Painters in Chadds Ford, PA
Chadds Ford sits at the western edge of where we work, and its Brandywine Valley housing needs a different approach from the boroughs to the east.
Rankin Painting is a family-owned painting contractor based in Aldan. Bob Rankin and his son Chris work Chadds Ford and the surrounding area, and have since 2010. Licensed, insured, and no subcontractors.
Painting Chadds Ford homes
Chadds Ford runs to stone and stucco farmhouses, colonials and converted historic structures scattered through the Brandywine Valley, mixed with newer construction on larger lots. Much of the older housing has masonry walls, deep-set wood windows and painted trim recoated many times over.
What that means for the paint
- Stone and stucco need breathable coatings. Trapping moisture behind an impermeable film is what causes spalling and blistering on masonry.
- Historic wood trim often carries many layers of old paint, so sound preparation and repair matter more than the finish coat.
- Wooded lots hold moisture and encourage mildew on north-facing elevations, which needs cleaning before anything is applied.
