Painting homes in White Plains
White Plains is the county seat of Westchester County. It was incorporated as a village in 1866 and as a city in 1916, and the Battle of White Plains was fought here in October 1776. The city mixes a dense downtown of apartment buildings and offices with residential neighborhoods such as Gedney Farms, Rosedale and the Highlands.
Painting requests here range from apartment and condo interiors to full exteriors on single-family homes in the southern part of the city, where the 10605 ZIP code is mostly single-family houses. For condos and co-ops, check building rules on contractors and insurance before scheduling.
When you send a request from White Plains, 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 White Plains 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.
