Project Description

This exterior house repaint focused on refreshing a 1800 square foot home in Cary, NC, while addressing areas of damaged wood. The siding received two full coats of Sherwin-Williams Super Paint in Pure White, giving the home a clean and updated look.

Trim was painted with one coat to match the new color scheme and sharpen the overall appearance. Along with painting, several sections of rotted wood were replaced to create a solid surface before applying paint.

The exterior painting project was completed over five to six days. By combining repairs with painting, the home not only looks better but also has stronger protection moving forward.

Background Story:

The homeowner noticed areas of wood damage starting to show on the exterior. Over time, exposure to weather can cause wood to break down, which affects both appearance and durability.

Alvarez Painting approached this project with a focus on fixing the problem first, then repainting the home so everything looked consistent. Instead of painting over damaged areas, the team replaced the affected wood before moving into the repaint process.

This approach helped the final result look clean from every angle. It also gave the homeowner peace of mind knowing the exterior was updated the right way, not just covered up.

Scope of Services:

  • Exterior House Repaint: The full exterior was repainted using a two-coat process to provide even coverage and long-lasting results.
  • Siding Repaint: All siding surfaces were coated in Pure White to create a fresh and uniform look across the home.
  • Trim Painting: Trim areas were painted to match and frame the siding, helping define the home’s structure.
  • Wood Rot Repair: Damaged sections of wood were removed and replaced before painting to create a stable surface.
  • Carpentry Prep Work: Basic carpentry repairs were completed to support the repaint and improve overall durability.

Paint Products Used:

  • Sherwin-Williams Super Paint
  • Sheen Satin
  • Color Pure White SW7005

Project Cost:

A project like this typically costs around $6,000 to $9,000, depending on the amount of repair work needed.

Results:

After completing the repaint and repairs, the home now has a bright and updated exterior. The Pure White color gives it a clean look that stands out while still fitting the neighborhood.

The repaired wood areas blend in with the rest of the siding, so there are no visible problem spots. This exterior house repaint not only improved curb appeal but also helped extend the life of the home’s exterior.

If you are seeing signs of wood damage on your home, now is a good time to take care of it before it spreads. Pairing repairs with an exterior house repaint is one of the best ways to protect your home and improve how it looks.
