How it works

Rowhome-Ready Painting Across Philadelphia

Old plaster, lead-era prep, and tight rowhome facades need a careful pro, and three steps put one in front of you.

1

Outline the project

Photograph the brick-trim facade, the cracked century-old plaster, or a stairwell that needs careful prep, add your Philly ZIP, and choose a timeline. It takes about a minute online.
