PAINTING POWER IN BERLIN
Painting Contractor for Berlin Borough
Before it was Berlin, this area was called Long-a-Coming, named after a Lenape travel route between the shore and the Delaware River or, by another tradition, after a welcome stream at the head of the Great Egg Harbor River. The borough was formed from part of Berlin Township in 1927, and part of it lies within the Pinelands.
The 28-acre Berlin Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1995, covers streets like Washington, East Taunton and Haines avenues and parts of the White Horse Pike. It includes the 1860s Victorian John Westcott House with its cupola and the Queen Anne-style Raughley House. Painting Power serves Berlin Borough homeowners and businesses. Neighboring West Berlin has its own page.
LOCAL HOMES
Victorian Details and Pinelands-Edge Lots
Berlin's historic homes have Victorian and Queen Anne details like cupolas, brackets, spindlework and layered trim, and they need careful prep and a thoughtful color plan. Newer homes toward the edge of the borough sit closer to wooded, Pinelands-influenced land, where shade and moisture speed up mildew on siding and decks. We plan the prep around which of those your house is.
Weather and Exterior Paint in Berlin
Heavy tree cover keeps surfaces cool and moist, and needles, sap and pollen build up quickly. Our exterior prep here usually starts with a thorough wash and mildew treatment. We also watch the forecast closely, because shaded walls take longer to dry between coats.

LOCAL PAINTING FAQ
Questions About Painting in Berlin
Do you paint Victorian homes in the Berlin Historic District?
Yes. Decorative trim and older wood need patient scraping, priming and detail work. For homes built before 1978, lead-safe rules apply when old paint is disturbed.
Is Berlin Borough different from West Berlin?
Yes. Berlin Borough and Berlin Township are separate municipalities, and West Berlin is a community within Berlin Township. We serve both.
Do you stain decks in Berlin?
Yes. We clean, dry and stain decks and fences, and we time the work for dry weather.
