Buildings inevitably wear down over time. Eventually, they will require maintenance and repairs to prevent further deterioration. This is especially true for historic structures, whether they’re homes, office buildings, retail stores, or apartments. 

If you want to preserve the historical integrity of your building, it is important to hire painting contractors who are skilled at accomplishing these kinds of specialty projects. You need a team who will prioritize maintaining the building’s original character and value while bringing it into the 21st century. 

At Brush Brothers Commercial Painting, we’re proud to be a leading historical restoration painting contractor in Utah. Not only can we help restore your historic building without causing damage, but we’ll ensure the project honors the past while looking to the future. 

Challenges of Historical Painting Projects

The goal of historical restorations is to restore damage that has occurred over time, recreate the building’s original aesthetics, and breathe new life into these unique structures. Preserving the original beauty of your building while making it suitable for modern use is no small task, which is why it’s vital to seek the help of experienced historical restoration painting contractors. 

Common restoration tasks include repairing and restoring damaged surfaces, such as plaster, wood and brick, along with repainting surfaces using historically accurate colors and finishes to maintain authenticity. However, working with older structures is much different than working with newer ones. 

At Brush Brothers Commercial Painting, we recognize that historical painting projects come with some unique challenges. Working with aged and delicate materials requires specialized tools and techniques in order to prevent damage while restoring unique details. It’s also important to remove old, deteriorated paint safely.
