LIME Painting of St. Louis operates from 2722 S Brentwood Blvd, serving homeowners and businesses across St. Louis County, Webster Groves, Clayton, Chesterfield, and surrounding communities. Owner Michael Hanley Jr. and his team handle exterior painting for historic homes with mixed substrates, interior repaints, and specialty work including limewash, faux finishes, and entryway restoration.
Crews arrive early, work full days, and source materials independently, using products from Sherwin-Williams and Romabio as a Preferred Pro. Each project includes detailed surface preparation, with specific techniques matched to the substrate, whether stucco, brick, cedar shake, or century-old wood trim. The team holds EPA RRP certification for work on pre-1978 properties containing lead paint.
Beyond painting, LIME provides drywall repair, masonry services, carpentry, cabinet refinishing, epoxy floor coatings, and seamless gutter installation. The company has maintained BBB A+ accreditation since December 2022 and carries the insurance coverage required for residential and commercial restoration work throughout the St. Louis metro area.

Debbie Akins reported similar thoroughness on her mid-century modern home with exposed beams, rafters, decking, and T&G siding, where the team patched, caulked, primed, and painted throughout the structure.
