You’re not just getting a fresh coat of paint. You’re getting protection against Michigan’s unpredictable weather, increased property value, and the peace of mind that comes with professional-grade work.
When your exterior painting is done right, you won’t be repainting in two years. You’ll have weather-resistant coverage that stands up to Utica’s changing seasons, from harsh winters to humid summers.
Interior projects transform your living space into something that actually reflects your style. No more staring at outdated colors or scuff marks that make your home feel tired.
Legends Construction LLC brings over 10 years of painting expertise to Utica homes and businesses. We’re two brothers who understand that your property isn’t just another job—it’s where you live, work, and build memories.
We’ve been serving Macomb County for two years as Legends Construction, but our painting experience runs much deeper. We know Utica’s housing stock, from the common siding exteriors to the lakefront properties that face unique weather challenges.
Our approach is straightforward: quality work at competitive pricing, with the goal of earning your business again. When you’re satisfied enough to call us for your next project, we know we’ve done our job right.
We start with an honest assessment of your project. Whether it’s interior rooms that need refreshing or exterior surfaces showing weather damage, we’ll explain exactly what needs to be done and why.
Preparation comes next, and it’s where most painting contractors cut corners. We don’t. Proper surface prep—cleaning, scraping, sanding, and priming—determines whether your paint job lasts three years or fifteen.
Application follows our proven methods. We use quality paints suited for Michigan’s climate and apply them with techniques that eliminate streaks, drips, and the amateur mistakes that show up once everything dries.

Our residential services cover everything from single-room touch-ups to whole-house transformations. Interior painting includes proper wall preparation, premium paint application, and protection of your furniture and floors throughout the process.
Exterior painting addresses Utica’s specific challenges. Many homes here have siding that requires specialized knowledge, and lakefront properties face additional moisture concerns that generic contractors often miss.
Commercial projects get the same attention to detail, whether you need office interiors refreshed or building exteriors that make the right impression. We understand that business operations can’t stop for painting, so we work efficiently and minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Quality exterior painting should last 7-10 years in Utica, depending on your home’s exposure and the preparation work done beforehand. Michigan’s weather is tough on paint—freeze-thaw cycles, UV exposure, and moisture all take their toll.
The key is proper surface preparation and using paints formulated for our climate. We see too many paint jobs that start failing after 2-3 years because corners were cut during prep or inferior materials were used.
Homes near the lakes face additional challenges from humidity and occasional flooding, which is why we pay special attention to moisture protection and primer selection for these properties.
Our interior painting includes complete surface preparation, protection of your furniture and floors, primer application where needed, and two coats of premium paint. We also handle minor wall repairs like filling nail holes and smoothing rough patches.
Color consultation is part of the service if you need help choosing. We consider your lighting, existing furnishings, and personal preferences to help you select colors you’ll love long-term.
Cleanup is thorough—we remove all materials, vacuum any debris, and leave your space ready to enjoy. Most interior projects are completed within 2-3 days, depending on the scope of work.
Yes, we work on both residential homes and commercial properties throughout Utica and Macomb County. Our residential experience ranges from single rooms to complete house painting, both interior and exterior.
Commercial projects include office buildings, retail spaces, and industrial facilities. We understand that business operations need to continue, so we schedule work to minimize disruption and can often complete projects during off-hours or weekends.
Whether it’s a homeowner wanting to refresh their living room or a business owner needing their building’s exterior updated, we bring the same attention to quality and customer satisfaction to every project.
Older homes require extra attention during prep work, and we see plenty of them in Utica. Many have multiple layers of paint that need careful removal, especially around windows and trim where buildup affects operation.
We start with thorough cleaning to remove years of dirt and grime, then scrape loose or peeling paint. Problem areas get sanded smooth, and any wood damage gets repaired before priming. This prep work takes time, but it’s what separates a professional job from one that fails quickly.
Lead paint is a consideration in pre-1978 homes, so we follow EPA guidelines for safe removal and disposal. We’re certified to handle these situations properly, protecting both your family and our crew during the process.
Our pricing reflects efficient operations and fair markup, not the overhead of large companies or the corner-cutting of low-bid contractors. We’re a family business without layers of management, so more of your payment goes toward materials and skilled labor.
We provide detailed estimates that break down labor, materials, and prep work so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. No surprise charges or change orders unless you request additional work beyond the original scope.
Quality materials cost more upfront but save money long-term through extended paint life. We use professional-grade paints that cover better and last longer than the contractor-grade products many competitors use to keep their bids low.
Property protection starts before any paint comes out. We cover plants, outdoor furniture, and walkways with plastic sheeting and drop cloths. Delicate landscaping near the house gets extra attention with cardboard barriers and careful masking.
Power washing is done with appropriate pressure settings to clean surfaces without damaging siding or forcing water into places it shouldn’t go. We’re experienced with Utica’s common siding types and know how to clean them effectively without causing problems.
During painting, we use controlled application methods that minimize overspray and drips. Any accidental contact with landscaping or property gets cleaned immediately while the paint is still wet and easier to remove.
