Start with the substrate

Siding painting only works when the substrate is stable. Siding repair, failed caulk lines, and hidden moisture problems should be handled before finish coats go on.

Charlotte climate

North Carolina humidity, UV exposure, and storm season affect dry times, repaint cycles, and which exterior system makes sense for vinyl, aluminum, or wood siding.

Maintenance cycle

Good siding painting is part of an exterior maintenance cycle, not just a color change. We look at chalking, fading, failed coatings, and sun exposure to time the project correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you paint vinyl siding?

Yes! Modern paint technology allows us to paint vinyl siding with excellent results. We use specially formulated paints that flex with the vinyl and won't cause warping or peeling.

How much does siding painting cost?

Siding painting costs $1.50-4 per square foot depending on type and condition. An average home exterior runs $3,000-7,000. This is 60-80% less than siding replacement.

Is it better to paint or replace siding?

If your siding is structurally sound, painting is almost always more cost-effective. Replacement costs $8-15+ per square foot including labor. Painting provides a fresh look at a fraction of the cost.

How long does painted siding last?

Properly painted siding lasts 7-15 years depending on sun exposure and weather conditions. We use premium exterior paints rated for 15-25 year durability.

Can you change the siding color?

Absolutely! You can go lighter, darker, or completely different. Our color consultation helps you choose colors that complement your roof, trim, and landscaping.

Do you paint aluminum siding?

Yes! Aluminum siding paints beautifully. We clean, prime, and apply premium paints for a like-new appearance. This is often the best option for older aluminum siding.

What usually changes the price and schedule for siding painting?

Surface prep, siding repair, stucco-adjacent details, UV exposure, humidity, storm wear, and the maintenance cycle of the existing coating all affect both quote and timing.

Yes. We regularly complete projects across East Charlotte, Northeast Charlotte, Northwest Charlotte, and Southeast Charlotte.
