House Painters in Marshallton, DE

Rated 5.0 stars on Google from 100+ reviews.

Marshallton sits on the Red Clay Creek where the old mill village grew up, and the original core of stone and frame houses along the creek road is still there underneath everything that was built around it.

What was built around it is 1950s and 1960s development housing, ranches and split-levels running back from Kirkwood Highway. So a short drive covers two-hundred-year-old stone and seventy-year-old aluminum siding, sometimes on the same street.

What gets asked for in Marshallton

What we see on Marshallton houses

  • Old stone and frame along the creek

    Mill-era buildings by the Red Clay are stone or wood with generations of coatings. Old masonry needs to dry outward, so the finish that suits a 1960s ranch a quarter mile away is the wrong answer here.

  • Moisture in the creek bottom

    Properties low to the water hold moisture on the shaded side and grow a green film. That comes off and gets treated before painting, not sealed under a fresh coat where it will push the paint straight back off.

  • Chalked aluminum on the post-war streets

    The development housing here has original siding that has oxidized to a powdery surface. Rub a hand on it and it comes away gray. Nothing bonds to that until it is washed back properly.

  • Long low rooflines and carports

    Ranch construction means extended runs of fascia, soffit and carport framing. It is simple work but there is a lot of linear footage in it, and it is routinely underestimated from a photograph.
