Cleveland Park’s homes span from the 1890s through the 1940s — all built well before the 1978 federal ban on lead-based paint. Lead paint is likely on original wood trim, built-in bookcases, porch components, window casings, and staircase elements throughout homes on Connecticut Avenue, Newark Street, Ordway Street, and Sedgwick Street.
Under the EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule and DC’s Lead Hazard Prevention and Elimination Act of 2008, any contractor disturbing paint in pre-1978 homes must follow lead-safe work practices. HomePro DMV Painters is EPA RRP certified. On every Cleveland Park project involving original surfaces, our painters follow full lead-safe protocols: containment barriers, wet methods, HEPA vacuuming, proper disposal, and clearance testing when required.

Before: A 1918 Arts and Crafts bungalow on Newark Street with peeling plaster walls, yellowed built-in bookcases, chipped crown molding, and a weathered front porch. The original lead paint on wood trim was flaking throughout. The homeowner wanted to honor the home’s Craftsman character while brightening every room for modern living.
After: Our Cleveland Park painting team stabilized all plaster, followed EPA lead-safe protocols on every original surface, and applied two coats of Benjamin Moore Regal Select throughout. The built-in bookcases gleam in BM White Dove semi-gloss. Crown molding and wood trim were caulked, primed, and painted to crisp perfection. The spacious front porch received new floor paint and fresh white ceiling and column finishes. Total project time: 6 days. Backed by our 2-year written warranty.
Scope: Full interior of a 3,200 sq ft Colonial Revival home on Ordway Street near Connecticut Avenue — 7 rooms, formal dining room with wainscoting, original plaster throughout, crown molding on every floor, built-in bookcases in the study, and a front portico with columns.
Challenge: Extensive plaster cracking on the second floor, lead paint on all original wood trim and window casings, and a formal dining room that needed deep jewel-tone color above white raised-panel wainscoting.
Solution: Our painting crew skim-coated and stabilized plaster, followed full EPA RRP lead-safe protocols, and applied Farrow & Ball Hague Blue above crisp BM Chantilly Lace wainscoting in the dining room. Every room received two coats of premium paint. The portico columns were sanded, primed, and finished in high-gloss for maximum durability. Completed in 8 days with a 2-year written warranty. The homeowners called it “the best investment we’ve made in this house.”
