Careful work for Oakwood's early 20th century homes and detailed trim.

01 / Painting in Oakwood

Oakwood homes.

Oakwood, just south of Dayton along Far Hills Avenue, is known for its early 20th century homes on large, tree-shaded lots. Tudor, Colonial Revival and other period styles line its streets, and the city is home to Hawthorn Hill, the house Orville Wright built.

Homes of this age usually have plaster walls, wood windows with many panes, built-ins and detailed trim. Those features are worth protecting. Plaster cracks need proper repair before paint, old trim needs careful sanding and caulk, and window sashes need neat cutting in. A painting company used to period trim and plaster will treat those details as part of the job, not an afterthought.

Weather and paint in Oakwood

Oakwood's tall trees shade a lot of siding and roofs, so some exterior surfaces stay damp and grow mildew. We wash and let those surfaces dry before painting, and we plan exterior work for dry days when the paint can cure properly.

04 / FAQs

Oakwood FAQs.

Can you repair cracked plaster before painting?

Yes. Plaster cracks are common in older Oakwood homes, and they need to be repaired and primed before paint or they will show through.

How do you handle detailed trim and wood windows?

With extra prep time. Old trim and window sashes are cleaned, sanded and caulked, then painted by hand so the detail stays crisp.
