Residential & Commercial Painting Services
West Ashley House Painting and Concrete Floor Coatings
Between the Ashley and the Stono, homes sit on open lots that take full afternoon sun and damp river mornings. Siding chalks, trim splits, and old finishes give up early. We repaint interiors and exteriors, repair rotted wood and failing stucco, and coat concrete floors for homes and businesses across West Ashley.

Why West Ashley
Chooses Charleston Painting Contractors
01
Licensed & Guaranteed
Every surface our crew paints carries a three year guarantee against peeling, cracking, and blistering. We are licensed, insured, and bonded, and EPA Lead-Safe certified for the pre-1978 houses that fill this side of the river.
02
BUILT FOR SUN
Wide lots and thin shade mean west-facing walls take direct heat all afternoon, then sit damp until the sun clears the trees. We select coatings and prep methods rated for that swing so the finish holds its color and its grip.
03
REAL SURFACE PREP
Chalked siding, split trim, and hairline wall cracks get corrected before primer, not buried under it. Most of what makes a paint job last happens before the first color coat goes on.
04
No Surprise Pricing
Your estimator walks the property with you, measures the real condition of the siding, trim, and interior surfaces, and prices carpentry, prep, materials, labor, and cleanup up front. One written number, itemized, with nothing added later.
Interior Painting
One room or the entire house, the process starts with protection: floors and furniture covered, edges masked, walls patched and sanded, trim and doors cleaned and caulked. You get the same crew from start to finish, a tidy site at the end of each day, and a walkthrough before we call it complete. Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams products, with low-VOC water-based lines available, and three years of coverage on the work.
Exterior Painting
Full sun and humid mornings wear down West Ashley exteriors faster than most people expect, especially older siding and wood trim. We soft wash the surface, scrape and sand every failing area, spot prime bare wood, and caulk the joints letting water in behind the finish. Siding, trim, shutters, soffits, columns, and doors all get the same treatment, and the result stands behind our three year guarantee.
Outdoor Spaces
Porches, carports, decks, and fences see use nearly year round on this side of the Ashley. We repaint doors, stairs, railings, columns, and porch ceilings, then clean, stain, and seal deck boards and exposed wood so they keep their color through summer. Concrete patio or garage slab in the same project? Be sure to ask about our Penntek floor coatings!
Historic Restoration
West Ashley holds a wide range of Charleston’s older housing, from Avondale bungalows to the properties along Ashley River Road. Those homes want period-correct color and a careful hand, and the Sherwin Williams Historic Colors of Charleston line gives us the palette to work from. Century-old or built last year, we match the character of the house instead of fighting it.
Drywall Repair
Shelf anchors, settling cracks, and water stains left by an old roof or plumbing leak all need attention before any primer goes down. We look at what caused the damage first, cut out and patch the affected section, then sand and seal it so the repair disappears under the finish coat instead of telegraphing through it.
Wood Rot Repair
Soft sills and spongy trim are common here, particularly on elevations that stay wet until midmorning. We check window frames, louvers, shutters, HVAC covers, siding boards, stair treads, and railings, then cut out and replace what has gone bad before we prime and paint. Catching it at the trim keeps it out of your framing.
Stucco Repair
Stucco that has cracked or started to crumble is doing more than hurting curb appeal, it is holding water against the wall. We remove the failed material from the foundation or siding, address what caused it, resurface the area, and color match the repair so the patch reads as part of the wall instead of a bandage on it.
Ceiling Texture & Wall Paper Removal
Popcorn ceilings and dated wallpaper age a room faster than the paint color ever will. Book an assessment and we will price removal alongside the rest of the job. The texture comes down safely, the surface gets smoothed and finished, and brittle wallpaper comes off without tearing up the drywall behind it.
Estimate and Assessment
Our estimators arrive on time and walk the property with you. They evaluate the condition of the existing paint and materials, flag any carpentry or repairs the job will need, and put prep, materials, labor, and cleanup in writing before work starts. Call 843-737-5770 for your free West Ashley painting estimate.
Color Consultation
Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore offer thousands of options, which is exactly the problem. We narrow it to colors that suit your house and the way light moves across it, then put real samples up inside and out so you can judge them morning and evening. We will also recommend the sheen that protects the finish best in each room.
Penntek Concrete Floor Coatings
Penntek polyaspartic and epoxy systems turn a plain slab into a floor that cleans with a mop and shrugs off stains, chemicals, and heavy traffic. Garages, patios, workshops, and commercial floors all qualify. Pick from a range of colors, finishes, and custom options for a seamless surface that keeps your West Ashley floors looking sharp for years.
