Exterior painting and repair

Alabama sun and humidity are tough on wood siding, trim and windows. Before we paint, we replace rotten wood, re-glaze and repair windows, re-caulk joints and scrape and prime bare wood. We have repaired and painted homes across Birmingham, Homewood, Hoover’s Bluff Park, Vestavia Hills and Alabaster – including a mortar-washed brick exterior in Greystone that gave a dated house a soft, timeless look.

Interior painting

Inside, preparation is everything: furniture and floors protected, nail holes and cracks filled, walls sanded and primed, and clean, straight lines at ceilings and trim. We paint walls, ceilings, trim, doors and cabinets, including tall foyers and two-story living rooms.

Choosing the right color

Color looks different on a wall than on a chip. We recommend testing large samples in the room, looking at them morning and evening, and thinking about the fixed elements – floors, stone, brick – before choosing. Our journal has guides on choosing colors and on interior and exterior painting if you want to read more.

Preparation for interior painting

  • Furniture moved and covered, floors protected.
  • Holes, cracks and dents filled and sanded.
  • Stains sealed, glossy surfaces de-glossed and primed.
  • Clean lines at ceilings, trim and cabinets.

Preparation for exterior painting

  • Pressure washing and mildew treatment.
  • Rotten wood replaced, windows glazed, joints caulked.
  • Bare wood primed with the right primer for the surface.
  • Two finish coats of premium exterior paint.

SouthFace recently completed a kitchen and bathroom remodel in my 1920s condominium. The kitchen portion of the remodel included opening a passthrough between the kitchen and dining room, and relocating the range, sink and dishwasher. The kitchen and bathroom were completely gutted and rebuilt using new designs. The project also included painting and refinishing the hardwood floors throughout the unit. Remodeling a 100 year old structure brings a unique set of challenges. Owen, the project manager, offered design ideas that greatly improved upon my initial ideas for the project and complemented the historic character of the unit. SouthFace’s team of craftsman did an excellent job in translating the design into a wonderful living space. Since I was out of the country for nearly the entire duration of the project, SouthFace had to coordinate across multiple time zones. Owen provided, at minimum, weekly video updates and contacted me when questions or issues arose. I can’t overstate how well Owen handled the remote coordination. SouthFace did an excellent job from inception through execution, completing the project in budget and on schedule. As a result, I recommend SouthFace as a remodeling contractor and I would use them again for another renovation project.

SouthFace Renovations did a great job repairing my chimney and roof. From a consult with Johnny to his workers completing the job I was so pleased I had chosen this company. They knew what caused the problem in the first place and it was fixed so I would not have this problem again. They did a very neat paint job and then did a great clean up job.

Johnny the contractor of SouthFace Renovations and Construction LLC and all his subcontractors did a great remodel job to our home. We are so happy with our new covered deck, tiled floors and interior paint work. It has been a very positive experience.

Johnny and his team did so many things at our house, I can’t even remember them all! We initially needed him to paint and repair the exterior of our house, and also tear down an old deck and spruce up the brick courtyard underneath. When other things come up (as they usually do with an older house) he did most free of charge, or gave us a great rate. We definitely felt like he had our best interest at heart. We were preparing to put our house on the market, so we didn’t want to sink a ton of money into something we would be leaving. All his hard work worked – our house sold 9 days after we put it on the market! Aside from everything looking great, Johnny and his team were so thoughtful and friendly. I would highly recommend SouthFace Renovations for your renovating needs – you won’t regret it!

My wife and I contacted SouthFace for some interior work on our new home we purchased. We wanted to separate two bedrooms that had been joined together and have them painted. The outcome was amazing. It well exceeded our expectations. The staff were professional and helpful. We would recommend them to anyone.

Questions

Common questions about painting & exteriors

How long does exterior paint last?

With proper preparation and premium paint, typically eight to twelve years – longer on protected sides of the house.

Do you repair rotten wood?

Yes. We replace rotten siding, trim and fascia before painting so the new paint is not hiding damage.
