Local Guide

A raised Creole cottage in Oakleigh Garden, a golf-community home in Baldwin County, and a college rental near Spring Hill are three completely different painting jobs, even when the paint can is the same. The house and the neighborhood set the terms.

This collection is a tour of the homes we paint across Mobile and the Eastern Shore — historic districts and their ornate trim, raised cottages, older bungalows along Dauphin Island Parkway, the riverside towns up toward Creola, and the established communities of the Eastern Shore. Each guide gets into the styles, the eras, and the quirks that shape how a local home gets prepped and painted.
