Project Spotlight: Restoring Mr. Millard's Pre-1978 Home with Expert Exterior Painting in Nampa Idaho

January 1, 2024

Spray 'n Coat Painting recently had the opportunity to work on a special project with Mr. Millard, a long-time customer in Nampa, Idaho. Mr. Millard needed a complete exterior refresh for his pre-1978 home, which was showing significant signs of wear. Given the home’s age, we followed strict EPA safety guidelines under the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, making sure that every step of our work met the safety standards required for older homes. As one of the only EPA-certified painting companies in the Treasure Valley, we were ready to bring Mr. Millard’s home back to life with care, precision, and a fresh coat of durable paint.


Here’s What We Did:


  • Lead-Safe Preparation: Due to the home’s age, we implemented EPA-compliant lead-safe practices throughout, especially during scraping and sanding the peeling paint.
  • Thorough Scraping and Repair: With peeling paint around the house, especially in the covered parking area, we invested time in scraping, sanding, and performing necessary repairs to achieve a solid, clean surface for new paint.
  • Exterior Painting: We applied a high-quality, weather-resistant paint that’s built to withstand Idaho's seasons while boosting curb appeal. Our approach ensured long-lasting protection and an updated, beautiful look for this historic home.


Project Impact: Bringing New Life to a Treasure Valley Classic


After all the detailed prep work and care in following lead-safe guidelines, Mr. Millard’s home now stands out with a crisp, modern look that still respects its original character. The transformation has not only elevated his home’s curb appeal but also earned some compliments from neighbors (one of whom has already hired us for a project of their own!). This project represents our commitment to providing quality, safety, and expertise in every residential exterior painting job we handle in the Boise Metro area.
