Painting Systems Built for Coastal Conditions
Homes in the region deal with humidity that hangs in the air, sun that bakes color right off a surface, and the kind of surprise rain showers that make wood swell before you can blink. If the exterior hasn’t been maintained in a while, you’ll notice peeling around the trim, chalking on the siding, soft spots in the wood. It’s the kind of slow wear that creeps up on a house.
That’s why our exterior painting is built around durability first—clean, sharp lines and rich color, yes, but also coatings that actually hold up in our climate.

Exterior Painting Services with Wade Paint Co.
Painting your home on a schedule is much cheaper than waiting for wood rot and mold removal. Because we live in Charleston, our homes are impacted by both a high concentration of salt in the air as well as cold fronts that go below freezing and back again within 48 hours.
With so many historic neighborhoods and culturally significant wood structures, these short freezes and thaws lead to the rapid expansion of your home sidings. Without the paint and caulking applied the right way it will crack, bubble, and peel.
Coastal homes encounter distinctive challenges because of their proximity to the ocean. The saltwater exposure and high humidity levels cause extra wear and tear, making it crucial to use specialized paints and techniques tailored for coastal environments.
Hiring a house painter not only freshens your home’s feel but can also protect and enhance your investment. Wade Paint Co has painted and restored some of our city’s most iconic homes across Downtown Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Daniel Island, and West Ashley
So when it’s the ideal time for your next topcoat, give Wade Paint Co a call. We’d be honored to walk you through our process to secure your home and make it beautiful again.
