How to flip a lead based exterior paint house?
I have a house that has lead paint peeling off in the exterior. I was looking for a quote for a new paint job, and it came at $7000 for just paint and another $7000 for stripping lead off soffits and fascias. The house is brick and stucco and lead is only on wooden trims- porch column, patio roof siding, soffits, and fascias.
Is there an alternative strategy to give this home a face-lift without spending tremendous amount of money on the exterior? There's some work need to be in the house too and I don't want to spend the entire budget on paint.
