What's different about wall painting in Charlotte

Humid subtropical: winter lows average around 30°F (Jan), summer highs around 90°F (Jul); ~43.6 in. of precipitation and ~3.5 in. of snow annually (1991–2020 NOAA normals); occasional ice storms and ~50 thunderstorm days/year, low direct hurricane risk (inland remnants bring heavy rain/wind).

Median year built is around 1995, reflecting Charlotte's rapid late-20th-century growth; only about 5% of homes were built before 1950. Housing mixes brick ranch and traditional single-family homes from the 1960s–90s with newer suburban subdivisions; slab and crawlspace foundations are common, basements are rare in the region.

  • Wall height / access (vaulted ceilings, stairwells add 20-40%)
  • Paint quality (builder-grade vs. premium)
  • Local labor rates — bigger metros price higher
