Why Sandy Springs Homeowners Choose OVO for Exterior Painting
Fixed Pricing Before We Touch a Board
Your exterior painting estimate covers every surface — siding, trim, fascia, shutters, doors — with a total price locked in writing before work begins. No change orders mid-project. No additions at the end. The number your Sandy Springs painters quote is the number you pay.
A Project Manager on Your Property Every Day
Your dedicated project manager is on site from first power wash to final walkthrough — not checking in by phone from across town. You always know who is working on your home, what was completed today, and what is scheduled for tomorrow. That daily presence is how exterior house painting should work.
5 to 10-Year Written Warranty
Every exterior painting project is backed by a 5 to 10-year written warranty on workmanship and product. Delivered at your final walkthrough — not promised verbally and forgotten. If anything fails on your exterior house painting, we come back and make it right.
Your Property Stays Clean Throughout
Your landscaping, hardscape, and outdoor living areas are protected throughout the project. Your crew cleans up at the end of every workday — ladders stored, drop cloths folded, debris removed. Your yard and home stay clean throughout your entire exterior painting project.
How Sandy Springs Exterior Painting Projects Work
Free On-Site Estimate
Your estimator walks every exterior surface — siding, trim, fascia, shutters, doors, brick, and stucco — and talks through your goals, timeline, and any concerns. You get honest observations about what your home actually needs, a detailed scope, and a fixed-price written quote. No pressure. No follow-up calls asking if you have made a decision.
Full Surface Preparation
Power washing removes mildew, dirt, and loose paint. Your crew scrapes and sands every rough edge, caulks every gap and seam, and primes all bare wood and repaired areas. Your landscaping, hardscape, and windows are masked and protected throughout. This is the most labor-intensive part of any exterior home painting project — and the single biggest predictor of how long your finish lasts.
Two-Coat Finish Application
Two full coats of Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior go on after prep is complete. Your crew works section by section, board by board, with daily quality checks by your project manager. Everything is cleaned up at the end of each day — your home stays livable and your yard stays clear throughout the project.
Final Walkthrough and Warranty Handoff
You walk every surface with your crew lead before we call the project done. Anything that needs attention is handled the same day. Your 5-10 year written warranty is delivered to you in person at handoff — not mailed later. You keep our number. If anything comes up down the road, we answer.

What Affects Your Price
- Home size and number of stories — larger homes and multi-story homes require more material, more crew hours, and scaffolding for safe access
- Surface material — wood siding, HardiePlank, brick, stucco, and vinyl each require different prep methods and products
- Surface condition — the more scraping, caulking, and priming your home needs, the more labor goes into prep before exterior painting begins
- Number and complexity of trim elements — fascia, shutters, window surrounds, and doors add detail work beyond the body of the home
- Scaffolding and access requirements — multi-story homes, steep roof lines, and difficult-to-reach areas require additional equipment and time
- Product selection — Sherwin-Williams Duration is standard on every OVO exterior painting project; specialty coatings for brick or stucco are available at adjusted pricing
Local Expertise
Exterior Painting in Sandy Springs
Sandy Springs homes span five decades of construction, and exterior painting needs look different on every street. Your 1960s brick ranch in Riverside faces different challenges than a newer hardie plank home near City Springs. We work across Sandy Springs, from Hammond Hills to Mount Vernon to Perimeter Center. Your home gets prep and coatings matched to its actual materials, not a generic approach.
Local Housing & Architecture
Riverside and Hammond Hills are full of 1960s and 70s brick ranches with painted brick, wood trim, and original wood siding that has weathered decades of Georgia summers. River Chase has stucco-clad homes prone to hairline cracking from Atlanta's extreme temperature swings. Near Perimeter Center and Glenridge, you will find newer fiber cement siding and modern trim. Mount Vernon and Huntcliff have larger Colonial-style homes with multi-story facades, extensive wood trim, and shutters. What this means for your project: your crew identifies every material on your exterior and preps each one correctly. Stucco cracks get flexible patching. Old wood gets scraped and primed. Your home is not treated like every other home on the block.
Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior Painting
How much does it cost to paint a house exterior in Georgia?
Most Sandy Springs exterior painting projects run $3,000-$15,000 depending on home size, siding material, and surface condition. Small homes under 1,500 sq ft typically cost $3,000-$5,500. Medium homes (1,500-2,500 sq ft) run $5,500-$9,000. Larger homes (2,500-4,000 sq ft) range from $9,000-$15,000. Per square foot, exterior home painting in Georgia costs $1.50-$4.25 for body and trim combined. Multi-story homes add roughly 50% per additional story for scaffolding and safe access. Your OVO estimate is a fixed price after a free on-site walkthrough — no guessing, no ballpark ranges over the phone.
What time of year is best to paint the exterior of a house in Sandy Springs?
September and October are the best months for exterior painting in Sandy Springs. Temperatures stay in the 50-85 degree range, humidity drops below 70%, and pollen season is over. Spring (mid-April through late May, after pollen clears) is the second-best window. Sandy Springs winters are mild enough that exterior painting is possible from October through March when daytime temps stay above 36 degrees. The critical factor is scheduling when temperature and humidity allow the coating to cure properly — your OVO crew monitors conditions and plans around the optimal weather window for your project.
How long does exterior paint last on an Sandy Springs home?
With proper prep and Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior, you can expect 7-10 years on HardiePlank fiber cement, 5-7 years on wood siding, and 5-7 years on painted brick in the Sandy Springs area. The PDCA reports that homes in the Southeast need repainting 20-30% more frequently than homes in drier climates because of humidity, UV intensity, and temperature cycling. The single biggest factor in longevity is surface preparation — a properly washed, scraped, primed, and caulked surface can add 2-4 years to any finish coat. Every OVO exterior painting project comes with a 5-10 year written warranty.
What is included in an exterior painting project with OVO?
Every OVO exterior house painting project includes: complete power washing and mildew treatment, scraping and sanding all loose paint, caulking all gaps and seams, spot priming bare surfaces, two full coats of Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior, daily cleanup of the work area, a dedicated project manager on site every day, a final walkthrough with same-day touch-ups, and a 5-10 year written warranty. Prep and cleanup are never extra charges — they are part of every project, every time.
Why is exterior house painting so expensive?
Surface preparation is the bulk of the labor on any residential exterior painting project — and prep is what determines whether your finish lasts two years or ten. Power washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, priming, masking landscaping, and protecting windows takes more crew hours than the paint application itself. Premium coatings like Sherwin-Williams Duration cost significantly more than contractor-grade paint but last 2-3x longer in Georgia's climate. When you add scaffolding for multi-story homes, daily cleanup, and on-site project management, you have a job priced for quality and durability — not for the lowest number on paper.
How much do painters charge per square foot in Georgia?
Exterior painting contractors in Georgia typically charge $1.50-$4.25 per square foot for the full exterior — body, trim, fascia, and shutters included. The lower end applies to straightforward single-story homes with good surface condition. The higher end applies to multi-story homes, detailed Victorian or craftsman trim, painted brick or stucco, and homes that need significant prep work. OVO Painting provides a detailed, fixed-price written quote after a free on-site walkthrough of your home. The per-square-foot number on a phone estimate without a site visit is a guess, not a price.
How do I know if a painter is good?
A good exterior painting contractor does these things before you sign: walks your home in person before quoting, provides a written fixed-price estimate with full scope spelled out, explains the prep process in detail, and tells you exactly what coating they will use and why. Red flags: phone quotes without a site visit, vague "prep included" language without specifics, pressure to sign the same day, and no written warranty. OVO Painting has 135+ five-star Google reviews, provides fixed-price written estimates, and backs every exterior project with a 5-10 year written warranty. Call (404) 630-2720 to schedule your walkthrough.
Do I need to be home during the exterior painting project?
You do not need to be home, but you will always know what is happening. Your project manager sends photo updates throughout the day and is available by phone or text anytime. Your crew arrives when scheduled, works section by section, and leaves the site clean every evening. Most homeowners check in when they come home from work and find their home looking better each day. You just need to be available for the final walkthrough when the project wraps — that is when your 5-10 year written warranty is delivered.
Should I paint the brick on my 1960s Sandy Springs ranch?
It depends on your brick's condition. If the mortar is sound, painting just the trim, shutters, and front door transforms your curb appeal without the commitment of full brick painting. If brick is stained or patched from repairs, limewash or full exterior paint with masonry primer gives you a clean, cohesive look. We walk through the options at the estimate.
How do you fix cracked stucco before painting in Sandy Springs?
We inspect all stucco surfaces for structural versus cosmetic cracking. Hairline heat-cycle cracks get filled with flexible elastomeric compound that moves with the substrate instead of cracking again. Wider cracks may need repair before any paint goes on. We document everything during the free estimate so you know what you are paying for.
What paint holds up best near the Chattahoochee in Sandy Springs?
River-adjacent homes need coatings built for high humidity. We use 100% acrylic latex paint with built-in mildew resistance on these properties. Combined with thorough pressure washing and proper primer on bare surfaces, this system handles the moisture that Chattahoochee-corridor homes face year-round. Your exterior stays protected and looking clean.

Area Considerations
What Sandy Springs Homeowners Should Know
Aging Wood Siding Prepped Right
Original 1970s wood siding gets lead testing, scraping, and bare-wood priming so your new coating bonds to sound material.
Stucco Cracks Sealed Before Paint
Hairline cracks from heat cycling get filled with flexible elastomeric compound so your stucco finish does not crack again.
River Corridor Mildew Protection
Homes near the Chattahoochee get mildew-resistant primer and coatings built for high humidity as standard on every project.
Sandy Springs homes near the Chattahoochee corridor should prioritize mildew-resistant coatings on north and west walls. The humidity is higher year-round, and standard paint breaks down faster in those conditions. For brick ranches in Riverside and Hammond Hills, consider painting your trim and shutters first to see the curb appeal improvement before committing to full brick painting. Stucco homes along River Chase should have cracks inspected before any exterior painting begins. Hairline cracks are cosmetic, but wider cracks may signal substrate issues. Your free estimate includes this assessment. For homes with original 1970s wood siding, ask about lead testing if your home was built before 1978.
“Georgia is one of the hardest climates in the country for exterior coatings. High heat, afternoon storms, and humidity all year mean most homes here need repainting 20-30% sooner than homes in Colorado or Arizona. The way we fight that is with prep and product selection — not more coats of the wrong paint. When we power wash, scrape, caulk, and prime every surface correctly, then apply Sherwin-Williams Duration over that foundation, we are building a finish that can hold up seven to ten years in Sandy Springs weather. Homeowners who have been through a paint job that failed in two or three years understand exactly why surface preparation is not optional.”
