an old property repainted and revitalized in New Haven County, call the expert team here at CertaPro Painters of South Central, CT.


CHALLENGES:

Rather than a simple repaint, this project involved power washing and repairs before any work could begin.

Historic properties like this one require proper planning and communication to ensure the end product is faithful to the original.

For multi-story properties like these, CertaPro Painters has the experience and safety standards to get the job done right.

CONDITIONS: 

Peeling Paint – Especially along the bottom of the house, the white paint on the wood has largely peeled away, exposing the bare wood.
Dark Stains – This home hadn’t been power washed in a long time, and the exposed location left it vulnerable to dirt and dust buildup.
Faded Colors – A color consultation was essential beforehand to properly identify the new color to target.

PROJECT INVOLVEMENT

Preparations – The US Department of the interior records this property as among many others on the National Register of Historic Places, so we had to be careful to restore it to its original condition.
Repairs – Caulking and window glazing were essential before we got too deep into the rest of the project.
Painting – This multi-story property was painted from top to bottom by the experts at CertaPro Painters of South Central CT.

PROJECT TIMELINE – One Week
