What services does Cherry Capital Paint & Exterior offer?

Which towns around Traverse City do you serve?

We work in Traverse City, Acme, Williamsburg, Suttons Bay, Elk Rapids, Kingsley, Old Mission Peninsula and Interlochen. If you live close by and your town is not on the list, call and ask.

How do I get a quote for my project?

Send us a few details through the Contact Us form or call (231) 384-5192. Estimates are free, and we will talk through what your project needs before any work starts.

Do you paint both homes and businesses?

Yes. Our work runs from a single room to a whole house, from exteriors on homes and lake houses to office interiors and commercial buildings.

What is the difference between roof rejuvenation and GoNano roof protection?

Both are for aging asphalt shingle roofs that are still structurally sound. Roof rejuvenation restores the oils shingles lose over the years, while GoNano is a specific nanotechnology treatment for shingles. Either way, we inspect the roof first to see if it qualifies.

Do you put in and take out docks and boat hoists?

Yes. We install docks and boat hoists in the spring, take them out in the fall and help with lift setup and routine dock upkeep in between. See dock and hoist installation for the details.

Should a house or deck be power washed before painting or staining?

Usually, yes. Paint and stain hold best on clean surfaces, so we often recommend power washing before exterior painting or deck staining.

Do you repair garage doors and openers?

Yes. We install new garage doors, replace outdated ones and repair parts like springs, cables, panels and openers. Find out more on our garage door installation and repair page.
