Painters in Harrowgate & Juniata Park, Philadelphia (19134)
Our office is on Ormes Street, which puts us inside 19134 — Harrowgate, Juniata Park and the blocks around Kensington and Allegheny are our own neighborhood, not a zip code we drive to. Estimates here are usually walked the same week.
These are working blocks of two- and three-story brick, a lot of it painted over so many times that the old coats have to come off before anything new will hold. We price the prep honestly instead of quoting a recoat that fails in two winters.
Serving Harrowgate, Juniata Park, Feltonville, Fairhill and West Kensington (19134, 19133, 19124). Free written estimate and no deposit — you pay nothing until the crew is on site and working. Call or text (267) 395-6032.
What we actually paint in Harrowgate and Juniata
- Repeatedly painted brick fronts off Kensington Ave where failing coats get scraped, washed back to a sound edge and masonry-primed before finish coats.
- Stucco and parge repairs around East Somerset and Ormes, primed for masonry so the finish does not sheet off in a freeze.
- Boarded and vacant properties brought back for sale or rent: full interior, doors, closets, new trim and risers on a schedule tied to your settlement date.
- Section 8 and rental turnovers in Harrowgate and Fairhill priced per unit, sprayed and rolled between tenants.
- Iron railings, window guards and gates de-rusted and finished in DTM enamel — the difference between five years and one on these streets.
- Corner store and takeout interiors along Kensington and Allegheny, painted overnight or on a Sunday so you do not lose a day of business.
- Warehouse and shop space along the Ormes and Emerald corridor: block walls, ceiling decks, safety striping and dock doors.

How a job runs
We walk the property with you, measure it, and send a written estimate that spells out the prep — scraping, masonry primer, iron, caulking — instead of one square-foot number. On the day, floors and fixtures get masked, repairs and priming happen first, then paint. You walk it with the foreman before we pack up, and anything you point out gets corrected before an invoice exists.
There is no deposit at any stage. It stays your money until the work is real.
Harrowgate and Juniata painting questions
Are you actually based in 19134?
Yes. Our painting office is at 2825 Ormes St, Suite 4Q-A, Philadelphia, PA 19134, open Monday through Saturday 9am to 7pm. Harrowgate, Juniata Park and West Kensington are the blocks around us.
How much is it to paint a 19134 rowhome front?
Most two-story fronts run $950 to $1,450, and the prep is what moves it: heavily peeling brick that has to be scraped and masonry-primed costs more than a sound front that needs a recoat. Cornice, sash and iron are priced as line items so you can see what you are paying for.
Can you paint brick that is already peeling?
Yes, and this neighborhood is full of it. Failed paint gets scraped and washed to a sound edge, bare spots get a masonry conditioner, then two coats of masonry finish. Anyone quoting peeling brick without prep is selling you a repaint in two years.
Do you do vacant property and turnover work?
Constantly. Per-unit turnover pricing, walls-ceilings-trim packages for flips, and repeat scheduling for portfolios in 19134, 19133 and 19124. We invoice after the walkthrough, per unit.
Do you need money up front?
No deposit at any stage. You pay after you have walked the finished work with the foreman and anything you flagged is corrected.
