Why Choose Our Exterior Team

When you invite painters to work around your home or business, you want more than a low price. You want a crew that shows up on time, protects your property, and follows a proven process. At 360° Painting of DeKalb County, our exterior projects are overseen by project managers who coordinate each step and keep you updated as work progresses.

Premium Paints & Local Surface Knowledge

We use premium paints from Sherwin-Williams, PPG Paints, and Benjamin Moore, selected for strong color retention and resistance to peeling when paired with proper prep. Our team matches paint and finish to each surface type and the conditions it may face outside.

Decatur’s older housing stock includes Craftsman bungalows with intricate trim profiles and Victorian-era homes with detailed millwork. Those surfaces reward careful brush work and surface-specific product choices. The area’s mature tree canopy also creates persistent shade and moisture buildup on north-facing exteriors, making thorough prep a critical step for coating longevity.

Written Warranties & Consistent Professionalism

We back our work with a 2-year paint warranty and a 6-month carpentry warranty. Coverage details are reviewed with you before any work begins so there are no surprises.

Professionalism carries through every stage: neat work areas, respect for your schedule, clear expectations, and a final walk-through to confirm you’re satisfied with the result. Our aim is to leave you with a clean exterior and no unfinished details.

Our Exterior Painting Process

A documented process gives you a clear picture of what to expect and reduces uncertainty around scheduling and disruption. We follow nine named steps from start to finish, and we confirm the scope in writing before any work begins.

Consultation:
We discuss your goals, review finish options, and walk through paint types and samples so you can make informed decisions about color and product before anything is committed.

Property Protection:
Landscaping, grills, outdoor furniture, and walkways are covered or moved using tarps and drop cloths. This keeps your yard and outdoor living areas clean while work is underway.

Preliminary Walk-Through:
An on-site supervisor walks the property with you to confirm the agreed scope before the crew begins, so everyone is aligned from the start.

Surface Preparation:
We remove dirt and mildew using biodegradable detergent or bleach, scrape and sand peeling paint, spot-prime bare areas, apply caulk at gaps and joints, evaluate and address any rotten or broken wood, and secure loose boards, moldings, and protruding nails. Proper prep helps the finish coat bond and perform.

Window & Fixture Preparation:
Glass, hardware, and light fixtures are masked or protected before any coating is applied. Downspouts, storm windows, and shutters may be removed and later reinstalled to ensure even coverage along edges and behind trim.

Repair Evaluation:
If minor repairs would protect the long-term investment, we discuss them with you before proceeding. Any extra work and associated charges are agreed upon in advance.

Painting:
All coats, including the finishing coat, are applied using high-quality products and following established safety guidelines. A project manager reviews progress throughout to confirm work is on track.

Finishing Touches:
After painting is complete, all tools, masking materials, and debris are removed from the property. We walk the exterior to identify any touch-ups before moving to the final step.

Final Walk-Through:
The crew completes their own inspection first, then invites you to join. Any remaining questions are addressed, and we confirm that the result aligns with your expectations.

Exterior Painting for Decatur Homes

Decatur homes range from older bungalows with detailed trim to newer builds with modern siding and bold front doors. Over time, sun, humidity, and storms can cause paint to chalk, fade, or peel, particularly on south-facing walls, trim, and exposed wood. Our residential exterior painting services are designed to respond to those conditions.

Surfaces We Cover

We work on a range of residential surfaces: wood and fiber cement siding, brick accents, stucco, and painted trim around windows and doors. Our painters also refresh shutters, porch posts, railings, and garage doors so the entire exterior feels cohesive when the project is complete. Each material is prepped and coated with products suited to that surface.

Scheduling, Weather & Daily Disruption

Local weather plays an important role in scheduling and product choice. We pay close attention to temperature, humidity, and rain forecasts during planning, which helps us select appropriate application windows and gives your new finish a strong opportunity to cure properly.

We know that working around your home affects daily routines. We communicate start times, the areas being worked on each day, and any temporary access changes to minimize disruption. Crews clean up at the end of each workday and at project completion, so your driveway, walkways, and outdoor areas stay usable throughout.

Signs Your Home May Need New Exterior Paint

Common signs your home may be ready for new exterior paint include:

• Peeling or flaking paint on siding, trim, or doors
• Noticeable fading, especially on the sunny sides of the home
• Hairline cracks in caulk or bare spots at joints
• Dark streaks, mildew, or stains that don’t wash away easily

Commercial & Multi-Unit Exteriors in Decatur

A clean, well-maintained exterior helps attract customers, supports your brand, and reassures tenants that the building is cared for. We provide commercial exterior painting services for storefronts, offices, and small apartment buildings in and around Decatur. We also offer interior painting services for businesses that want a complete refresh inside and out.

Our project managers coordinate with owners or property managers to plan schedules that reduce impact on daily operations. We can sequence work so entrances remain accessible when possible and clearly mark areas where painting is in progress. The same focus on prep, materials, and written warranties we bring to residential work applies to every commercial project, with a final walk-through to confirm the result aligns with your expectations.

Additional Exterior Services

A complete exterior refresh often involves more than new paint on siding. 360° Painting of DeKalb County offers a range of additional services that address the full scope of outdoor surfaces on residential and commercial properties in the Decatur area.

Power Washing:
Power washing removes accumulated dirt, mildew, algae, and loose paint from exterior surfaces. In a humid climate, this step is standard preparation before any exterior coating project and helps new paint bond cleanly to the surface.

Deck Staining & Fence Painting:
Wood decks and fences face constant exposure to moisture, UV light, and foot traffic. Staining and painting these surfaces helps protect the wood and maintain the appearance of outdoor living spaces between full repaints.

Wood Staining:
For natural wood features, including siding, trim, and architectural details, staining offers a finish that enhances the grain while providing protection from the elements.

Concrete Staining & Epoxy Flooring:
Driveways, patios, walkways, and garage floors are part of the exterior picture too. Concrete staining and epoxy floor coatings extend our service scope to hardscape surfaces, giving your entire property a more finished and cohesive appearance.

Sanding and Preparatory Work:
For surfaces that need more than a standard wash before coating, we provide dedicated sanding and prep services to ensure the substrate is ready to accept the new finish properly.

How Will You Protect My Landscaping and Outdoor Spaces?
