Exterior Painting
Upstate SC’s in-house exterior painting team — meticulous prep, two real coats, and spotless cleanup from a single local headquarters.
Increase your home’s curb appeal with a repaint. We’re the best when it comes to residential painting services. We’ll start with the necessary prep work. This can be power washing, stucco patching, wood patching or replacement, scraping, sanding, priming, and caulking. Our painting team has the expertise you need for your next paint job including deck painting or staining.
After the prep work is done, our paint crew will apply two fresh topcoats. Remember that the preparation work is where the craftsmanship really matters! Moreover, we can paint as much or as little on the outside of your house as you would like. Additionally, we can paint outdoor surfaces like siding, soffits, fascia, trim, doors, windows, and garage doors. If you’re on a budget and looking to get the most bang for your buck, you could just get the siding painted.
Lastly, painting siding requires the least amount of detailed work, so it’s a great way to get the majority of your house painted for the lowest amount. Don’t delay, get your easy and convenient exterior home painting quote from our team today!

Is painting my house exterior worth it?
Yes, regularly painting the exterior of your house is worth it and will save you money.
A fresh coat of paint can completely transform a home, especially if your old paint is worn and faded. Exterior paint also protects the outdoor surfaces of your home from damage, deterioration, and water leaks caused by the weather. For savvy homeowners, exterior painting is a necessary maintenance task performed every 3–8 years.

Minor Home Exterior Repairs
Waiting too long between exterior paint jobs leads to expensive repairs including rotted wood and water intrusion. For example, the average cost to replace rotted wood siding or trim is $1,800 if you are lucky. Combined with the additional labor needed to scrape, sand, prime, caulk, and repair peeling paint, it can get expensive. Fortunately, all of this is prevented by repainting the exterior every few years.
Major Repair Costs
In the worst cases, exterior damage can lead to structural failures. Major exterior repairs or structural damages can range from $10,000 to $60,000 for extensive replacement work. Whether you DIY or hire, maintaining exterior surfaces regularly is a small price to avoid major headaches down the line.
What’s included in my exterior home painting quote?
When you hire Helpful Hand’s award-winning exterior painters, you can rest easy that we’ve included everything required to do the job right.
All exterior painting estimates include labor, materials, tip, the paint we’ll use, and a clear list of surfaces being painted — so there are no surprises.
In-House Crews. One Local Location.
No subcontractors. Every painter is a trained, background-checked Helpful Hand employee. We manage quality, schedule, and safety from our single Upstate SC headquarters so you get consistent results on every project.
Licensed & Insured
We carry extensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage to protect you and your home in all cases. We’re also EPA lead-safe certified and can safely handle historic projects when required.
Our Guarantee
Your outdoor painting job includes a 30-day touch-up guarantee and a 3-year workmanship warranty. We take pride in clean sites, crisp lines, and durable finishes.
What paint do you use?
Paint quality drives longevity. We typically specify Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore exterior systems. SuperPaint is a solid entry level; upgrading to Duration or Emerald adds years of protection. Benjamin Moore’s Aura is also an excellent premium option.
Latex vs. Oil
Modern acrylic latex exteriors breathe properly and are just as durable as oil in most cases. We’ll only use oil-based primers where they make sense (e.g., knot sealing) to prevent bleed-through.
Who picks colors?
We don’t offer color consultations. You (or your designer) choose the colors; we handle the prep and professional application. We can share basic best-practice guidance (e.g., flat/satin for siding, semi-gloss for trim, gloss/semi-gloss for front doors), but the final selection is yours.
