Painting West Chester homes
The borough is dense with 19th-century twins and row houses, Victorians with substantial trim and porch detail, and a great deal of painted brick. Outside the borough the stock shifts toward mid-century and newer suburban construction.
What that means for the paint
- Painted brick, once painted, has to stay painted — stripping it is rarely practical, so the right breathable masonry coating matters.
- Victorian porch columns, brackets and railings are high-detail and high-exposure; they fail first and need the most attention.
- Attached twins and rows mean tight access and shared walls, so protection of the neighbouring property is part of the job.

“Rankin Painting did a wonderful job painting the entirety of my home. From initial discussions on paint colors to final touches on the trim work, everything was done with professionalism and timeliness. My home is full of bold colors and the precision of Rankin Painting’s work is admired by visitors every time they come through my door.
