Residential Exterior Painting in Metairie, LA

Metairie sits in a FEMA AE flood zone in low-lying Jefferson Parish, and that shapes how we repaint exteriors here. We work homes from Old Metairie to Metairie Club Gardens, where storm-driven rain and high water tables test the bottom of every wall. Prep comes first: wash, scrape, treat any rot or corrosion, and seal the joints water finds. The homes date to about 1971, so older sealant and chalked body coats are common, and a real prep job is what makes the next coat last.

Local context · Metairie

Painting in Metairie — what we see on the ground.

Salt air, UV, and coastal substrate — scoped wall by wall, primed for what it's actually made of.

Metairie sits in the same humid subtropical band as the rest of the Gulf South, which means north-facing walls hold mildew, south and west elevations fade hard under summer UV, and the homes near Lake Pontchartrain see enough salt-laden air to push fastener corrosion and chalking on older paint films. A lot of the Old Metairie housing stock predates 1978, so EPA RRP Lead-Safe protocols are part of how we work there.

The work pattern in Metairie reflects how built-out the parish is: interior repaints in Old Metairie and Metairie Club Gardens, cabinet refinishing for kitchens that haven't been touched since the last full remodel, and exterior maintenance repaints on the brick-and-stucco homes off Veterans Boulevard. Bucktown and the lakeward streets see more storm-related caulk and trim repair than the inland blocks.

Metairie is roughly 140 miles west of Mobile, so we run it as a Mobile-dispatched job rather than a same-day swing from Spanish Fort. We block out continuous days on-site, schedule around Veterans and Causeway commuter traffic, and size the bid so the travel makes sense for both the homeowner and the crew.

What's Included

Every residential exterior painting job in Metairie includes:

  • Pressure wash from soffit to foundation
  • Scrape + sand failing paint to a sound edge
  • Spot-prime bare wood and chalked surfaces
  • Re-caulk window, door, and trim joints
  • Two coats of a coastal-rated finish system
  • Rotted-wood replacement itemized separately on the quote
Why Metairie?

Local context. Real crew. Same warranty.

Metairie's roughly 51-year-old homes sit in a low, AE-flood pocket of greater New Orleans, so exteriors here fight ground moisture as much as sun. About 49 inches of rain a year and a July climate near 92 degrees mean south and west walls bake and fade while shaded north faces and the lower courses near grade hold damp and grow mildew. Wind-driven rain from Gulf storm systems tests every aging caulk joint and seam. We pressure-wash, scrape and spot-prime failing paint and bare wood, itemize any rotted trim for replacement, treat mildew before we coat, re-caulk the joints that leak, and put the right coastal-rated system on each exposure so the finish ages evenly instead of failing low or on the sun-beaten side.

One crew does every step, the same faces from the walkthrough to the final cleanup, so your home isn't handed off mid-job, and they train as a team each week. A manager signs off on the finished exterior before the final payment is due, and pre-1978 houses are handled Lead-Safe certified. The work carries a 3-year workmanship warranty plus a 100% satisfaction guarantee. That reliability is why we hold a 4.8★ rating across 304 Google reviews.

I highly recommend Pro 1 Painters for many reasons. Great work ethic, extremely detail oriented, totally dependable and very professional. Had the exterior of my house painted — 2.5 story wood home on a hill. They showed up promptly at 8.

Marsha Nelson · April 2026

Pro 1 Painters did a great job painting our house exterior and applying a garage floor coating. They were very professional and easy to work with.

Jeff Mundell · November 2025

From start to finish, this has been such a great experience. Seab came to our home for the consultation and really took the time to explain everything in detail. Dobie, Oliver and Louis did an awesome job on our exterior paint job.
