Your Home Protected Year After Year

You know what happens when exterior paint isn’t done right in Colorado. The intense UV rays fade it within two years. The temperature swings crack it. The hail damages it. Then you’re back to square one, spending money again on something that should have lasted.

When your exterior painting is done properly, you get years of protection instead of years of problems. Your home value stays strong. Your curb appeal stays fresh. Most importantly, you’re not dealing with moisture getting behind failed paint and causing real damage to your siding or stucco.

The difference comes down to preparation, materials chosen specifically for Colorado conditions, and application techniques that account for our altitude and weather patterns. Get it right once, and you won’t be repainting every few years.

How We Handle Your Exterior Project

Every exterior painting project starts with a thorough assessment of your current surfaces. We identify any damage, check for moisture issues, and determine what preparation work is needed. This isn’t just a quick look – we’re checking for problems that could cause your new paint job to fail.

Next comes the preparation phase, which is where most painting projects succeed or fail. We handle all necessary scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming. For stucco surfaces, we check for cracks and make repairs. For siding, we ensure proper adhesion and seal any gaps where moisture could penetrate.

The painting phase uses high-quality materials chosen specifically for Colorado’s climate conditions. We apply multiple coats as needed and ensure proper coverage and thickness. Weather conditions are monitored throughout the project to ensure optimal application conditions. Once complete, we handle all cleanup and walk through the finished work with you.

What Your Exterior Project Includes

Your exterior painting project includes complete surface preparation, which is critical for Colorado applications. This means proper cleaning, scraping of loose or failing paint, sanding where needed, and filling any cracks or holes. For stucco surfaces, we address any texture issues or damage before painting begins.

We handle all trim work, siding painting, and detail areas that many contractors rush through or skip entirely. Window trim, door frames, fascia boards, and other detail areas get the same attention as your main surfaces. These areas often show weather damage first, so proper preparation and coating here extends your overall paint job life.

Material selection focuses on products proven to perform in Colorado’s climate. This includes primers that bond properly at our altitude and finish coats that resist UV fading and temperature-related cracking. We also coordinate timing with weather conditions to ensure optimal application and curing conditions for long-lasting results.

How long does exterior paint typically last in Colorado?

In Colorado’s climate, quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years on most surfaces when properly applied. However, this depends heavily on surface preparation, paint quality, and application techniques. Many paint jobs fail in 2-3 years because contractors skip proper preparation or use materials not suited for our altitude and UV exposure. South-facing surfaces typically need attention sooner due to intense sun exposure, while north-facing areas may last longer. The key is using paint formulated for high-altitude, high-UV environments and ensuring proper surface preparation before application.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for exterior painting in Colorado, typically May through September. You need temperatures consistently above 50 degrees and low humidity for proper paint adhesion and curing. Summer can be ideal, but we avoid painting in direct intense sunlight during peak UV hours. Fall can work well with stable weather patterns, but we monitor for early frost conditions. Winter painting is generally not recommended due to temperature fluctuations and moisture issues. Weather conditions matter more than specific months – we’re looking for stable temperatures and dry conditions for optimal results.
Hail damage assessment is part of our standard preparation process since it’s so common in Colorado. Small dents in siding can often be addressed with proper filling and sanding before painting. Larger damage may require siding replacement or professional repair before we can proceed with painting. For stucco surfaces, we check for cracks or chips that could allow moisture penetration. We coordinate with insurance adjusters when needed and can work with your insurance claim process. The key is addressing all damage properly before painting – covering up hail damage with paint alone leads to bigger problems later.
Colorado requires paint specifically formulated for high-altitude, high-UV environments with extreme temperature fluctuations. We use 100% acrylic latex paints that remain flexible through temperature changes and resist UV fading. The paint needs excellent adhesion properties since our dry climate and temperature swings stress the paint film. Primer selection is equally important – we use high-quality bonding primers that work at altitude and provide proper base adhesion. Cheap paint or paint designed for other climates will fail quickly here. We select products with proven track records in Colorado conditions rather than just going with the lowest cost option.
Exterior painting costs in the Campion area typically range from $3-6 per square foot depending on surface type, condition, and preparation needed. Stucco surfaces often cost more due to texture and preparation requirements. Homes needing extensive prep work, repair, or multiple coats will be toward the higher end of the range. Factors affecting cost include current paint condition, surface material, accessibility, and project timing. We provide detailed estimates that break down preparation, materials, and labor costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Extremely low bids often mean corners will be cut on preparation or materials – which costs more in the long run.
Yes, we provide warranties on both workmanship and materials for exterior painting projects. Our workmanship warranty covers application issues, while material warranties depend on the specific products used. Most quality exterior paints come with manufacturer warranties when properly applied. We stand behind our preparation work and application techniques – if paint fails due to our workmanship within the warranty period, we’ll address it. However, warranties don’t cover damage from severe weather events, normal wear in high-exposure areas, or issues caused by building movement or moisture problems not related to our work. We’ll explain warranty terms clearly before starting your project.
