Exterior House Painting Built for the Lowcountry Climate

An exterior paint job on the South Carolina coast has to fight humidity, salt air, pollen, and brutal summer sun. We've been painting houses around Andrews, Charleston, Pawleys Island, and Myrtle Beach for over two decades, and we know which prep steps and product systems actually hold up out here. Every exterior we touch gets thorough washing, scraping, priming of bare wood, and two solid coats — soffits, fascia, shutters, and trim included. No shortcuts, no thin second coat, no leaving the back of the house for ‘next time.'

What's Included

  • Full power washing and surface prep
  • Hand scraping and sanding of peeling areas
  • Caulking gaps around windows, doors, and trim
  • Spot priming of bare wood and stains
  • Two coats of premium exterior paint
  • Soffits, fascia, shutters, and trim
  • Front and back doors
  • Final walk-around with the homeowner

Problems We Solve

  • Peeling and chalking paint from sun exposure
  • Salt-air damage on coastal homes
  • Rotted trim and fascia that needs repair before paint
  • Faded shutters and front doors
  • Mismatched colors from previous patch jobs

Why Hire a 25-Year Pro?

Coastal exterior work fails when prep is rushed. We've seen too many homes where a crew sprayed a quick coat over peeling siding and the job didn't make it through one Lowcountry summer. We take the time to scrape, sand, prime, and caulk — because in this climate, that's the only way to get paint that lasts.

Materials & Brands

We use professional-grade materials chosen specifically for Lowcountry conditions — Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, James Hardie, and other top brands. We're happy to discuss material options with you during your free estimate so you can make the best choice for your home and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

With proper prep and quality paint, you can expect 7–10 years on most siding and 5–7 years on south-facing walls that take the most sun.
