Exteriors at the shore burn through cheap paint in three seasons. UV, salt fog, and humidity stack up. We don't use what the big-box stocks — we spec coastal-rated coatings made for this kind of beating. Working Ocean City from the bay to the boardwalk.
Ocean City exteriors take a beating. Three blocks from the ocean and salt fog kills cheap paint in two seasons. Three blocks from the bay and humidity does the same thing. The fix is correct substrate prep plus coastal-rated coatings — not the contractor-grade default off the big-box shelf.
OC siding splits across cedar shake on Wesley Ave, stucco condo blocks south of 5th, cement-board on the newer Asbury Avenue builds, and 1920s frame houses north of 9th Street. Each substrate wants a different primer and a different topcoat — the one-size-fits-all approach is the main reason most shore repaints fail before year three.
Exterior scope in OC: full house repaints, cedar shake re-stains on bayside properties, stucco crack repair plus repaint, trim-only refreshes on otherwise-good siding, deck rail repainting, and HOA-coordinated condo block work where every unit has to match.
OC exteriors are season-sensitive. Spring and fall are the windows where the paint actually cures right. Those windows book months out — call early, especially for pre-Memorial Day completion.
Power wash, scrape, prime exposed wood, two coats of stain or paint. Salt-rated topcoat.
Crack repair, elastomeric where it earns its keep, breathable coatings everywhere else.
We push exteriors to spring and fall. Right temp, right humidity, no peeling in August.
Approved palette matching, color-board approvals, no surprises when the inspector drives by.
