May be quoted separately

  • Full siding or board replacement

    Replacing large sections of failed siding or structural carpentry is beyond a paint scope — we point you to the right licensed trade.

  • Extensive wood rot repair

    We handle minor rot and trim repair for a paint-ready surface; widespread rot is quoted separately.

  • Lead-safe work on older homes

    Homes built before 1978 may need lead-safe practices, which we discuss during the estimate.

On an exterior, the prep is the part you can't see and can't skip — so I stay on it, right through the final coat and the walkthrough.

FAQ

Exterior questions, answered plainly.

How much does exterior painting cost?

Exterior pricing depends on the size and number of stories, the surface type (stucco, siding, brick), how much prep and repair the home needs, the paint tier you choose, and whether you're changing colors. Rather than a vague per-square-foot number, we do a walkthrough and give you a clear, itemized written estimate so you know exactly what's included before any work begins.

What is the best time of year to paint a home exterior in Colorado?

Late spring through early fall is ideal, when daytime temperatures are reliably above the paint's minimum and overnight lows are not freezing. We monitor the forecast closely and schedule around weather windows to protect the finish.

How long should an exterior paint job last here?

With proper prep and durable coatings, a quality exterior job on the Front Range typically lasts roughly 7–12 years depending on exposure, substrate and color. High-UV south and west walls always weather fastest.

What happens if it rains during my project?

We time painting to dry conditions and keep a close eye on the forecast, because a dry surface is what lets the finish bond and last. Colorado afternoons can change quickly, so we plan each day around the radar. A passing storm may nudge the schedule slightly, and that's exactly what protects the quality and longevity of your finish.

Can you paint in cold weather?

Most exterior coatings need surface and air temperatures to stay above roughly 35–50°F (product-dependent), including overnight, to cure properly. That's why we schedule exterior work from late spring through early fall and keep a close eye on overnight lows in the shoulder seasons.

Is exterior paint just for looks?

No, it's your home's first line of defense. A quality coating over proper prep helps keep moisture out and slows the high-altitude UV that dries out and cracks siding, trim and wood. Good exterior paint helps protect the surfaces underneath, not just the curb appeal.

Will a fresh exterior paint job add value to my home?

It's one of the most reliable returns in home improvement. A clean, current exterior is the first thing buyers and appraisers see, and it signals a home that's been cared for. Beyond resale, it protects the value you already have by keeping moisture and UV from damaging the siding and trim, which is far cheaper than repairing that damage later. Whether you're selling soon or staying for years, it pays you back either way.
