▸What painting services does Extreme Painting offer?

▸When is the best time to paint a house exterior in the North Carolina mountains?

Late spring through early fall, when temperatures stay above about 50°F and rain is less frequent. At Highlands' 4,100-foot elevation, the exterior season is shorter than the lowlands, so booking early in the season is smart.

▸How long does an exterior paint job last in the mountains?

With proper prep — pressure washing, scraping, caulking, and priming — a quality exterior job in Macon and Jackson counties typically lasts 7 to 10 years. Wet, high-elevation weather makes thorough prep the biggest factor in how long the finish holds.
