You’re not just getting paint on your walls. You’re getting years of protection that keeps your biggest investment looking sharp and weather-ready.
When we finish your house painting project, you’ll have that fresh, clean look that makes you proud to pull into your driveway. Your neighbors notice. Your property value reflects it. And you won’t be thinking about repainting for years to come.
The right exterior house painting contractor does more than apply paint – we prep surfaces properly, use quality materials, and apply techniques that stand up to Memphis weather. That means fewer touch-ups, better curb appeal, and real protection for your home’s exterior.
Legends Construction LLC brings over 10 years of painting experience to Memphis homeowners who want quality work at fair prices. We’re not the biggest painting company in town, but we’re the ones you can count on.
Our approach is straightforward: do excellent work, charge competitive rates, and make sure every customer wants to call us again. It’s worked for over a decade, and it’s why we’re expanding our crew to serve more Memphis families.
We handle everything from interior touch-ups to complete exterior transformations. When you work with local contractors who live here too, you get people who understand Memphis weather, Memphis homes, and what Memphis homeowners actually need.
First, we come out to look at your house and give you a clear, honest estimate. No surprises, no hidden costs – just what the job actually requires and what it’s going to cost.
Next comes the prep work, which is where most painting contractors cut corners. We don’t. We clean, scrape, sand, and prime properly because that’s what makes paint last. You’ll see us taking time on this step because it’s the foundation of everything else.
Then we apply quality paint using proven techniques. We protect your landscaping, keep work areas clean, and pay attention to details like trim work and edges. When we’re done, you get a walkthrough to make sure everything meets your standards before we consider the job complete.

Our house painting services cover everything your Memphis home needs. Interior painting for any room, from living spaces to bedrooms to kitchens. Exterior house painting that handles siding, trim, doors, and all the details that make your home look professionally finished.
We work with the paint brands and products that perform best in Michigan’s climate. That means choosing materials that handle temperature swings, moisture, and the wear that comes with real weather. Your paint job needs to last through Memphis winters and summers.
Whether you’re refreshing one room or doing a complete exterior makeover, you get the same attention to detail and commitment to quality. We’re not trying to rush through jobs to get to the next one – we’re trying to do work that keeps customers happy for years.
House painting costs in Memphis typically range from $3-6 per square foot for exterior work and $2-4 per square foot for interior, but the real answer depends on your specific project. Factors like surface condition, paint quality, prep work needed, and project size all affect the final price.
We give you detailed, written estimates that break down exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no “additional costs discovered during the project.” You’ll know upfront what quality materials cost, what proper prep work involves, and what our labor includes.
The cheapest bid isn’t always the best value. When contractors cut corners on prep work or use lower-grade materials, you end up repainting sooner. We price our work to deliver results that last, which actually saves you money over time.
Most exterior house painting projects in Memphis take 3-7 days, depending on your home’s size and condition. Weather plays a role too – we won’t paint in rain or extreme temperatures because it compromises the results.
The timeline breaks down like this: 1-2 days for prep work (cleaning, scraping, sanding, priming), 2-3 days for painting application, and additional time if multiple coats are needed. Larger homes or those requiring extensive prep work take longer.
We’d rather take the time to do it right than rush through and leave you with problems later. Quality prep work and proper drying time between coats are non-negotiable. When we give you a timeline, we stick to it, and we keep you updated if weather or other factors cause any changes.
For Memphis, Michigan’s climate, you need paint that handles temperature swings, moisture, and UV exposure. We typically recommend high-quality acrylic latex paints for exterior work because they expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking.
Brands like Sherwin Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Behr offer exterior paints specifically formulated for Midwest climates. These paints resist fading, chalking, and peeling better than cheaper alternatives. For trim and doors, we often use semi-gloss or gloss finishes that clean easily and resist wear.
Interior paint selection depends on the room’s use. Kitchens and bathrooms need moisture-resistant formulations, while living areas can use standard latex paints. We help you choose the right paint type and finish for each surface, so you get maximum durability and the look you want.
Yes, we provide free, detailed estimates for all painting projects in Memphis. We come to your home, assess the work needed, and give you a written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline.
Our estimates include everything: surface preparation, primer, paint, labor, and cleanup. We don’t hit you with surprise costs halfway through the project. If we discover additional work that wasn’t visible during the initial assessment, we discuss it with you before proceeding.
The estimate process usually takes 30-45 minutes. We measure the areas to be painted, check surface conditions, discuss your color preferences, and answer your questions. You’ll have a clear understanding of what the project involves and what it costs before we start any work.
Most of the prep work is our job, but there are a few things you can do to help the project go smoothly. Remove or cover outdoor furniture, grills, and decorations near the house. Trim back bushes and plants that are growing against the siding – we need access to all surfaces.
Make sure we have access to water and electricity for our equipment. If you have security systems or outdoor lighting that might interfere with our work, let us know ahead of time so we can work around them.
Inside your home, remove items from walls that share exterior surfaces, especially if we’re doing extensive prep work. The vibration from scraping and sanding can knock things loose. We handle all the serious prep work – power washing, scraping, sanding, and priming – so you don’t need to worry about that part.
Quality exterior paint jobs in Memphis should last 7-12 years, depending on your home’s exposure to weather, the paint quality used, and how well the prep work was done initially. South-facing walls typically need attention sooner because of UV exposure.
Signs it’s time to repaint include chalking (powdery residue when you touch the paint), peeling, cracking, or fading. If you’re seeing bare wood or metal, don’t wait – that’s when real damage starts happening to your home’s structure.
Regular maintenance helps extend paint life. Keep gutters clean, trim vegetation away from siding, and address small problems before they become big ones. When we do your initial paint job with proper prep and quality materials, you’re looking at the longer end of that timeline before needing a complete repaint.
