Recently had this excellent team replace our roof following high winds damage. From start to finish we felt like family and we could not be happier with the result and price. Excellent material and professional installation and follow up.

Painting in Apex
Painting in Apex, done the way the town needs it
Lamar Homes paints exteriors and interiors across Apex and Wake County. Family owned, licensed and insured, and often on the same visit as roof edge and fascia work.
North Carolina's pollen monitoring season starts in late February, and a Apex wall painted at the peak of it picks up a yellow film before the coat has set. Apex subdivisions were cut out of pine woods, and the pines that were left drop needles into every valley and gutter. We work the elevations around the sun and the season rather than painting whatever is in front of us.
Apex grew in bursts, so whole subdivisions went up within two or three years on the same builder-grade shingle and reach the end of their life together. Older siding and trim need scraping back to sound material and priming on bare wood; newer fiber cement and vinyl need washing and the right product. Paint over rotten trim is money spent twice, so we say so at the quote.

Painting on Apex homes: what decides the job
01
The prep decides the lifespan
Wash, scrape back anything loose, treat the mildew, prime bare wood, caulk the joints last. The paint is the cheap part of the job.
02
Timing in Apex
Late spring through fall, avoiding the worst of the pollen. Apex subdivisions were cut out of pine woods, and the pines that were left drop needles into every valley and gutter.
03
Apex's siding and trim
Apex grew in bursts, so whole subdivisions went up within two or three years on the same builder-grade shingle and reach the end of their life together.
Deciding on painting in Apex
Cost, time, what is included and what backs it, before you pick up the phone.
01
What it costs
Quoted by elevation after a free estimate, because the prep is most of the cost and the south and west walls usually need more of it than the rest. One written price covering prep, primer and coats.
02
How long it takes
An exterior takes a few days depending on size and weather, planned around the pollen season and the humidity. Interiors are quicker. Estimates in Apex are the same week.
03
What is included
Washing, scraping back anything loose, mildew treated, bare wood primed, joints caulked, then the coats. Rotten trim is flagged before it is painted over, not after.
04
What backs it
A licensed and insured crew, and an honest answer when paint is not the fix: failing siding or a wet wall gets sorted first.

Painting in Apex: questions
When is the best time to paint a house in Apex?
Late spring through fall, avoiding the peak of the pollen season. Humidity is the other constraint, so we plan elevations around the sun rather than fight the weather.
Do you paint interiors in Apex too?
Yes. Walls, ceilings, trim and doors. Interior work is not weather dependent, so it is often what we schedule around the exterior jobs.
My neighbors are all replacing their roofs. Should I?
Possibly. In neighborhoods built at the same time the roofs also age at the same rate, so it is a fair prompt to get yours inspected. Whether it needs replacing depends on the condition of your roof, not theirs.
Half my street has replaced their roofs. Should I?
It is a fair prompt to get inspected, since houses built together age together. Whether yours needs replacing depends on your roof, not theirs.
