Exterior repaints of early-1900s homes and rental refresh projects are our most common U District work.

Area Overview
The University District blends stately early-1900s homes, classic brick apartments, and rentals serving the UW community. Phinney Ridge Painting serves the U District with exterior painting, interior painting, and carpentry repairs — lead-safe practices on the area's many older houses and efficient turnarounds for landlords and homeowners alike.
We understand that each project is unique, and we tailor our services to meet your specific requirements.
EPA Lead-Safe Certified

We use the best paints and materials available to ensure a vibrant, long-lasting finish that withstands the test of time and PNW weather conditions.
Certified Lead Painters
EPA only requires one employee to be certified, but we go beyond requirements and send every site lead to get individually certified to ensure all of our projects are conducive to EPA lead-safe standards.
We Do It Right
From the scraping and washing process, to the application of finish coats - we will take the utmost care to contain and properly dispose of lead paint chips and debris during your project.
Use Low VOC Products
We use no or low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) paints and products when possible to ensure the safety of our clients and employees.

Is Phinney Ridge Painting lead-safe certified for older homes in the University District?
Yes. The U District's Craftsman homes and early-1900s houses — many now rentals — routinely predate 1978 and may contain lead-based paint. Phinney Ridge Painting individually certifies every site lead to EPA RRP standards, so every University District project meets lead-safe requirements from start to finish.
