What's Included

Every exterior project, every step

Power wash

Full house wash to lift dirt, mildew, and chalking paint. Without it, fresh paint won't bond - and it'll peel in 18 months.

Scrape & sand

Loose paint scraped, edges feathered, glossy spots sanded. The boring step nobody else photographs.

Caulk & prime

Re-caulk gaps in trim and around windows. Spot-prime bare wood, stains, and tannin bleed.

Premium paint

SW Duration or BM Aura Exterior. 100% acrylic, mildew-resistant, designed for the Tennessee Valley climate.

Two coats standard

Two full coats on body and trim - not one heavy coat to look like two. Difference shows in 3 years.

Daily cleanup

Drop cloths, plant tarps, and overspray protection every day. Yard looks the way it did when we got there.

Surfaces We Paint

Whole-home exteriors and everything in between

Siding

Hardie board, wood lap, vinyl (yes, you can paint vinyl), stucco, brick. Each gets the right primer and finish.

Trim & soffits

Fascia, soffits, window casing, shutters, garage doors. The pieces that frame the house - sharper than they've ever looked.

Decks & porches

Sand, strip, stain or paint. Solid color or transparent, depending on what the wood will hold.

FAQs

Exterior painting questions

When can exteriors be painted in Knoxville?

March through early November typically. We don't paint below 50°F overnight, in active rain, or when rain is forecast within 24 hours of finish coat. We watch the forecast and adjust.

How long does a full exterior repaint take?

An average 2,000–3,000 sq ft Knoxville home takes 5–8 working days. Brick, three-story, or heavy trim houses can run 10–14 days.

Will the paint peel?

Not if it's prepped right. Peeling exterior paint is almost always a prep problem (skipped wash, no primer on bare wood, painting over mildew). Our process eliminates the usual causes - and we warranty it for 3 years.

Can you paint vinyl siding?

Yes - with the right primer and a vinyl-safe paint color. Dark colors on vinyl can cause warping, so we'll steer you toward colors rated for vinyl.

Do you repair rotted wood?

Minor wood repairs are usually included. Larger rot, replacement boards, or fascia work get quoted up front separately so there are no surprises.
