The average age of a home purchased in the U.S. hit a record 36 years in 2024, as homebuyers increasingly seek out older properties with character. This shift is fueling a growing demand for skilled renovation—and LIME Painting is leading the way. As the first and only luxury painting franchise specializing in custom residential and commercial properties, the brand is uniquely positioned to meet this demand with premium restoration services that honor both history and craftsmanship.
LIME Painting’s expertise goes far beyond paint, encompassing a full range of premium services that restore integrity, add value, and elevate curb appeal for aging homes and buildings:
- Interior and exterior lime wash
- Stucco and siding repair
- Stone and brick refinishing
- Decorative and specialty coatings
- Trim replacement and wood restoration
- Full interior and exterior painting
“Whether it’s a century-old home or a luxury property in need of updates, today’s homeowners want more than paint, they want to preserve history while making the space their own,” said Nick Lopez, Founder and CEO of LIME Painting. “We’ve built our brand on the ability to restore both the beauty and integrity of a structure with high-level craftsmanship and care.”
LIME Painting franchisees across the U.S. are taking on standout restoration projects that reflect the brand’s expertise in luxury home transformations. Recent highlights include:
- Diana Edwards (North Pittsburgh, PA) is tackling a million-dollar home restoration involving trim replacement, stucco repair, full interior painting, and a whitewash exterior refresh.
- Matt Fuss (Salt Lake City, UT) is leading a full property transformation that includes stucco repair, brick and stone refinishing, trim replacement, and other restoration services.
- Cory Griggs (Charleston, SC) is wrapping up a large-scale project on Dewees Island, blending premium finishes and environmental considerations on a remote coastal property.
These restoration projects do more than enhance individual properties, they help preserve architectural character, boost neighborhood property values, and improve overall functionality for homeowners. By modernizing aging homes while respecting their original craftsmanship, LIME Painting is supporting long-term community revitalization.
“So many older homes have incredible structure and history, but they’ve been neglected over the years,” said Edwards. “What we do is about more than just aesthetics, it’s about giving these homes a second life. We’re preserving craftsmanship that you can’t find in new construction and helping families fall in love with their spaces all over again.”
As the brand continues to grow across more than 90 locations in 21+ states, it remains rooted in its core values of Love, Integrity, Mission, and Excellence (L.I.M.E.). Every project, whether it’s a modern makeover or historic renovation, reflects LIME’s mission to protect and elevate luxury properties with unmatched expertise.
