Mel and his team were extremely thorough in identifying and correcting a water leakage problem from the top of our deck into the enclosed sun room below. They were both professional and courteous and provided great follow up after the job was completed. I highly recommend MI Homesiding & Roofing for any problem that involves water leakage into your home. I will definitely use MI in the future.

Highly recommend MI Homesiding! They completed a major home exterior project for us including replacing and painting our siding as well as replacing our roofing and gutters. They did an excellent job and we began getting compliments immediately from our neighbors about it! Mel was very communicative and proactive, listened to our questions and ideas, and took care of things in a timely manner. His team was always professional and the work is just superb! We not only recommend MI Homesiding, we will be using them again for future projects ourselves.

I found MI Homesiding & Roofing through their YouTube channel and called with a few questions about siding. Even though I’m not located in Tennessee and wouldn’t be hiring them directly, they answered the phone right away and took the time to answer every question in detail. They provided specific, helpful information and even assisted me in finding a contractor in my area. It’s rare to find a company so willing to help someone who isn’t even a local customer. Awesome people, excellent service, and truly knowledgeable. Thank you so much!

We are very happy with MI Homesiding's workmanship and dedication to achieve the best results for our Hardyboard residing. Mel answered our calls promptly; addressing and tending to any question we had. As with any home renovation, we ran into minor issues when we removed the siding the flashing was old and damaged. MI siding was more than happy to give us a fair estimate and replace the flashing to the siding. Porta-potty & dumpster were dropped off immediately prior to process, and removed with equal precision. Workers were diligent maintaining a safe & clean work area; cleaning remnant debris on last day. We recommended MI to our neighbors, and are having them back to caulk & paint. They did an excellent job at a fair price.

Repair vs Full Repaint

If full repainting is the better long-term solution, we'll explain why. Honest guidance based on your home's actual condition.

ConditionBest Solution
Peeling paint on 1-2 wallsPaint repair + touch-up
Exposed wood or trim damagePaint repair with wood sealing
Fading on south side onlyTargeted repaint
Peeling on 3+ wallsFull exterior repainting
Underlying siding damageSiding repair first, then paint

Why We Check the Full Wall System

Paint doesn't fail on its own. It usually fails because something underneath is failing — rot, moisture behind siding, failed flashing.

During every paint repair inspection, we also check your siding and trim. If the paint is peeling because the siding is damaged or rotting, we identify the root cause.

That's why we handle siding repair, water behind siding, and rotted siding repair as part of the same visit.

 

Hidden Damage Policy

  1. 01
    If hidden rot, damaged sheathing, framing issues, or moisture damage are discovered during the project, we stop and document with photos.
  2. 02
    We provide a written Change Order before moving forward.
  3. 03
    We never cover hidden damage behind fresh paint.

Why Knoxville Homeowners Choose MI

We are a siding, roofing, and painting contractor — that means we see the full exterior picture, not just paint.

FAQs – Paint Repair in Knoxville, TN

Can you match my existing exterior paint color?

Yes. We use professional color matching to blend new work into the existing finish as closely as possible.

Is paint repair cheaper than a full repaint?

Usually yes, if the damage is limited to 1-2 walls or specific problem areas. For widespread peeling or fading, a full repaint is often more cost-effective long-term.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. On-site paint repair estimates are free for standard projects. For complex inspections involving suspected hidden damage or larger areas, we offer a $350 Technical Assessment that is credited back if you move forward.

Are you BBB Accredited?

Yes. MI Homesiding & Roofing is a BBB Accredited Business and a Licensed General Contractor in Tennessee.

What happens if you find rot or damage under the paint?

We stop, document with photos, and provide a written Change Order before continuing. We never cover hidden damage behind new paint.

Do you coordinate paint repair with other exterior work?

Yes. Paint touch-ups after siding repair, trim replacement, gutter work, or storm damage repair are common. One team = better coordination.
