Canton, MS #1 Painting Company

Yes. Wood siding painting is a significant part of our work in Canton, Mississippi. Older wood-framed homes need more careful prep than newer construction — thorough scraping of loose paint, sanding rough edges, filling any cracks or holes in the siding, caulking every joint and gap, and priming bare wood before topcoat. The prep is time-consuming but essential. Applying new paint directly over deteriorating old paint on a Canton, MS wood siding home guarantees early failure.

Homes built before 1978 in Canton, Mississippi may contain lead-based paint. If the existing paint is in good condition and not peeling or chalking, encapsulation — applying new paint over the lead paint without disturbing it — is a common and acceptable approach. If we need to scrape or sand areas with lead paint, we follow proper containment and disposal procedures to protect your family and our crew. We're happy to discuss your Canton home's specific situation during the free estimate.

Yes. We're experienced in working in occupied older Canton, Mississippi homes and minimizing disruption. We work room by room, move and protect all furniture, and keep the rest of the home livable throughout the project. Older homes sometimes have plaster walls rather than drywall — plaster requires slightly different prep (we skim over hairline cracks and use a PVA primer on bare plaster before painting) but doesn't require significantly more disruption to your daily routine.

For Canton, Mississippi and all of Madison County, we recommend Sherwin-Williams Duration or Emerald Exterior for most homes, and Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior as a strong alternative. Both are 100% acrylic formulations with excellent UV resistance and moisture resistance. For older wood siding homes in Canton, MS that have had moisture issues, we may also recommend an oil-based primer under the acrylic topcoat to maximize adhesion on weathered wood. We'll make a specific recommendation for your Canton home's surface type during the estimate.
