HISTORIC HOME PAINTING FAQ

What is EPA Lead-Safe Certification?

EPA Lead-Safe Certification means our firm and painters are trained in proper lead-safe work practices. We follow strict protocols to contain dust, protect occupants, and safely handle materials in pre-1978 homes where lead paint may be present.

How do I know if my home has lead paint?

Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint—the older the home, the more likely. We can perform testing or work with certified inspectors to assess your home. Regardless, we follow lead-safe protocols on all pre-1978 projects.

Is lead-safe painting more expensive?

Lead-safe work does require additional preparation, containment, and cleanup procedures. However, our 10% discount for historic homes helps offset these costs while ensuring your family’s safety and health.

Can you match historic paint colors?

Yes! We can help you select period-appropriate colors or match existing historic colors. We work with premium paint manufacturers who offer historic color palettes, and we can also custom-match any color you desire.
