WHO WE ARE
Your Exterior Doesn’t Just Need Paint, It Needs Expertise.
At Palmetto State Exteriors, we specialize in making your home or building look better than new without shortcuts, gimmicks, or the 5-year paint cycle that leaves you repainting again and again.
​
Founded by Hugh McLaurin and John Curnias, we bring a combined 50+ years of real-world experience in masonry manufacturing, commercial exteriors, and specialty coatings. We’re not just contractors - we’re craftsmen who understand the science behind every service we offer.
​
We’ve proudly served South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia for years, working within a 150-mile radius of Columbia, SC to ensure fast, responsive service and project control.
Our specialty? Delivering durable, beautiful, and breathable solutions that hold up for 15, 20 even 25 years.
