Around downtown Apex
The homes near downtown and the old depot date from the early 1900s on: wood siding, deep porches and trim that's been painted many times. These houses need hand scraping, careful priming of bare wood, and often some carpentry to rebuild porch rails, steps and window sills worn down by weather. We take our time on them, because a fast job on an old house usually fails fast.
Newer construction across Apex
Most of Apex is newer. Neighborhoods like Scotts Mill, Haddon Hall, Bella Casa, Sweetwater and dozens of others were built from the 2000s through today. Those homes share some common needs:
- Builder-grade flat interior paint that scuffs easily and won't wash, ready for an upgrade through interior painting
- Nail pops and drywall cracks as new framing dries and settles, fixed through our drywall work
- Fiber cement siding that holds paint well, but has caulked joints that open up after several summers
- A first full exterior repaint coming due around the ten-year mark
Most of these neighborhoods have HOAs with approved color lists. We work within those rules and give you the product and color details for approval.
Red clay and new lots
New construction means freshly graded lots, and in Apex that means red clay. Until lawns fill in, rain splashes clay onto the lower siding, foundation and front steps, and it stains. A careful power wash with the right cleaner removes most fresh staining. It's also the first step before any exterior painting, along with fresh caulk at every joint.
Updates and remodels
Apex homeowners often want to personalize a builder-grade house: new trim colors, an accent wall, a better-looking bathroom. Our remodeling work includes micro cement, a seamless modern finish for showers, floors and counters that can go right over existing tile. We know how to apply it, and we take the time to do it right.
Before you list, or right after you move in
Apex homes sell quickly, and fresh neutral paint, clean trim and repaired drywall are among the first things buyers notice. If you're selling, we can repaint the main living areas and fix scuffs and nail pops on a schedule that matches your listing date. If you just bought, the best time to paint is before the furniture arrives. An empty house goes faster, costs less to protect and can usually be finished in a few days.
