Painters in New Westminster, BC

New Westminster is the Royal City, and it shows in the houses. Queens Park holds some of the finest heritage homes in the Lower Mainland. Sapperton has solid older streets. Queensborough has newer townhouses on the river flats. Uptown and the hills above Columbia Street have condos and detached homes with river views. Exceptional Painting has painted across all of it since 2012, and each neighbourhood asks for something different.

The city is hilly, the homes are old, and the river is never far away. A paint job here has to respect the house and the climate in equal measure.

Queens Park Character Homes

Queens Park is one of the Lower Mainland’s most treasured heritage neighbourhoods, with grand character homes, original wood siding, wraparound porches, and detailed trim that date back a century. Painting these homes is restoration work as much as it is painting, and we treat it that way.

Our crew strips failing paint by hand where the detail demands it, repairs damaged wood, matches heritage colour palettes, and applies premium coatings that protect the original craftsmanship. Inside, plaster walls, high ceilings, and original woodwork are repaired and finished with the same patience. For homes built before 1990 we follow lead safe work practices, so your family and your neighbours stay protected while old paint comes off. A Queens Park home painted well looks like it has always looked, only fresher.

Waterfront Condos and Columbia Street

Down by the river, New Westminster has a different kind of home: waterfront condos and newer buildings along Columbia Street and the Quay. Interior painting in a condo means working around strata rules, protecting hallways and elevators, and keeping noise and smell down for neighbours. We do a lot of this work, from single unit repaints to common area refreshes.

Commercial spaces along Columbia Street call us too, for offices, retail, and restaurants that need a fresh look without closing for a week. We schedule around your business hours, work in sections so you can keep operating, and leave each area clean at the end of the day. Low VOC paint keeps the air comfortable for staff and customers while we work.

Hillside Homes With River Views

Much of New Westminster sits on a hill, and hillside homes bring their own painting challenges. Steep lots mean careful access and safe setup, and the river side of the house takes more weather than the sheltered side. We set up properly, protect the landscaping below, and choose exterior coatings that hold up to sun on the exposed slopes and steady moisture on the shaded ones.

In Sapperton, Moody Park, Brow of the Hill, and Victoria Hill, the housing is a mix of older detached homes, duplexes, and newer infill. Exterior painting here starts with a proper wash, scraping and sanding of failing paint, and priming of bare wood. We use Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint, a premium paint made for the coastal climate. Decks and fences get the same care, since wood on a hillside lot dries unevenly and needs a stain that protects it properly.
