Interior & Exterior Painting services in Dormont
Dormont is a compact borough on the light rail line just south of the city. It was built up fast in the early 1900s as a streetcar suburb, and most of its houses date from before 1940. Brick foursquares and tall frame houses sit close together on narrow lots, each with a covered front porch, wood columns, wood trim and often original windows. Inside, the walls and ceilings are plaster and the woodwork is thick with old coats. Paint this old very often includes lead, so scraping and sanding must follow lead-safe methods. Tight side yards make ladder and staging work slower than on an open lot. Porch floors, steps and railings take the worst of the rain, snow and road salt and need repainting more often than the rest. We paint homes and storefronts throughout Dormont.

HOA and local rules
Painting itself does not normally need a building permit. The Borough of Dormont building and zoning office can confirm that for your address. Federal lead-safe rules apply to paid work that disturbs old paint in homes built before 1978.
