Michigan’s brutal winters and humid summers destroy cheap paint jobs in just 2-3 years. You end up repainting sooner, spending more, and dealing with peeling, cracking, and moisture damage that could have been avoided.
When we handle your painting project, you get protection that lasts 15-20 years. Your home stays beautiful through every season, your property value increases, and you avoid the headache of frequent touch-ups.
We use premium paints specifically chosen for South Lyon’s climate. No shortcuts, no surprises, just results that protect your investment.

South Lyon homeowners trust us because we understand local needs. From historic homes near Mill Pond to newer developments, we’ve painted them all.

We handle every type of painting project South Lyon homeowners need. Interior work includes walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and cabinets. Exterior services cover siding, brick, stucco, decks, and all trim work.
South Lyon’s mix of architectural styles – from charming colonials to modern builds – requires different approaches. We match our techniques to your home’s specific materials and age, ensuring compatibility and longevity.
Whether you’re refreshing a single room or transforming your entire home’s exterior, we bring the same attention to detail and quality materials to every project. Your satisfaction is what keeps us in business in this tight-knit community.
Quality exterior painting in South Lyon typically lasts 12-15 years when done properly with premium materials. Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles, humidity, and UV exposure are tough on paint, which is why surface preparation and paint selection matter so much.
We use paints specifically formulated for Midwest climates, with excellent adhesion and flexibility to handle temperature swings. Cheaper paint jobs might look good initially but often fail within 3-5 years, leaving you with peeling, cracking, and costly repairs.
The key is proper surface prep, quality primer, and two coats of premium exterior paint. This investment protects your home’s structure and saves money long-term by avoiding frequent repaints.
Our interior painting service includes complete surface preparation, priming when needed, two coats of premium paint, and thorough cleanup. We move and protect your furniture, cover floors, and ensure your home stays livable during the project.
Surface preparation varies by room condition but typically includes filling nail holes, light sanding, cleaning walls, and caulking gaps around trim. We use low-VOC paints that are safe for your family and dry with minimal odor.
We also handle color consultation if you need help choosing shades that work with your lighting and decor. Every project includes a final walkthrough to ensure you’re completely satisfied before we consider the job complete.
We price based on square footage, surface condition, and paint quality you choose. A typical South Lyon interior room (12×12) runs $800-$1,500 depending on prep work needed and paint grade selected.
Exterior projects depend on your home’s size, siding type, and current condition. Most South Lyon homes range $4,000-$8,000 for complete exterior painting. We always provide detailed written estimates with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
We offer competitive pricing because we work efficiently and maintain good relationships with suppliers. You’re paying for quality materials, proper techniques, and results that last – not inflated overhead or high-pressure sales tactics.
Interior painting continues year-round since temperature and humidity are controlled. For exterior work, we typically schedule from April through October when temperatures consistently stay above 50 degrees and humidity levels are manageable.
Michigan winters are too harsh for quality exterior paint application. Paint needs proper curing time and stable temperatures to form a durable bond. Rushing exterior work in cold weather leads to poor adhesion and early failure.
We book exterior projects in advance and maintain a waiting list for spring scheduling. Interior projects during winter months are actually ideal since your home is sealed up and we can control conditions perfectly for optimal paint curing.
We focus on two things that matter most to South Lyon homeowners: quality work and competitive pricing. While some companies cut corners to bid lower, we use proper techniques and premium materials to deliver results that last decades.
Our experience in South Lyon means we understand local home styles, common problem areas, and what paint systems work best in our climate. We’re not a large franchise – we’re local contractors who live in this community and depend on referrals.
You’ll work directly with us throughout your project. No sales teams, no subcontractors you’ve never met. Just experienced painters who take pride in their work and want you satisfied enough to recommend us to your neighbors.
For interior work, we typically schedule 2-4 weeks out depending on the season. Spring and fall are our busiest times as homeowners prepare for holidays or tackle winter projects.
Exterior painting requires more advance planning. We start booking spring and summer projects in February, with prime weather months (May-September) filling up quickly. South Lyon’s short exterior painting season creates high demand for quality contractors.
The best time to call is when you first start thinking about painting. We can schedule around your timeline and help you plan the project properly. Early booking also gives you better scheduling flexibility and ensures your project happens when you want it completed.
