Roosevelt neighborhood exterior repaint in Bellingham, WA—restored cedar siding and crisp trim after a full lead-safe repaint.

Roosevelt Neighborhood Exterior House Painting

A full exterior repaint of a 30-year rental in Bellingham’s Roosevelt neighborhood. Peeling layers, weathered trim, and failing coatings meant we scraped so much paint off that it made more sense to fully prime the entire house before any finish coats went on. With proper lead-safe prep and a complete oil primer, this repaint is set up to protect the cedar siding and bring the home’s character back for years to come.
