Wash & Prep
Full pressure washing followed by scraping and caulking to remove loose paint and seal gaps before priming.
Memphis summers run hot and humid, and Mid-South homes take a beating from UV exposure, sudden storms, and freeze-thaw cycles through the winter. A paint job that skips proper surface prep tends to fail within two or three years regardless of how good the paint itself is. CDJ Property Maintenance has completed over 500 exterior painting projects using a consistent process: pressure washing, scraping, caulking, and priming before any finish coat goes on, with no shortcuts taken to save time.
Every exterior job is backed by a 7 year warranty on both labor and paint, well beyond the 2 year workmanship warranty typical of other painting contractors in the Memphis market. If you're refreshing the outside of your home, ask about combining it with interior painting for a full-property update. Color consultation is included, and the business is fully insured.
HOW IT WORKS
A finish coat is only as good as the prep underneath it. Every exterior job follows the same four-stage process.
Full pressure washing followed by scraping and caulking to remove loose paint and seal gaps before priming.
Weather-resistant, low-VOC primer applied to bare and repaired surfaces so the finish coat bonds correctly.
Two full coats applied for even coverage and long-term durability, backed by a 7 year warranty on labor and paint.
WHY HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE CDJ
Exterior painting costs in the Memphis market typically run between roughly $2,600 and $6,800 depending on home size and surface condition, and most local painting contractors back their work with a 1 to 2 year workmanship warranty. That is a reasonable industry standard, but it means homeowners are largely on their own if paint starts failing in year three or four.
CDJ Property Maintenance backs every exterior job with a 7 year warranty on both labor and paint, more than triple what's typical locally, which is only possible because the prep work (pressure washing, scraping, caulking, priming) is never skipped to save a day of labor. On any home built before 1978, which covers a significant share of Memphis's older neighborhoods, EPA lead-safe work practices are followed as required by federal renovation rules.
SERVICE AREA
Exterior painting crews serve homes across Memphis and Shelby County, West Tennessee communities like Jackson and Bartlett, West Memphis and surrounding eastern Arkansas, and North Mississippi towns including Southaven, Olive Branch, and Hernando.
