Interior & Exterior Painting services in Livonia
Livonia grew fast after World War II, so most of its houses are brick ranches, split levels and colonials from the 1950s through the 1970s. The brick itself is rarely painted. The paint work is on wood trim, soffits, fascia, garage doors, shutters and the aluminum or vinyl siding on gables and second floors. Old Rosedale Gardens, near Plymouth Road, is older, with houses from the 1920s and 1930s that have wood windows, plaster walls and more detailed trim. Inside, postwar homes here have plaster or early drywall, and many still have oak cabinets and textured ceilings from later updates. Michigan winters are hard on south and west facing trim. Snow sits on sills, water gets into end grain, and freeze and thaw cycles lift the paint. We scrape, prime bare wood and caulk open joints before any finish coat goes on.

HOA and local rules
Painting a house rarely needs a building permit. If you live in a subdivision with an association or deed restrictions, check its rules on exterior colors before you repaint.
