TESTIMONIALS

What others are saying

"Adam and his guys were great. Paint some doors at my business. Came when promised did a wonderful job and cleaned up after themselves. Highly recommend"

Adam and his crew painted the entire interior of my house. They did a great job, very thorough. Cleaned up afterwards a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend.

"We had adam paint our bathroom, he did an excellent job and am looking forward to having more work done. He was very professional and knowledgeable we will use him for all our drywall and painting projects in the future."

"We moved to Emerald Isle last June, and we have hired Cook’s Coastal Painting three times already. Adam met with us first and listened to our wishes, and each job has been completed perfectly (and the house left clean). The crew is a bunch of great guys who get along well and work diligently. If you need an interior or exterior painting job done well the first time, we highly recommend that you call CCP LLC!

"Adam was recommended to me by a local paint company. He came out, got right to work and finished two bedrooms and a bath in two and a half days with two coats on everything. He even solved an issue on a window sill that I thought I’d need a carpenter to repair. Thanks, Adam, for a beautiful job."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to paint a house in Carteret County?

The cost to paint a house in Carteret County typically ranges from $2.50 to $5.00 per square foot, depending on the home’s size, condition, surface prep needs, and the quality of materials used. Coastal homes often require extra prep and higher-grade coatings to withstand humidity and salt air. We offer free estimates to give you an accurate, customized quote for your property.

How often should you power wash your house in a coastal area?

Homes in coastal areas like Carteret County should be power washed at least once a year, sometimes twice if your home is exposed to a lot of salt spray, humidity, or tree cover. Regular washing helps prevent mildew, algae, and salt buildup, which can damage siding and shorten the life of your paint or stain.

Can epoxy floors handle humidity and salt air near the coast?

Yes. Modern epoxy floor coatings are formulated to resist moisture, salt, and temperature changes, making them an excellent choice for garages, patios, and workshops in coastal North Carolina. Proper prep and application are key—when done right, epoxy floors hold up beautifully in Carteret County’s humid, salty environment.

Do I need to remove popcorn ceilings before painting?

You don’t always have to, but removing popcorn ceilings before painting gives a smoother, more modern finish. If your ceiling texture is old, damaged, or discolored, removal is usually the best option. We offer popcorn ceiling removal and knock down texture services throughout Carteret County, making it easy to update your space before repainting.
