PAINTING POWER IN NATIONAL PARK
Painting Contractor in National Park
Despite its name, National Park isn't a national park. It was developed in 1895 as "National Park on the Delaware," a Methodist religious retreat started by James E. Lake, who also founded Ocean City. The area was historically called Red Bank, for the color of its soil, and in October 1777 Continental troops at Fort Mercer here drove back an attack by Hessian troops in the Battle of Red Bank.
The borough, formed from West Deptford in 1902, faces south Philadelphia and Fort Mifflin across the Delaware River. It's small, about 3,000 residents, and Painting Power paints homes throughout it.
LOCAL HOMES
Small Riverside Borough Homes
National Park is almost entirely residential, with older homes on compact lots, many of them decades old. River exposure means wind, humidity and damp mornings that are hard on exterior paint, so prep and timing matter. Inside, owners usually want fresh colors, trim and door updates, smooth ceilings and painted cabinets.
Weather and Exterior Paint in National Park
Homes near the river and creeks get more wind, humidity and heavy morning dew than properties a few miles inland. We schedule exterior coats so they have time to dry before evening dew settles, and we check shaded north sides for mildew, which has to be washed off and treated before any paint goes on.
