Restoring the Charm of Century Homes: Expert Exterior Painting in Cleveland Heights, Lakewood & Northeast Ohio Suburbs

In This Guide

Historic home front porch stunning transformation

In the tree-lined neighborhoods of Cleveland Heights, Ohio, a historic home’s front porch recently received a stunning transformation. What began with deteriorating columns and temporary wooden supports (photo above) has been expertly restored to its original elegance by Neubert Painting’s skilled craftsmen.

At Neubert Painting, we specialize in the unique challenges of painting and restoring the 100-year-old century homes that define Cleveland’s inner ring suburbs. Since 1975, our family-owned company has been Cleveland’s trusted house painters.

Our expertise shines brightest on older wood-frame and brick homes throughout Lakewood, Rocky River, Bay Village, Shaker Heights, Cleveland Heights, Gates Mills, Hunting Valley, Chagrin Falls, Ohio City, Tremont and Hudson.

These elegant historic homes require far more than a standard paint job. They demand meticulous preparation, premium materials, and true craftsmanship to withstand Northeast Ohio’s harsh weather while preserving their architectural character.

Superior Preparation Techniques That Deliver Lasting Results

Our specialty crews work exclusively on these older homes. They begin with thorough commercial power washing and hand-scrubbing where needed, followed by the industry-leading XIM Peel Bond priming system. This advanced primer creates an exceptional bond that glues down old, peeling paint and prevents future failure. We then top it with Benjamin Moore MoorGard, the gold standard for exterior paints, renowned for superior durability, weather resistance, color retention, and a beautiful low-lustre finish.

The Best 4-Year Warranty in the Business – Completely Automatic

What truly sets Neubert Painting apart is our unmatched 4-year warranty on wood surfaces. It’s fully automatic—no forms to fill out, no claims to file. Every February and March we inspect hundreds of our customers’ homes. Touch-ups begin in late March and are completed by early June. Our customers receive a warranty report, detailing any work needed. We fix any peeling, defects, or issues we find—with no exclusions.

Continued Maintenance Program for Lifelong Protection

After the initial warranty, our Continued Maintenance Program keeps our customers’ homes protected year after year. We continue annual inspections and offer professional touch-up services at our current hourly rates (upon their approval). Many homeowners extend the life of their paint jobs for up to 15 years or more with this extended care.

Dedicated Carpentry Crews for Complete Restoration

Older homes often reveal underlying carpentry issues—rotted wood, damaged trim, or structural concerns that cause paint to fail. Most painting companies lack real carpentry expertise. Neubert Painting maintains two full-time, highly skilled carpentry crews who specialize in high-quality historic restoration work. From minor repairs to complete porch column replacements (as shown above), our carpenters deliver results that match the original architecture perfectly. This full-service approach—expert carpentry followed by our premium painting system—solves problems at the source and prevents costly future repairs.
