Protect Your Siding From Georgia Weather

Exterior painting services using durable coatings for homes in Norcross, Georgia.

Your home's exterior takes direct sun, humidity, and rain every day in Norcross, and when paint starts to peel or fade, the siding underneath becomes exposed to moisture and rot. Brothers Carpentry & Painting uses durable coatings suited for Georgia's climate to protect wood, fiber cement, and trim while improving curb appeal across Gwinnett, Fulton, and surrounding counties.

This service includes pressure washing to remove dirt and mildew, scraping and sanding of loose or flaking paint, priming of bare wood, application of two finish coats, and careful masking of windows, doors, and landscaping. You get a clean, even finish that holds its color longer and keeps water from soaking into siding joints and trim boards.

If your home in Norcross is due for repainting or showing signs of weathering, contact us to request an exterior painting estimate.

How Surface Prep Affects Your Paint's Lifespan

Brothers Carpentry & Painting starts by washing your siding with a pressure washer to remove pollen, mold, and chalky residue that would otherwise prevent paint from bonding in Norcross. Loose paint gets scraped away, rough edges are sanded smooth, and bare wood receives a coat of primer before any color goes on.

After the work is complete, your siding will have a uniform sheen with no visible brush marks or thin spots, and trim around windows and doors will show crisp, clean lines. Water will bead and roll off instead of soaking in, and the color won't fade or chalk as quickly under direct sunlight.

Quality materials are used for better color retention and protection, and the crew masks off brick, stone, and glass to keep overspray and drips from landing where they don't belong. This service does not include siding replacement or repair of rotted boards, but those issues are identified during prep so you know what to address before painting begins.

Things people want to know before scheduling

Exterior painting involves working around your landscaping, weather windows, and daily routine, so it helps to know what the process looks like and what you can expect once the crew is on site.

How long does it take to paint a house exterior?
Most single-family homes in Norcross take three to five days, depending on size, siding type, and the amount of prep work needed. Weather delays can extend the timeline if rain or high humidity prevents proper drying.
What kind of paint do you use?
Brothers Carpentry & Painting uses exterior-grade acrylic latex paints designed for Georgia's heat and humidity. These coatings resist mildew, hold color longer, and allow the siding to expand and contract without cracking.
Why does paint peel on some homes but not others?
Peeling usually happens when moisture gets trapped under the paint, either from poor surface prep, lack of primer, or water leaking through siding joints. Proper prep and quality materials help prevent early failure.
Do you paint in the summer?
Yes, but the crew schedules work during cooler parts of the day to avoid applying paint in direct afternoon sun. High heat can cause paint to dry too quickly and affect the finish.
What do you do to protect my plants and walkways?
Drop cloths and plastic sheeting are placed over shrubs, flower beds, and hardscaping near the work area. Overspray is minimized with careful masking and brush work on trim.
