Revitalizing Our Neighborhood and Giving Back To The Community
Home restoration is about more than just a fresh look. It is about protecting the character of our neighborhoods and supporting the people who live there. Paris Painting’s Paint It Forward campaign is a great example of what this looks like in action. Their most recent installment, in partnership with Sherwin Williams, focused on providing new exteriors of three homes in Northeast Minneapolis for Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge.
These homes provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals transitioning out of addiction programs and working toward independence. Restoring these spaces does more than improve curb appeal. It helps create a sense of stability and pride for residents while preserving the historic feel of the community. It is a reminder that home improvement can play a real role in building stronger neighborhoods.

Restoring Homes With Integrity
Many Twin Cities homes were built before 1978, the year lead-based paint was banned for residential use. When old layers of paint are disturbed during renovation, toxic lead dust can contaminate air and soil. This poses serious health risks to families and communities, especially to children and pregnant women.
Paris Painting continues to address this challenge head-on with EPA Lead-Safe Certification. This designation ensures that:
All lead-related work is supervised by certified professionals.
The team follows strict containment protocols, including plastic barriers, ground tarps, and HEPA filtration systems.
Cleanup meets rigorous EPA standards, protecting both homeowners and the environment.
Health Concerns Associated With Lead Exposure
Lead exposure poses significant health risks, particularly for children and pregnant women. Even small amounts of lead dust can have lasting consequences. For children, it can slow growth and development, making learning more difficult and sometimes leading to behavioral problems such as attention deficits or increased aggression. Adults aren’t immune either, as long-term exposure has been linked to high blood pressure, kidney damage, and reproductive complications. Addressing lead hazards isn’t just about removing old paint; it’s about creating a safe, healthy living environment for families now and in the future. Since 2012, Paris Painting has gone above and beyond for the Minneapolis/St. Paul community in not just restoring the historical charm of it's famous, classical homes, but by putting the safety of the community first.
