Coming to the Rescue in Kensington

Last Updated: January 17, 2014

This project was unique in that the homeowners had hired a part-time painter to restore their home exterior, but after starting the project, the painter never showed up again. Unfortunately, you would be suprised to learn how frequently this happens. So the family asked us to complete the job, which we were happy to do!

Our lead painter on this project was Veirnon, who did an excellent job repairing the poorly-started job and restoring the home to beauty!

Project Description

This classic stucco home in Kensington needed repair on the stucco, the wood window sills and the porch columns, as well as general exterior painting. We also did some general interior work in the Kitchen and Master Bedroom.
