Schmidt Painting · Suffolk County & Nassau County as far west as Syosset
Exterior House Painting on Long Island
Long Island exteriors take a beating — sun on the South Shore, salt air off the Sound, freeze-and-thaw winters everywhere. Since 1986 Schmidt Painting has painted exteriors that hold up because the prep is done right: a proper wash first, scraping and sanding, priming bare wood, and quality coatings applied in the right conditions.
What We Can Help With
Your written estimate sets out the work for your project, including preparation and the surfaces to be finished.
Siding
Wood, cedar, vinyl and asbestos shingle siding, washed and painted for even, lasting coverage.
Trim, Fascia & Soffits
The details that frame the house, cut in clean and sealed against the weather.
Doors & Shutters
Front doors, garage doors and shutters finished smooth, in accent colors that pop.
Decks & Fences
Semi-transparent and solid stains, sealed against sun, rain and foot traffic.
Wash-and-Prep First
Every exterior job starts with a soft wash so paint bonds to a clean surface.
Repairs Along the Way
Caulking, glazing and carpentry repairs — from small fixes to major rot and wood replacement — handled before the paint goes on.
Common Questions
Straight answers, the same as you'd get on the phone.
When is the best time of year to paint a house on Long Island?
Exterior painting depends on dry surfaces, the forecast and the temperature requirements of the coating. Tell us your preferred timing when you request an estimate. Weather and the preparation needed can affect the schedule.
How long will an exterior paint job last?
It varies with the surface, existing condition, preparation, coating, weather exposure and maintenance. Washing, scraping, sanding and priming help the finish perform, but one lifespan does not fit every home. We can discuss the condition of your exterior during the estimate.
Do you wash the house before painting?
Always. Paint applied over dirt, chalk or mildew fails early. Every exterior job includes a soft wash before prep and paint.
