Painting and Restoration Project on this Alameda, CA Victorian.
Signature Painting and Construction is well known for its painting and construction services catering towards Victorian restoration projects. Here is a project we recently completed on 1349 Regent Street in Alameda, CA. This Victorian needed both extensive wood replacement and a full and thorough preparation prior to painting. A lot of the detailed wood pieces needed to be milled, all of which we did in house. Most carpenters and painters will have to get this milled decorative pieces from specialty lumber stores where they are very expensive. We are able to save our clients a significant amount of money be performing this type of work in house. This house had not been painted in over 15 years so the preparation was extremely extensive. For two weeks our crew scraped and sanded all the loose or peeling areas of paint to give the home the uniform and protected look it has now. We also had to bondo certain areas for cosmetic purposes. After the house was completely prepped out our painters applied a full oil-based primer on all surfaces and we then applied two coats of Benjamin Moore’s premium exterior paint. This house will look beautiful and be protected for many years to come.

We Love Victorians!
Alameda, California is well known for its maritime history, a history which has produced some of the most beautiful old homes imaginable. The island in the Bay is full of century old wooden homes, built by master craftsmen, many of whom were also ship builders. Being a painting contractor in the Bay Area allows Signature Painting to take on projects that many contractors in other places dream of. The restoration we are currently doing on this 1892 Victorian home is a major undertaking, but just the type of project that we really enjoy doing. A project like this takes meticulous preparation to ready the aging wood surfaces for paint, we’re looking forward to keeping you posted on our progress. Check back next week to see the progress Signature Painting has made on this beautiful Alameda Victorian home.
