Interior Exterior Painting Process

Here's Exactly What You Can Expect

First, we come out to see your project in person. No guessing at square footage or trying to give you a price over the phone. We measure everything, assess the current condition, and discuss exactly what you want to accomplish.

You get a detailed estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline. No surprises, no hidden fees, no “we’ll figure it out as we go” approach. You know what you’re paying and what you’re getting before we start.

When we begin the actual work, we protect your belongings and landscaping. Proper surface preparation comes first – scraping, sanding, filling, and priming where needed. Then we apply your paint using techniques that ensure even coverage and clean lines. We clean up completely each day and do a final walkthrough with you when everything’s finished.

How long does exterior paint last in Colorado's climate?

Quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years in Colorado when applied correctly with proper surface preparation. The key is using paint specifically formulated for extreme weather conditions and ensuring the surface is properly prepped before application. Cheap paint or poor prep work can fail in as little as 2-3 years. We use premium exterior paints that resist fading, cracking, and peeling, even with Arrowhead’s temperature swings, UV exposure, and moisture from snow and rain.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for exterior painting in Arrowhead. We typically schedule exterior projects from May through September when temperatures are consistently above 50 degrees and humidity levels are manageable. Paint needs adequate time to cure before freezing temperatures hit. However, interior painting can be done year-round since we control the environment. We’ll always check weather forecasts before starting exterior work to ensure optimal conditions for paint adhesion and curing.
We take protection seriously because we know how much you’ve invested in your landscaping and belongings. Before any work begins, we cover plants, outdoor furniture, and walkways with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. Delicate plants get extra attention with specialized coverings that allow airflow while blocking paint spray. Inside, we move furniture to the center of rooms and cover everything with protective materials. We also use cardboard and tape to protect flooring, fixtures, and anything else that shouldn’t get paint on it.
Yes, color consultation is part of our service when you need it. We can help you choose colors that work well with your property’s architecture, neighborhood aesthetic, and personal preferences. We’ll bring color samples to your property so you can see how they look in different lighting conditions throughout the day. For exteriors, we consider factors like your roof color, stone or brick accents, and surrounding landscape. We also advise on paint finishes – whether you need satin, semi-gloss, or flat paint for different surfaces and applications.
Surface preparation is where most painting projects succeed or fail, so we don’t skip steps. For exteriors, this includes pressure washing, scraping loose paint, sanding rough areas, filling cracks and holes, and applying primer where needed. Interior prep involves filling nail holes, caulking gaps, sanding imperfections, and priming stained or previously unpainted surfaces. We also remove outlet covers, light fixtures, and hardware that might interfere with painting. Proper prep work takes time, but it’s what makes the difference between a paint job that lasts and one that starts failing within a couple years.
Timeline depends on the size and complexity of your project, but we’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront. A typical interior room takes 1-2 days including prep and cleanup. Whole house interiors usually take 3-5 days. Exterior projects vary more based on size and weather – a standard home exterior typically takes 3-7 days. We factor in drying time between coats and potential weather delays for exterior work. We’ll communicate with you throughout the project about progress and any adjustments to the timeline, so you’re never left wondering when we’ll be finished.
