You won’t worry about paint failure when the next storm hits. Our weather-resistant exterior painting services are designed specifically for Sterling Heights’ challenging climate – from those 32 inches of annual snow to summer heat that cracks inferior paint jobs.
Your neighbors will notice the difference immediately. Fresh, vibrant color that enhances your home’s curb appeal while providing genuine protection against Michigan’s harsh elements.
No more embarrassing peeling or fading that makes your property look neglected. Just professional results that maintain their beauty season after season.
We’ve been perfecting exterior painting in Michigan for over a decade, and we’ve been serving Sterling Heights homeowners for two years as Legends Construction LLC. As a family-owned company run by two brothers, we understand what it means to take personal pride in our work.
We know Sterling Heights homes face unique challenges. The combination of lake-effect weather, temperature swings from -2°F to 80°F, and 33 inches of annual rainfall demands more than standard painting approaches.
That’s why we focus on two things that matter most: superior quality work and competitive pricing that doesn’t compromise results.
First, we evaluate your home’s exterior surfaces and discuss your goals. We’ll identify any areas needing repair – common in Sterling Heights due to water damage and wood rot from our climate.
Next comes thorough preparation. We power wash, scrape failing paint, sand rough surfaces, and prime everything properly. This step separates professional results from DIY disasters.
Finally, we apply premium exterior paint designed for Michigan weather. Two coats minimum, with attention to detail that ensures even coverage and clean lines. We protect your landscaping and clean up completely before considering the job finished.

Your exterior painting project includes everything needed for lasting results. We handle siding, trim, doors, windows, decks, and fences – any exterior surface that needs protection or refreshing.
Sterling Heights homes often require additional services due to our climate. We provide wood repair for rot damage, caulking for weather sealing, and surface preparation that addresses the specific challenges of lakefront properties and homes exposed to harsh winter conditions.
We use only high-quality paints selected for their ability to withstand temperature extremes, moisture, and UV exposure. Popular color choices in Sterling Heights include sophisticated greys, classic whites, and rich reds that complement the area’s architectural styles.
Late spring through early fall offers the ideal conditions for exterior painting in Sterling Heights. We typically schedule projects between May and September when temperatures stay consistently between 60-85°F.
Michigan weather can be unpredictable, so we monitor conditions closely. We won’t paint during wet weather, extreme temperatures, or when high winds could affect quality. This patience protects your investment and ensures the paint cures properly.
Planning ahead is smart since good weather windows fill up quickly. Contact us in early spring to secure your preferred timing for summer projects.
Quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years in Sterling Heights when applied correctly with proper preparation. However, this depends heavily on your home’s exposure to weather and the quality of materials used.
Homes facing north or getting less direct sunlight often see longer-lasting results. Properties near water or in areas with heavy tree coverage may need attention sooner due to increased moisture and debris.
We use premium paints specifically chosen for Michigan’s climate challenges. With proper surface prep and application, most homeowners enjoy 8-10 years before needing a full repaint, though occasional touch-ups on high-wear areas like trim may be needed.
Yes, and it’s often necessary in Sterling Heights due to our harsh winters and moisture exposure. We commonly address wood rot, loose siding, failed caulking, and surface damage before any paint touches your home.
Water damage is particularly common on Sterling Heights homes, especially those near lakefront areas. We’ll identify problem areas during our initial assessment and discuss repair options that fit your budget.
Skipping necessary repairs is like putting a bandage over a wound – it might look better temporarily, but the underlying problem will resurface and ruin your paint job. We handle repairs right the first time.
Our 10+ years of Michigan painting experience means we understand what works in Sterling Heights’ specific climate conditions. We’re not learning on your property – we know which materials perform best and which preparation steps are essential.
As a family-owned business run by two brothers, we have a personal stake in every project. Our goal isn’t just completing the job, but making you so satisfied that you’ll call us for your next project and recommend us to neighbors.
We focus on competitive pricing without cutting corners on quality. You get professional results, premium materials, and the peace of mind that comes from working with experienced local contractors who stand behind their work.
Exterior painting costs in Sterling Heights typically range from $1.50 to $4.00 per square foot, depending on your home’s size, condition, and complexity. A typical 2,500 square foot home ranges from $2,900 to $6,900 for complete exterior painting.
Several factors affect pricing: the number of stories, surface preparation needed, trim complexity, and paint quality selected. Homes requiring significant repairs or having intricate architectural details will be on the higher end of the range.
We provide detailed, written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees – just honest pricing for quality work.
Exterior painting during Sterling Heights winters isn’t recommended due to temperature and moisture conditions. Paint needs temperatures above 50°F to cure properly, and winter weather rarely provides suitable conditions.
Attempting winter painting often leads to poor adhesion, uneven coverage, and premature failure. The money saved by off-season pricing isn’t worth the risk of having to repaint sooner.
We do offer interior painting services year-round, which is actually an ideal time for indoor projects. Planning your exterior painting for the following spring or summer ensures optimal conditions and lasting results.
