What changes your price
- • Condition of the current paint — peeling or failing paint means more scraping, sanding, and priming.
- • Siding type — wood, fiber cement, vinyl, and painted brick each prep and coat differently.
- • Stories and access — two-story homes and steep rooflines need more equipment and time.
- • How much is included — trim, fascia, soffits, shutters, and front doors can be in or out of scope.
- • Number of coats — two coats is our standard for a job that lasts in Memphis weather.
