Interior & Exterior Painting services in Petaluma
Petaluma has some of the oldest housing in Sonoma County. The west side near downtown is full of Victorian, Queen Anne and Craftsman homes with redwood siding, turned porch posts, brackets and many colors of trim. The east side is mostly tract housing from the 1950s onward, with stucco, panel siding and lap siding. Wind and fog reach the city through the Petaluma Gap, so mornings are often damp and afternoons breezy, which matters for spray work and drying. Old wood homes need careful scraping, spot priming of bare wood and sound caulk before the color goes on, and paint from before 1978 may contain lead. Rain falls mostly from November to March. Inside, the older homes have high ceilings, plaster walls and wood trim with many old layers. We paint homes and businesses on both sides of Petaluma.

HOA and local rules
Painting on its own rarely needs a building permit. Petaluma has historic districts, so if your home is inside one, ask the city's Planning Division whether an exterior change needs review before you start.
