Painters in Ritchie, Edmonton
One accent wall or the whole exterior, Tabmatch sends your painting request to approved local painters and shows you who can take it.
Ritchie is a south-side neighbourhood east of Old Strathcona that has become a popular spot for local shops and cafes.
Painting for homes in Ritchie
Older cottages and bungalows are being joined by a wave of new infill houses and garden suites.
Older homes may have lead paint under newer layers, since it was common before the 1960s, so scraping and sanding need proper containment. Plaster walls also need different prep than drywall.
Infill homes next to older houses often want exterior colours that suit the street; a painter can put up samples first.
Detached garages along the lane often have the most weathered siding and doors on the property, and make a good small exterior job.
Basement rec rooms from earlier renovations are often due for a refresh, and washable finishes hold up best down there.
