Exterior Painting in Memphis, TN
Siding, trim, decks, and fences — protected and refreshed with premium weather-resistant coatings and the prep work to make them last.
Prep Work That Earns Its Keep
Memphis weather is hard on exterior paint. Hot, humid summers and freeze-thaw cycles in winter chew through cheap paint jobs in 2-3 years. The difference between a paint job that lasts 5 years and one that lasts 10 isn't usually the paint — it's the prep. We power-wash, scrape loose paint, sand failing edges, caulk gaps, and prime bare wood before any topcoat goes on.
Coating Selection for Memphis Weather
We use premium 100% acrylic exterior paints with proven track records in our climate. For metal trim we use a different system, for wood siding another, and for masonry yet another — there's no single right product. We'll talk through brand and product options during the estimate based on your specific surfaces, exposure, and desired sheen.
Decks, Fences, and Outdoor Structures
Decks need different prep than siding — sanding, stripping old finish, and choosing between solid stain, semi-transparent stain, or paint depending on the wood condition and the look you want. Fences benefit from semi-transparent stain in most cases. We do power-washing as part of the deck and fence prep, repair or replace damaged boards, and apply a finish that will hold up to weather and use.

Common Questions
When's the best time of year for exterior painting in Memphis?
Spring and fall are ideal — moderate temperatures and lower humidity help the paint cure properly. We can paint in summer with care for timing and shade, and we avoid days with rain in the forecast.
How long does exterior paint last in Memphis?
A well-prepped exterior paint job using quality 100% acrylic paint typically lasts 7-10 years on wood siding, longer on fiber-cement and vinyl. UV exposure on south- and west-facing walls is the biggest factor in fade and degradation.
Do you handle small repairs?
Yes — we do minor wood repair (rotten siding, damaged trim, soft fascia) as part of the prep so you're not painting over problems. Larger structural repairs we'll flag and recommend a contractor partner for.
Will the paint smell affect us inside the house?
Modern exterior acrylics have very low odor compared to old oil-based products. You may notice it slightly on hot days but it dissipates quickly and isn't strong enough to drive most homeowners out.
