Local Painters Proud to Paint Here in New Bern, NC

Posted on April 29, 2025

New Bern isn’t just another stop on the map—it’s a town with a rhythm all its own. The way the Neuse and Trent Rivers meet, the layout of the neighborhoods, and the age of many homes all influence how painting gets done around here. At CertaPro Painters® of New Bern & Jacksonville, NC, we don’t just pass through. We live here. We’ve painted homes near Tryon Palace, businesses down Broad Street, and more than a few porches with river views. Local painting work takes local knowledge, and that’s exactly what we bring to the job.

New Bern’s history shows up on its buildings. Some houses have stood for generations, with wood siding that’s seen it all—from salty air to high humidity and sudden summer storms. Others are newer builds in growing neighborhoods like Carolina Colours or Fairfield Harbour. Whether your house is one of the older riverfront properties or a more modern structure, we approach it with the same practical experience and regional understanding. Not every home has the same needs, but they all need paint that can hold up to coastal weather. That’s where our experience in house painting throughout New Bern and Jacksonville comes in.

We also recognize that New Bern isn’t all old charm and quiet streets. There’s growth happening here—families moving in, houses going up, businesses opening. Our crews are painting not just to maintain what’s already here, but to help shape what’s coming next. Every door we paint, every living room wall we finish, becomes part of what New Bern looks like tomorrow. And for us, that’s personal. We don’t just clock in and out. We take care to match the right paint systems to the building materials common in our region, and we do the kind of prep work that keeps paint from peeling in a year or two. That’s how house painting becomes more than just a surface-level job.

One of the unique things about painting in New Bern is how different each area can be. The weather near the river hits different than it does out toward James City or Bridgeton. Some homes need more work because they’re exposed to more moisture. Others are shaded all day and struggle with mildew. That’s not something you learn from a national playbook—it’s something you learn from doing the job in Craven County again and again. Our painters know what kinds of products work best here, and we’re not guessing when we recommend solutions.

We’re also proud to serve Jacksonville, NC, just down the road. We know homeowners there face a whole different set of challenges. Marine air, more sun exposure, and sandy soil all come into play. Whether we’re working near Camp Lejeune or in a quiet cul-de-sac off Western Boulevard, our team treats each job with the same focus. It’s all part of what we offer as CertaPro Painters® of New Bern & Jacksonville, NC—local work by people who actually know the area.
