Eco-Friendly Painting Services in Loudoun County, VA

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are solvents that are added to most paints to help the paint dry and provide coverage. If you’ve ever smelled a “wet paint” smell, it is due to the VOC paint fumes. Painted surfaces can continue to provide VOCs for up to a year. These fumes can be harmful to the environment and may cause headaches and dizziness. Some VOCs are labeled as carcinogenic by the EPA. Our low-VOC paint and VOC-free paint options are a more sustainable choice for some customers. Low-VOC paint options are required to have less than 50g per liter of VOCs. Low-VOC paint products dry quickly, so it’s important to apply them to your surfaces for an even application. VOC-free paint must have less than 5g per liter. Zero VOC paints are tricky because many VOC are present in colorants, even when they are not in base paint. It’s vital to know the ingredients of your paint choice to ensure it does not contain VOCs. Our service professionals can help determine the best option for your home.
