Services
Ellwanger Painting is a licensed, lead-safe interior painter in Bellingham, WA, working in both residential homes and commercial buildingsfrom older craftsman houses to offices, clinics, and small retail spaces. As a local Bellingham painting company , we spend our time solving real interior problems: worn walls and trim, prior patch jobs, mismatched sheens, and surfaces that have to stand up to daily use from families, staff, and customers. For each project, we walk the space with you to confirm colors, sheens, scope, and access, then protect floors, furnishings, and equipment before we start. We plan around business hours where needed, use low-odor, low-VOC systems when appropriate, and back our interior work with a 5-year workmanship warranty.
Ellwanger Paintings exterior painting page walks Bellingham homeowners through how we prep, prime, and repaint siding, trim, and fascia for long-lasting results in Pacific Northwest weather. The page explains our step-by-step process, lead-safe and moisture-focused prep, the paints we recommend, and shows real project photos so you can see the quality of our exterior repaints before you request an estimate.
