WHAT'S INCLUDED
Exterior painting that holds up to Carolina weather.
A South Carolina exterior takes a beating from UV, humidity, pollen, and the occasional pop-up storm. We prep every surface properly before a drop of finish goes on. Every Palmetto exterior gets washed, scraped, sanded, caulked, and primed before the first coat of finish goes on. We use Sherwin-Williams Emerald and Duration on siding, premium oil-bond primers on bare wood, and acrylic enamels on trim and shutters. Two full coats, hand-brushed where the eye sees it. The result is a finish that stays sharp through five Columbia summers, not two.
- Soft-wash siding, brick, and stucco
- Scrape, sand, and feather failing paint
- Caulk gaps, replace rotten trim, prime bare wood
- Two coats of premium Sherwin-Williams finish
- Trim, shutters, doors, and porches
- Daily cleanup, ladders down by 6pm
- Final walk-through and warranty

Several rooms painted in my house and could not be happier with how it turned out. The best professionals I know. Grateful for their professionalism and commitment to excellence.
We had a great experience with Palmetto Painting of Columbia. Communication was excellent from start to finish, pricing was fair, and the quality of work exceeded our expectations. The painters were respectful, efficient, and took pride in their work. Will definitely use them again for future projects.
