Boost curb appeal and protect your home with a durable exterior repaint.

Georgia heat, humidity, and pollen are hard on exterior paint. Our exterior service combines thorough prep, power washing, scraping, carpentry repair, caulking, and priming, with weather-resistant coatings that keep your home looking sharp for years.

A quality exterior repaint doesn’t just boost curb appeal; it seals and protects your siding, trim, and woodwork from moisture and rot.

The difference is in the prep. Our crews protect your space, repair and prime surfaces, and apply premium coatings with crisp cut lines and even coverage, so your exterior painting looks flawless and lasts for years.

What's Included

What an exterior repaint includes

Every exterior quote covers the prep and the paint below, from the foundation line to the fascia.

  • Pressure washer spraying an arc of water along the base of a home

    Power washing

    A soft wash strips pollen, dirt, mildew, and chalk so the new coat bonds to sound paint.

  • Carpenter repairing wood trim outside a window

    Wood rot and carpentry

    Soft fascia, trim, and siding boards replaced before paint, not painted over.

  • Gloved hand running a bead of caulk along a window frame

    Scraping, caulking, and priming

    Loose paint taken back to a sound edge, every joint caulked, bare wood spot-primed.

  • Painter brushing fresh paint onto the exterior siding of a home

    Weather-resistant coatings

    100% acrylic exterior paint with mildewcide, from Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore.

  • Two painters on scaffolding painting lap siding

    Siding, trim, doors, and shutters

    Fascia, soffits, and porches included, with two finish coats back-brushed where needed.

  • Crew painting the exterior of a row of townhomes

    HOA color approval

    HOA color compliance assistance, so your new colors fit the community’s approved palette.

  • Doing the inside too?

    Plenty of exterior jobs grow to include interior painting or cabinet refinishing, and we also handle commercial exteriors. Tell us the scope and we will fold it into one estimate.

Color & Finish

Exterior colors that hold up outside

A body color, a trim color, and one accent for the door is the plan behind most good exteriors. These are popular choices for Atlanta homes.

Start with what is not being painted: the roof, the brick or stone, the driveway, the windows. A warm brown roof leans toward cream, taupe, or olive. A gray roof suits soft white, charcoal, or a muted blue. We brush large samples on more than one side of the house and check them in direct sun and in shade.

Outdoor light pushes undertones further than indoor light does. A gray that reads neutral on the chip can turn blue on the front elevation, and darker body colors absorb more heat and show every flaw in the siding. Save the strong color for the door, where it does the most with the least surface.

Signs the outside needs paint

Waiting too long turns a paint job into a carpentry job. Walk the house each spring and look for these.

  • Chalk on your hand

    Rub the siding with a dark cloth. A powdery residue means sun has broken down the binder and the coating is spent.

  • Peeling, cracking, or blistering

    Any lifting film means water is getting behind the paint. Catch it before it reaches the wood.

  • Mildew that keeps coming back

    Dark streaks on shaded walls that return within weeks of washing mean the mildewcide in the paint is used up.

  • Soft or spongy wood

    Press a screwdriver into fascia, sills, and trim corners. Any give is rot that needs carpentry before paint.

  • Open caulk joints

    Gaps around windows, doors, and trim are direct water entry points, and peeling follows fast.

A professional exterior repaint lasts 7 to 10 years on most metro Atlanta homes, less on wood siding and the sunny south and west sides. The best painting windows are April through early June and September through early November. Two years late adds scraping and trim replacement. Four years late adds rot repair and new siding. Call (678) 737-6776 if you are seeing any of the above.
