Newington is a community full of well-built, well-kept homes — ranches, split-levels, and Cape Cods that went up in the postwar decades and have been maintained by generations of proud homeowners ever since. If your home dates from the 1950s through the 1980s, it almost certainly has painted wood trim, original siding, and possibly a few layers of old paint that require an experienced hand to deal with correctly. E D Painting has been serving Newington and central Hartford County since 2004, and we know how to approach older housing stock the right way — assessing what's there, addressing what needs fixing, and applying a finish that will actually hold up.

Whether you're updating the exterior color of your ranch on a street of well-maintained neighbors, refreshing the interior before putting the house on the market, or handling a long-deferred exterior repaint, we'll give you a fair estimate and a result you'll be happy with for years — not just months.

Painting Services We Offer in Newington

• Exterior House Painting — Complete prep and painting for siding, trim, shutters, doors, and all exterior surfaces. For older Newington homes, we assess paint condition carefully before any prep plan is finalized.
• Interior House Painting — Clean, thorough interior work with full protection for floors and furniture. Ideal before a sale, after a renovation, or just because it's time.
• Aluminum & Vinyl Siding Painting — Many Newington homes have aluminum siding that was painted or re-painted years ago and is now showing its age. We can restore it properly — cleaning, etching, priming, and painting — at a fraction of replacement cost.
• Deck Staining & Refinishing — Strip, clean, and reseal your deck before it reaches the point of needing replacement. Connecticut winters are hard on unprotected wood.
• Power Washing — Clean siding, driveways, and walkways. Available as a standalone service or as part of an exterior painting project.
• Wallpaper Removal — Many Newington homes still have original or older wallpaper. We remove it completely and prep the walls properly before painting begins.
• Decorative Finishes — Custom interior techniques for homeowners updating an older home's look.
• Commercial Painting — We serve businesses, offices, and commercial properties in the Newington area and throughout Hartford County.

Why Newington Homeowners Choose E D Painting

• Experience with older homes — most of Newington's housing stock was built between the 1950s and 1980s. We know what that means: multiple paint layers, possible lead paint considerations, aluminum siding, original wood trim. We approach each job with an honest assessment and a proper plan.
• 20+ years serving Hartford County — in business since 2004, fully local, and accountable. We don't use subcontractors — the people who come to your house are our own trained crew.
• Fully licensed and insured — CT Home Improvement Contractor HIC.0632297. Licensed, bonded, and insured. Ask any contractor for this — if they hesitate, walk away.
• Preparation first, always — scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming before any finish coat. Paint applied over a failing surface will fail just as fast. We fix the surface first.
• Straightforward pricing — clear written estimates, no surprise add-ons at the end. What we quote is what you pay unless the scope of the job changes.
• Commercial-grade professionalism on residential jobs — E D Painting has completed projects for Nordstrom, Dick's Sporting Goods, and other major commercial clients. Every residential customer gets that same standard of work and conduct on their property.

Our Process

1. Free on-site estimate — we come to you, walk the project, and provide a written quote that breaks down the scope of work. No surprises and no pressure.
2. Surface assessment and preparation — on older homes especially, this step takes real time and attention. We evaluate the condition of existing paint, identify any problem areas like wood rot, failed caulk, or adhesion issues, and address them before prepping the surface for paint. Scraping, sanding, priming, and caulking are all part of the job — not extras.
3. Application — the right technique for every surface. Trim gets cut in carefully by brush. Large flat areas are rolled. We take the time to do it correctly rather than fast.
4. Daily cleanup — your property is respected from day one to the last. We tidy up at the end of every workday and leave the site in order.
5. Final walkthrough — we walk the completed job with you before we consider it finished. Touch-up items get handled before we leave for the last time.
