Exterior Painting Transformation on Lasalle Street, St. Louis

At Kennedy Painting, we take pride in bringing new life to homes with our professional exterior painting services. Recently, our team had the pleasure of painting a beautiful property located in LaFayette Square, one of St. Louis’s most historic and charming neighborhoods.

This project on Lasalle Street involved a full exterior repaint, using high-quality Sherwin-Williams Duration paint to ensure a long-lasting and durable finish. The color choices were carefully selected to enhance the home's unique architecture while maintaining the historic charm of LaFayette Square.

We pressure-washed the entire exterior with a low-pressure detergent wash to remove dirt and mildew without causing damage to the surfaces. To ensure the longevity of our work, we followed a thorough preparation process, essential for any high-quality exterior painting job. All surfaces were scraped, lightly sanded, and caulked where needed to create a smooth foundation for painting. Bare wood and stucco were spot-primed to prevent peeling and ensure an even finish.

One of the standout features of this home is its intricate exterior detailing. Our team paid close attention to the dentil cornice, corbels, and delicate millwork, highlighting these elements with accents in Sherwin-Williams Rock Garden 6195 and Privilege Green 6193. These thoughtful color choices add depth and character, making the home feel both modern and timeless.

All painted surfaces received 2 coats of Sherwin-Williams Duration, chosen for its superior durability and fade resistance. The final color layout was designed to match the home’s existing aesthetic, blending seamlessly with the surrounding architecture in LaFayette Square.

• Front Stucco: Painted in Sherwin-Williams Rookwood Amber 2817, adding warmth and elegance to the facade.
• Foundation and Steps: Coated in Quiver Tan 6151, providing a strong and complementary base.
• Window Sills and Entry Trim: Finished with Canvas Tan 7531 to create a fresh, clean contrast.

We want to extend a special thanks to Maggie from VenturaColor, who assisted in selecting these stunning colors. Her expertise helped us create a finished product that not only refreshes the look of this home but also respects the rich architectural history of the neighborhood.
