Painting homes in Pelham
The Village of Pelham sits in the Town of Pelham between Mount Vernon to the west and New Rochelle to the east. The original village was incorporated in 1896, and the Village of North Pelham merged into it in 1975. It is a compact, closely built suburb, with roughly 2,800 housing units per square mile at the 2000 census.
Older houses with wood siding, porches and plaster interiors need careful work. Prep and plaster repair often take as long as the painting itself, and lead-safe work practices apply to most of the housing stock.
When you send a request from Pelham, we pass it to an independent painting contractor who works in your area. The contractor contacts you, looks at the house and gives you a written estimate. Sending a request is free and you are under no obligation to hire.
Before you hire, check that the painter holds a Westchester County home improvement license from the Department of Consumer Protection, and ask for proof of insurance. If your Pelham home was built before 1978, ask whether the company is EPA Lead-Safe Certified, which federal rules require for paid work that disturbs old paint.
Exterior painting in Westchester County usually runs from late spring through early fall. Interior work can be booked any time of year. Ask for estimates early if you want a summer exterior slot.
To get started, use the estimate form and tell us the type of work, the rough size of the house or rooms and anything you have noticed, such as peeling paint, soft trim or water stains. Clear details help the painter come prepared.
