Why Homeowners Near Lehigh Valley Hospital Network Choose Joseph Assise III Painting

How Old Are the Homes Around the Cedar Crest Campus?

The hospital's street address, 1200 S. Cedar Crest Blvd., falls inside Salisbury Township in Lehigh County. The township has about 5,521 housing units. Most are single-family detached houses (84.1%), and 83.9% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners, so the typical project here is a whole-house interior or exterior repaint on an owner's home rather than a rental turnover.

Houses of that age have usually been repainted many times, so the condition of the old coats (peeling, alligatoring, chalking) decides how much scraping and priming the job needs before any finish paint goes on.

Does the EPA Lead Rule Apply to Painting Near LVHN?

For most homes in this part of Salisbury Township, it does. The EPA's Renovation, Repair and Painting rule covers paid work that disturbs paint in housing built before 1978. It is triggered once a job disturbs more than 6 square feet of painted surface per room indoors or more than 20 square feet outside. The contractor must be an EPA-certified firm, hand you the Renovate Right pamphlet before work begins, and use lead-safe methods: no open-flame burning, no power sanding unless the tool has a shroud and HEPA vacuum, and heat guns only below 1,100°F.

When Is Exterior Painting Season on the Cedar Crest Side of Allentown?

NOAA's 1991-2020 normals for Lehigh Valley International Airport, the region's long-record weather station, place the median last spring freeze (32°F) on April 20 and the median first fall freeze on October 24. Benjamin Moore's alkyd primer for cedar and redwood needs 50°F, while its current Aura exterior allows 35°F, and the airport's average October low is 43.8°F. Late-season exterior work around the hospital is therefore planned for mid-day hours and dry stretches, since cool, humid air slows drying.

Is my house near Lehigh Valley Hospital likely to have lead paint?

If it was built before 1978, it may. Census estimates show 88.9% of Salisbury Township homes were built before 1980, with a median build year of 1967. The only way to rule lead out is a written determination from a certified lead inspector or risk assessor, or a certified renovator using an EPA-recognized test kit. Without that, any paid job that disturbs paint should follow the EPA's lead-safe work practices.

What months are best for exterior painting in Salisbury Township?

Late May through September usually gives the most room. NOAA normals for Lehigh Valley International Airport put the median last 36°F night near May 2 and the first one near October 12. Benjamin Moore's current Aura exterior and Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior are both rated down to 35°F, but the alkyd primer Benjamin Moore specifies for cedar and redwood needs 50°F. Cool, humid weather lengthens dry and recoat times, so fall work depends on the forecast.
