Painters & Remodelers in Brookhaven, GA
Brookhaven is three housing eras packed into one small DeKalb city. Around the Capital City Club sits one of the country's early planned golf communities, built between 1910 and World War II. South of there, Ashford Park, Drew Valley and Skyland Park filled in during the 1940s and 50s with small houses on deep lots, and many of those are now being added onto or replaced. North toward Murphey Candler Park, the streets turn to 60s colonials and ranches. So the work swings from careful repair on prewar houses to second stories and full gut remodels on the postwar ones.
Brookhaven homes, and what they need
Historic Brookhaven, listed on the National Register in 1986, holds houses built from 1910 to 1941, mostly Colonial and Georgian Revival with Tudor, Dutch Colonial and Spanish Revival mixed in, several by Atlanta firms such as Hentz, Reid and Adler, plus postwar ranches set between them. Expect plaster walls, old-growth framing, and wood windows and trim with many layers of paint. Ashford Park, Drew Valley and Skyland Park are mostly 1940s and 50s cottages, brick bungalows and ranches on generous lots, and the lots now carry the value, so a common project is a second-story addition or a teardown with new construction beside a neighbor's original house. Brookhaven Fields and Brookhaven Heights sit on narrower lots. Lynwood Park, historically an African American neighborhood of wood and cinderblock houses, now mixes those with new craftsman-style builds. Up north near Murphey Candler and Blackburn parks, the 60s two-story colonials are ready for their first real kitchen and bath remodels.

Recent work from our crews
Who runs the job
Every Brookhaven project has a supervisor on site who manages it day to day: the schedule, the crews, the quality checks and your questions. When something needs putting right, a run in the trim or a strip of caulk, the supervisor is the person who sees it and gets it fixed.
The crews are specialists. Painters paint and renovation crews remodel, so the person doing each part of your job does that work every day. The estimate is done by someone who knows DeKalb County housing and prices the repair a house like yours needs before anything else happens.

- How quickly can you get to a job in Brookhaven?
- Call (470) 419-0922 and we will give you a real date rather than a guess. Exterior work books out fastest in spring and early fall; interior work is usually quicker to slot in.
- Do you handle both the painting and the remodeling?
- Yes. Painting and remodeling are handled by separate specialist crews, scheduled by one company, with an on-site supervisor managing the project. In a Brookhaven home that means the repairs, the remodel and the paint happen in the right order without you coordinating a second contractor.
Advice for Brookhaven homeowners
- Tile or paint: which upgrade is the better spend? Tile costs several times what paint does, and sometimes it is still the right call. Where paint is the smarter money, where tile earns its cost, and how to read your own room to decide.
- Hiring a painter versus a DIY weekend: what you get DIY is fine for a sound single room. What a professional, and one full-service team, adds is prep, sequencing and accountability — and those three decide the jobs DIY should not touch.
- How long interior paint lasts, room by room Paint ages by use, not by time. Which rooms fail first and why, which last the longest, and the money-saving habit of repainting only the rooms that have earned it.
- Why the same paint color looks different in each room The direction a room faces changes the color on the wall more than the chip ever shows. Here is how light decides, and how to test for it.
