What changes here

Painting in Mandeville

Mandeville sits on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain under a heavy live oak canopy, and shade is what decides how an exterior here ages.

Under the canopy

Shade keeps moisture on a wall long after the sun has moved off it. Under a heavy oak canopy the recoat window stretches out, and the shaded elevation is the one that sets the schedule for the whole house.

Where we work in Mandeville

The four areas we are in most often, and what each one does to a paint film.

Old Mandeville

The lakefront grid of older houses. Deep porches, exposed rafter tails and a lot of hand work on trim.

Beau Chêne

Mature landscaping and dense canopy on the western edge of town, which means shaded elevations and slow drying.

Fontainebleau

Known locally for its oaks. Same story as Beau Chêne, and the same north-wall problem.

Lewisburg

Closer to the water, where overnight moisture is the constraint on start times more than temperature is.
