Painting Older Homes in The Annex

Restoring interiors in The Annex requires a deep respect for “Annex Style” Richardsonian Romanesque and Victorian architecture. Unlike modern renovations, these century homes feature original horsehair plaster, hand-carved oak wainscoting, and decorative crown moldings that demand a master’s touch.

Protection of Historic Wood & Brick: We treat your original hardwood floors and exposed brick with the utmost care. Using heavy-duty shielding and our Festool dustless system, we ensure that our restoration work leaves your home’s character intact and mess-free.
Modernizing Heritage Kitchens: We can update your historic home without a full demolition. Our specialized kitchen cabinet painting and refinishing allows you to keep your home’s vintage charm while achieving a factory-new, durable finish.

FAQ: Heritage Painting in The Annex

Q: Can you repair original plaster ceilings without replacing them with drywall?

This allows us to restore structural integrity while maintaining the home’s historical character. Once stabilized, surfaces are prepared for our interior painting services in Toronto, ensuring a durable and seamless finish.

Q: How do you handle old paint that may contain lead?

Many homes in The Annex contain historical paint layers that require careful handling. We follow strict HEPA dust control and containment procedures to safely manage and remove old coatings, protecting both the property and its occupants. This process is integrated into both our interior and exterior painting and restoration services.
