Belmont, in the details

A streetcar suburb.
Houses that reward careful prep.

The Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood grew on land that was once part of Adelicia Acklen’s Belmont estate, whose mid-1800s mansion now sits on the Belmont University campus. The oldest sections were subdivided in 1890 and 1891, and a 1901 streetcar franchise along Belmont Boulevard turned it into a streetcar suburb. Most houses went up between 1905 and 1920 and through the 1920s: bungalows, cottages, American foursquares and Tudors, in brick, frame and local limestone.

Our job records show 36 jobs in ZIP 37212 since 2014, about evenly split between interiors and exteriors. That ZIP also covers Hillsboro Village and part of 12 South, so this is a ZIP figure, not a Belmont-only count.

What century-old houses need

Porch columns, exposed rafter tails, wide trim and original wood windows are where older Belmont houses need the most preparation: scraping, wood repair, caulking and priming before paint. Inside, plaster walls and original millwork need patching and sanding that a newer house would not. We list that work in writing so you can compare it.

The Belmont-Hillsboro conservation overlay

About 1,100 properties sit inside Metro’s Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood conservation zoning overlay, adopted in 2005 and expanded in 2007 and 2012. In a conservation overlay, Metro reviews new construction, additions, demolition and relocation; it does not review paint colors or interior work. Painting unpainted brick or stone is reviewed in historic preservation overlays, so confirm with the Metro Historic Zoning Commission before you paint masonry.

What is included in a written estimate

A typical scope includes an owner walkthrough, protection of adjacent areas, the agreed washing, scraping, repairs, caulking and priming, the specified paint, cleanup and a final walkthrough. Eligible painting work has a five-year transferable limited warranty; staining and houses built before 1978 are excluded, and other terms apply.

Cabinet painting

Kitchen cabinet painting. A closer look.

Most kitchen cabinet painting projects already published on our site run $3,500–$8,500, and bathroom vanities $800–$1,800. Those figures are not a quote for your kitchen. Your written estimate follows an on-site review.

How a Belmont painting project runs

One home. One clear plan.

From the first conversation to the final detail, the work follows a written scope, not a generic package.

01

Walk the project

Brendon walks the project with you. We review surfaces, colors and finish options, then put the agreed work, products and terms in writing.

02

Protect & prepare

We protect adjacent areas and complete the agreed washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, repairs and priming.

03

Paint & walk through

The specified finish is applied with attention to the details. We review the finished work with you and address the agreed punch list.

The people behind the finish

Care you can see.

Protection, preparation and the finishing details belong in the same written scope.

Over 2,000 homes painted since 2010. 5-year transferable limited warranty on eligible paint work; terms apply.

Also covered on this page: Edgehill

Edgehill, east of Belmont.

Edgehill

Edgehill sits just south of downtown, generally between I-40, 8th Avenue South, Wedgewood Avenue and Villa Place. It is one of Nashville’s earliest Black neighborhoods, settled after the Civil War, and much of it was reshaped by 1960s urban renewal and interstate construction. Single-family homes from the 1890s to the 1940s remain around Villa Place, near Edgehill Village, the restored former White Way Cleaners buildings at Villa Place and Edgehill Avenue. Older houses here get the same written, surface-by-surface preparation plan as Belmont; newer infill usually needs less.

Belmont painting, answered clearly

A few questions. Clear answers.

Choose the work with confidence. Start with the scope, not a promise.

Do you paint homes in Belmont?

Yes. We paint interiors and exteriors in the Belmont-Hillsboro neighborhood. Our job records show 36 jobs in ZIP 37212 since 2014; that ZIP also includes Hillsboro Village and part of 12 South.

Do I need approval to paint my Belmont-Hillsboro house?

The Belmont-Hillsboro overlay is a neighborhood conservation overlay. Metro does not review paint colors or interior work there; it reviews new construction, additions, demolition and relocation. Check with the Metro Historic Zoning Commission before painting unpainted brick or stone.

How much does painting an older Belmont house cost?

It depends on the surfaces, the amount of scraping and wood repair, trim detail, existing finish and color changes. Older houses often need more preparation. We provide a written estimate after reviewing the property.

Do you paint homes in Edgehill?

Yes. Edgehill is covered on this Belmont page. Share your address so we can confirm the scope.

Can you paint kitchen cabinets in Belmont?

Yes. We review cabinet condition, the existing finish, doors, drawers and fixed frames, then specify preparation and a cabinet-grade finish. Your written Belmont estimate confirms the finish and the doors, drawers and frames included.

What warranty do you offer?

Eligible painting work has a five-year transferable limited warranty, subject to your contract and our published terms. Coverage is for specified workmanship defects, not every surface or cause of failure. Staining and houses built before 1978 are excluded; other exclusions and eligibility requirements apply. Read the full terms on our warranty page before accepting a Belmont estimate.

Are you licensed and insured?

The House Painters - Nashville is licensed and insured. Ask for project documentation when reviewing a Belmont estimate.

What is the difference between this page and Hillsboro Village?

This page covers the Belmont-Hillsboro residential streets and Edgehill. Our Hillsboro Village page covers the 21st Avenue South shops and the homes around them.
