PAINTING POWER IN COLLINGSWOOD
Painting Services in Collingswood
Collingswood is five miles east of Center City Philadelphia, between the Cooper River to the north and Newton Creek to the south. Quakers settled the area in the late 17th century, and much of it later belonged to the Collings family. Edward Collings Knight donated the land for Knight Park, and the Stokes-Lees mansion on Lees Avenue, dating to 1707, is one of the oldest houses in Camden County.
The borough, formed in 1888, is known for its walkable downtown, PATCO station and the Saturday farmers market held under the PATCO line from May to November. Painting Power paints homes and businesses throughout Collingswood, including the Knight Park area.
LOCAL HOMES
Older Porch Homes and Plaster Interiors
Much of Collingswood's housing dates from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Front porches, wood trim, older windows and plaster walls are common, and some houses are twins set close together. Exterior work often centers on porches, railings, columns and trim that take a lot of weather. Inside, we repair plaster cracks and refresh trim and doors that have many coats of paint.
Weather and Exterior Paint in Collingswood
Historic homes often have many layers of old paint, original wood details and windows that need patient prep. Humid summers and winter freeze-thaw cycles show up first as cracking and peeling on the sunny and wet sides. We plan scraping, sanding, priming and caulking around each surface. For homes built before 1978, EPA lead-safe work rules apply when painted surfaces are disturbed, so tell us the age of the house when you call.

LOCAL PAINTING FAQ
Questions About Painting in Collingswood
Can you repaint a front porch, including floors and railings?
Yes. Porches take a lot of weather. We scrape and sand, prime bare wood, and use a floor-rated coating on porch decking and durable enamel on railings and columns.
Do you paint half of a twin home?
Yes. We paint your side neatly and keep materials and overspray off the neighboring property.
Do you work on Haddon Avenue storefronts?
Yes. We paint small retail and restaurant spaces and can schedule the work before or after business hours.
