Exterior Painting & Ceramic Coatings in New Orleans, LA

Stop the 5-Year Paint Cycle with Rhino Shield® Midsouth

The New Orleans climate is brutal on paint. Between the 90% humidity, relentless Gulf salt air, and heavy tropical rains, standard latex paint on a raised Creole cottage or a Garden District mansion typically begins to peel, crack, and harbor mildew within just a few years.

At Rhino Shield Midsouth, we don't just "paint" your home—we provide a permanent solution. Our ceramic coating system is engineered specifically to bond to the wood, stucco, and brick surfaces found throughout NOLA, providing a breathable barrier that looks like fresh paint but lasts for decades.

Why New Orleans Homeowners Trust Rhino Shield

In a city where historic beauty meets extreme weather, "standard" exterior painting isn't enough. Here is why Rhino Shield is the preferred choice from Metairie to the Lower Garden District:

• Mildew & Algae Resistance: Our coatings contain high-grade additives that prevent the "green fuzz" commonly seen on New Orleans siding.

• Breathability for Historic Homes: Old wood needs to breathe. Our ceramic layer allows interior moisture to escape while preventing exterior rain from soaking in.

• VCC & HDC Color Matching: We can match any historic color palette required by the Vieux Carré Commission or the Historic District Landmarks Commission.

• 25-Year Warranty: While your neighbors are repainting every 5 years, your home will still look pristine through hurricane seasons and heatwaves.

Our New Orleans Painting Process

We are more than just "painters near you." We are restoration experts. Every New Orleans project follows a rigorous 10-step preparation process:

1. Thorough Inspection: Identifying wood rot or masonry issues common in older Louisiana homes.

2. Pressure Washing: Removing decades of city grime and salt.

3. Scraping & Sanding: Creating a smooth, professional surface.

4. Premium Priming: Using our proprietary APS sealer to "glue" the coating to the substrate.

5. Ceramic Application: Applying a coat 8-10 times thicker than traditional paint.
