Professional Exterior Painter Rex

Your Home Protected for Years

You’re tired of watching your exterior paint fade, crack, and peel after just a few Colorado seasons. The intense UV at our altitude, plus hail, snow, and those wild temperature swings – it’s brutal on standard paint jobs.

When your exterior painting is done right, you get years of protection instead of constant touch-ups. Your home looks sharp, your property value stays strong, and you’re not dealing with the headache of premature paint failure.

The difference is in the prep work, the materials, and understanding what actually works in Rex’s climate. Most contractors skip the details that matter. We don’t.

How We Handle Your Project

First, we assess your home’s current condition and discuss your goals. We’re looking at surface types, existing paint condition, and any prep work that needs attention before we even talk about color.

Next comes the detailed preparation – and this is where most contractors cut corners. We handle scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming properly because this foundation determines how long your paint job lasts.

Then we apply your chosen paint system using techniques designed for Colorado’s climate. We protect your landscaping, manage the mess, and keep you informed throughout the process. When we’re done, your home is ready to handle whatever weather comes next.

Quality Exterior Painting Rex

What Your Project Includes

Your exterior painting project covers complete surface preparation, high-quality weather-resistant paints, and professional application techniques. We handle siding painting, stucco painting, trim work, and any other exterior surfaces that need attention.

You get color consultation if you need it, detailed prep work including scraping and priming, and cleanup that leaves your property looking better than when we started. We use paints specifically chosen for Colorado’s high-altitude UV exposure and temperature extremes.

The goal is simple: a paint job that looks great now and still looks great years from now. That means doing the work right the first time, using materials that can handle Rex’s climate, and not cutting corners on the details that matter.

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

Quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years in Colorado when applied properly, but many homeowners see failure in 3-5 years due to poor preparation or wrong materials. Colorado’s intense UV exposure at high altitude, plus temperature swings and weather extremes, are harder on paint than most climates. The key is using high-quality, UV-resistant paints designed for our conditions and doing thorough surface preparation. Cheap paint jobs fail fast here – it’s not worth the savings when you’re repainting every few years.

What's the best time of year for exterior painting in Rex?

Late spring through early fall gives us the most reliable weather windows, typically May through September. We need temperatures above 50 degrees and dry conditions for proper paint curing. Colorado weather can be unpredictable, so we stay flexible with scheduling and watch forecasts carefully. Summer heat can actually be challenging too – paint doesn’t apply well in extreme heat, so we sometimes start early or work later in the day. The key is patience and timing the work right rather than rushing through poor conditions.

Do you handle both siding and stucco painting?

Yes, we work with all common exterior surfaces in the Rex area – vinyl siding, wood siding, stucco, concrete, and trim materials. Each surface has different prep requirements and paint needs. Stucco often needs crack repair and special primers, while siding might need caulking and more detailed prep work. We assess what you have and use the right approach for each surface. Many homes have multiple surface types, so we’re used to handling variety within a single project and making sure everything looks cohesive when finished.

How do you protect against Colorado hail damage affecting fresh paint?

We can’t prevent hail damage, but we use durable paint systems that hold up better to impact and weather stress. High-quality paints with good flexibility and adhesion are less likely to chip or peel when hit by small hail. For larger hail events that damage everyone’s exterior surfaces, having a properly painted surface actually makes insurance claims and repairs easier to handle. We also recommend timing – if severe weather is forecast during hail season, we might suggest waiting for a clearer weather window rather than risking fresh paint getting damaged immediately.

What's included in your surface preparation process?

Surface prep is where most paint jobs succeed or fail, so we take it seriously. We start with pressure washing to remove dirt and loose material, then scrape any peeling or flaking paint. Next comes sanding rough areas, filling holes or cracks, and caulking gaps around trim and joints. Finally, we prime any bare surfaces or areas where we’ve scraped to bare material. This process takes time, but it’s what makes paint adhere properly and last through Colorado’s weather cycles. Skipping prep steps is the fastest way to get paint failure within a few years.

How do you handle color selection and matching existing colors?

We can work with colors you’ve already chosen or help you select new ones if you want a change. For matching existing colors, we can usually get close with color matching technology, though faded paint makes exact matches challenging. When selecting new colors, we consider your home’s style, neighborhood character, and how different colors hold up in Colorado sun. Darker colors show fading more quickly, while lighter colors reflect UV better. We’ll bring samples and discuss options based on your goals and what works best long-term in our climate.
