Lionville's mix of Colonial Revival homes, split-levels, ranch-style houses, and newer developments gives our exterior painting crews a wide variety of work — and we've handled all of it. TCM Finishes has been painting the exteriors of Chester County homes since 2005, and we bring the same level of care and preparation to every Lionville project regardless of size. Chester County's climate puts exterior paint to the test. Hot, humid summers and hard winters create the freeze-thaw cycles that crack caulk, lift paint at edges, and let moisture sneak behind siding. The only way to get a paint job that lasts 8–12 years in this climate is thorough preparation — and that's exactly where we invest most of our time.

• Full exterior house painting for homes of all sizes and stories
• Wood siding painting and restoration — proper cleaning, priming, and painting for cedar and clapboard
• Vinyl and aluminum siding painting with specialty bonding primers and elastomeric coatings
• Fiber cement siding painting with factory-finish-quality results on HardiePlank
• Trim, soffit, and fascia painting with clean, crisp color transitions
• Shutters removed, painted off the home, and rehung for a professional finish
• Front door painting and refinishing — high-gloss and satin finishes
• Garage door painting to match or contrast your home's exterior palette
• Deck staining, sealing, and restoration
• Power washing — thorough exterior cleaning as the foundation of any paint prep
• Caulking and wood repair — gaps sealed, rotted wood replaced before paint is applied

1. Free On-Site Estimate We walk your Lionville home's exterior with you, identify any areas of concern — peeling paint, rotted wood, failed caulk — and present a detailed written scope of work.
2. Power Washing Every exterior surface is thoroughly power washed to remove dirt, mildew, chalking paint, and organic growth. We never paint over a dirty surface.
3. Surface Preparation We hand-scrape all loose and peeling paint, sand rough edges, replace rotted wood, and caulk every seam, joint, gap, and window perimeter. Failed caulk is removed completely before new caulk is applied.
4. Priming All bare wood, repaired areas, and previously unpainted surfaces receive a coat of high-bonding primer. Proper priming is essential for paint adhesion and is never skipped.
5. Painting Premium exterior paints are applied in two full coats for complete coverage, rich color, and maximum film thickness.
6. Final Inspection and Cleanup We conduct a detailed walkthrough with you to confirm every surface looks exactly as expected. Landscaping and hardscape are protected throughout and fully cleaned up at project completion.
