What changes here

Painting in Covington

Covington’s downtown sits inside the Division of St. John, a grid of squares within squares that has been on the National Register since 1981. Painting inside it is not the same job as painting a new subdivision off Tammany Parkway, and pricing it as though it were is how these jobs go wrong.

Older stock

Old siding, old millwork and old paint mean most of the day goes into preparation. On an older frontage the finish is only ever as good as what was scraped, filled and primed underneath it.

Where we work in Covington

Where the work concentrates, and what each area asks for.

Division of St. John

The historic downtown district. Columbia Street, Lee Lane and Boston Street. Older facades, detailed trim, and a district with its own expectations.

Claiborne Hill

Across the Bogue Falaya, off Tammany Parkway. Newer stock and a different set of surfaces.

The West 30s

One of Covington’s older residential neighborhoods, with the housing stock and the hand work that comes with it.

Along the Bogue Falaya

River-adjacent lots where humidity sits higher and morning start times move with it.

What Covington does to a paint job

Four things that change the work here, and what each one means for the schedule and the price.

A historic district has rules

The Division of St. John has a Historic District Commission, and exterior work inside the district can carry review requirements that are very much easier to satisfy before colors get picked than afterwards. Have that conversation first.

Oak canopy, same as the rest of the north shore

Shade keeps surfaces damp. The elevation taking the least sun through the day is reliably the one that fails first, and it needs its own prep, its own product and sometimes a visit of its own.

The river adds humidity

Lots near the Bogue Falaya hold their moisture noticeably longer through the morning than lots a few streets back from the water do. So we check the surface against the dew point on site.

Older facades need hand work

Downtown trim profiles do not spray well. Brush work is slower. On that stock it is also the only thing that ends up looking right.

What we run here

Every service, in Covington

Interior and exterior, in all twelve. Inside walls and outside surfaces run out of the same shop, so the crew that quotes your kitchen is the crew that quotes your siding.

On the houses people live in

Interior Home Painting

One room or the whole house, with floors and furniture covered before the first can opens.

Exterior Home Painting

Curb appeal is the reason people call. Weather protection is the reason it matters here.

Cabinet Painting

A new kitchen look without replacing a single door. We degrease, sand and spray for a finish that survives daily use.

Kitchen Remodel

Paint, cabinet upgrades and the finish work that ties the two together.

Deck Staining and Painting

Stains and coatings picked for wood that sits in full sun and heavy rain, so the boards stop drinking water.

Pressure Washing

Dirt, grime and mildew come off before any paint goes on. It is also a service on its own, for storefronts, walkways and parking structures cleaned on a set schedule.
