Neighborhoods We Serve in Del Ray

Del Ray’s streets along and off Mount Vernon Avenue are lined with bungalows, Victorians, and cottages , many built between 1910 and 1940. The neighborhood rewards a bolder palette, and the older construction means prep work matters: stripping, sanding, and priming layered paint before a new coat goes on.

The labor carries a five-year guarantee.

Bungalows and cottages with front porches and detailed trim. Saturated exterior colors , deep greens, blues, and reds , are common here and done well.

Slightly newer bungalows and Cape Cods. Interior refreshes are popular as owners update kitchens, dining rooms, and primary bedrooms.

Victorian-influenced homes with decorative trim profiles. Exterior work here often requires careful scraping and wood stabilizer before new paint is applied.

The densest concentration of pre-war construction. We match original trim profiles and advise on historically appropriate color combinations when requested.

Frequently Asked Questions

What an interior repaint costs comes down to the condition of the surfaces, the prep level we agree on, how much trim there is, whether the color is changing, and access. We price it on site, for free, and put it in writing. Exterior cost follows the substrate and its condition, the prep level, the number of stories and how much painted trim, soffit and fascia the house carries. We look at it on site and put the number in writing, at no charge. Every estimate is itemized.

Two to four weeks during peak season (April through October), one to two weeks off-season. We can sometimes move faster if a slot opens.

Yes. We work with original millwork on pre-war Del Ray homes regularly. We can advise on period-appropriate colors, match existing profiles with caulk and filler where needed, and recommend the right primer system for surfaces with decades of paint history.

Sherwin-Williams, For Del Ray exteriors we often specify

Yes. Class A contractor with general liability and workers’ compensation insurance. The labor on all painting projects we complete is guaranteed for five years, covering peeling and flaking. Settlement cracks are repaired properly at the time but are not covered, because nobody can stop a house from settling, and the guarantee does not apply to deck or fence staining.

Most exterior projects take five to ten working days. Del Ray homes with prep-intensive original trim may add a day. Interior projects on a similar home usually run four to seven days.

April through early June and September through late October are our preferred exterior windows. Summer humidity slows cure times. Winter freeze-thaw cycles make exterior work unreliable. We book interior work year-round.

Our crew handles the heavy lifting: pressure washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, primer, drywall patching, and moving lightweight furniture. You clear personal items and breakables. We protect everything else.
