A Meticulous Process of Paint Preparations

Our painters deliver a clean, protective exterior finish for your home. First, we don’t shortcut the preparation process. We wash the entire house with cleaning solutions to kill all organic growth. 

After waiting a few days, we return to start prepping. First, we ensure all loose paint is scraped and primed. We cut out all the old caulk that has split. Our team also fills cracks and expansion joints with heavy-bodied exterior acrylic caulk. We use Sherwin-Williams Shermax, which is our standard choice. 

If you have old Masonite siding on your home, we check all siding for nail holes and fill them with caulking or putty. If the siding is damaged, our in-house siding-replacement team is available. Our exterior painters carefully complete each step of the painting process. They also follow manufacturer specs to ensure quality and compliance.

Painting to Combat Urban Environmental Impacts

Living in a bustling hub near Dix Park or the downtown core means your facade faces more than just sun and rain; it deals with higher levels of atmospheric pollutants and dust. These particles can bond to your siding, causing premature staining and degrading the protective film.

We utilize advanced surface-cleaning techniques and high-bond primers to ensure the new coat adheres perfectly despite these urban conditions. This proactive strategy prevents the dingy appearance that often plagues city properties, keeping your exterior walls looking fresh and vibrant for longer.

Expert Color Selection for Uniquely Lit Homes

The way paint colors appear on historic homes in Oakwood and the modern, clean-lined builds in Brier Creek differ significantly. Even shaded yards in North Hills, where the sun sets over 440, will cause variation. We guide you through selecting sheens and tones that account for North Carolina’s intense southern exposure.

By choosing specialized products designed for high color retention, you avoid the common frustration of vibrant hues turning dull or patchy after just a few summers. Our team ensures that your final choice provides both the visual impact you want and the durability you require.

Spray & Brush Applications for Complex Substrates

Whether your outdoor walls feature traditional cedar lap siding, modern fiber-cement, or intricate trim work, the application method must be precise to be effective. We evaluate each surface to determine if the uniform coverage of a spray finish or the detailed penetration of a hand-brushed technique is superior for your needs.

This careful assessment avoids common issues like overspray or inconsistent thickness on detailed woodwork. Our goal is a seamless transition between materials that highlights your home’s architectural design and layout. We provide both applications and can also combine spraying and backbrushing.

Estimating & Accurate Paint Costing

To determine the cost of painting your home exterior, our estimator first counts and measures the areas to be painted. Then we identify and flag any problematic areas that need repair or replacement. When you want the best paint solutions, our expert team will help identify and solve each issue with long-term performance in mind. Our full-service exterior painting lets you easily combine services. You can streamline the process by working with one company. Here is a list of a few areas that we can paint.
