Safe and Healthy Living Environment
Your home should be a welcoming place where you feel safe and comfortable—and SFW Painting is committed to making your home environment as healthy as possible. If you have an older or historic home built before 1978, it may contain lead paint, which is known to present health hazards. SFW Painting provides professional Newcastle lead paint inspection and lead paint removal that enables you to rest at ease, knowing that your home is safe and lead-free.
Interior Painting
The interior painting process must be minimally disruptive to you and your family. As your Newcastle house painter, we will accommodate your busy schedule all year round—including the winter months.
Lead Paint Stabilization
Any home constructed before 1978 may have lead paint. In 1991 the EPA stated that lead-based paint is considered the “number one environmental threat to children’s health in the United States.”
Historic Home Restoration Contractor
Working on historical and vintage homes is a specialized skill set. Understanding the construction methods and materials used for these periods is crucial to these restorations. SFW Painting Contractor specializes in historical home restoration in Portland, Vancouver, and Seattle.
Lead Paint Inspection for Peace of Mind
In 1978 the Environmental Protection Agency banned the use of lead paint because it was shown to cause developmental disorders, learning disabilities and behavioral problems in children, as well as seizures, internal organ damage, anemia, and brain and nervous system impairments in adults. If your home was built before 1978, it’s a wise idea to have it inspected. SFW Painting provides a comprehensive Newcastle lead paint inspection, examining all layers of paint on the interior and exterior portions of your home, including the body and trim, eves and soffit and accent areas.
Highest Caliber Lead Paint Removal for A Healthy Home
SFW Painting is a Lead Safe Renovation Firm that has provided excellent and effective Newcastle lead paint removal for over a decade. We use state-of-the-art and environmentally sensitive lead paint removal techniques, such as UV scraping, electric paint shaving, lead encapsulation, and good old fashioned hand scraping.
