About painting homes in Pocantico Hills
Pocantico Hills is a small hamlet in the Town of Mount Pleasant, almost surrounded by the Rockefeller State Park Preserve and anchored by Kykuit, the Rockefeller family estate. Its name refers to the Pocantico River.
Homes here are few and often older, set among woods and fields. Shade and moisture from surrounding trees mean mildew washing and careful drying are part of exterior prep.
When a request comes in from Pocantico Hills, we pass it to a local painter who works in that area. The painter reaches out, looks at the house and gives you a written estimate. There is no charge to ask and no obligation to hire.
Before you agree to anything, ask the contractor for a Westchester County home improvement license number and proof of insurance. On homes built before 1978, ask whether the company is an EPA Lead-Safe Certified firm. Federal rules require that for paid work that disturbs old paint.
In Westchester County, exterior painting usually happens between late spring and early fall, while interior work can be booked any time. Use the estimate form to tell us what you want painted and what you have noticed, such as peeling, soft wood or water stains.
If you can, mention when the house was built, what the siding is made of and whether there are porches, high gables or other hard-to-reach areas. Those details help the painter plan the first visit and give you a more accurate price.
