Exterior Painting
Built to Last
In Hawaii
Hawaii Painters 808 uses Sherwin-Williams Duration — a premium paint proven in Oʻahu's climate over 30+ years. Cheap paint on a Hawaii exterior is money wasted in two years. We do it right the first time.
How We Work
Every exterior painting job follows the same proven process — no shortcuts, no surprises.
Free Consultation
We inspect your exterior surfaces, identify problem areas, and give you a detailed written estimate. We tell you exactly what needs to be done and why.
Surface Preparation
Power wash, scrape, sand, caulk gaps, and prime bare spots. On Hawaii exteriors, prep is everything — salt air and moisture get into every crack.
Expert Application
Two full coats of Sherwin-Williams Duration — a premium exterior paint we've trusted for 30+ years in Hawaii's conditions. Not whatever's cheapest at the hardware store.
Final Walkthrough
We walk the entire exterior with you before we leave. Every edge, every surface. Touch-ups on the spot. Done when you say it's done.
Every Exterior Surface
From wood siding to stucco to lanais — we handle every exterior surface on Oʻahu homes with the right products and proper prep.
Wood Siding
Properly primed and sealed against Hawaii's moisture. We don't skip the prep that makes wood last.
Stucco & Concrete
The most common exterior surface on Oahu. Requires proper prep, the right primer, and quality paint to last in Hawaii's conditions.
Trim & Fascia
Doors, window frames, soffits, and fascia boards. High-detail work that defines the finished look.
Fences & Gates
Wood and metal fencing painted and sealed to handle salt air and UV exposure year-round.
Garages & Outbuildings
Detached garages, sheds, and utility structures. Same quality products and prep as the main house.
Lanais & Covered Areas
Covered outdoor living spaces need the right products — not interior paint, not standard exterior. We know the difference.
Exterior Painting That
Holds Up in Hawaii
Exterior painting on Oʻahu is the highest-stakes painting job on the island. The climate is beautiful — but it is relentless on exterior surfaces. Salt air from the ocean, UV intensity that fades paint in months, trade winds carrying moisture into every crack, and concrete and stucco surfaces that need specific coatings to hold up.
I have been painting exteriors on Oʻahu for over 30 years. I have seen what happens when the wrong products are used or prep is skipped. Cheap paint on a Hawaii exterior is money wasted in two years. Prep and product selection determine how long a paint job lasts — and that is where Hawaii Painters 808 does not cut corners.
Why Exterior Painting in Hawaii Is Different
The ocean is never far on Oʻahu. Salt air is corrosive — it breaks down paint binders, causes peeling, and accelerates rust on any metal surfaces. Homes in Hawaii Kai, Kahala, Kailua, and anywhere near the coast feel this the hardest.
Hawaii's UV index is among the highest in the country. After 30+ years painting on Oahu, I know that Sherwin-Williams Duration maintains color and sheen far longer than standard options.
Most exterior paint failures on Oahu come down to two things: wrong product and skipped prep. Hawaii Painters 808 gets both right every time.

"Hawaii Painters 808 repainted our entire Kailua home exterior. Two years later it still looks brand new — no fading, no peeling. The salt air hasn't touched it. Worth every penny."

"Our Kaneohe home was badly faded from the sun. Hawaii Painters 808 used UV-resistant paint and the color has held perfectly through two full summers. Incredible difference."
"They power washed, caulked every gap, primed the bare spots, and put on two full coats. I watched them work — they didn't skip a single step. That's rare."
"Best exterior paint job I've seen on Oahu. Lopaka personally inspected every surface before they started. The prep work alone took a full day. That's the difference."
