Historic Columbia-neighborhood home in Bellingham, WA with restored trim, original windows, and a fresh exterior repaint.

This project tightened up the original windows and trim with lead-safe scraping, epoxy wood repair where the substrate needed it, oil/alkyd bonding primer, and a urethane-acrylic trim topcoat built to hold its line through Bellingham winters.
