Quality Exterior Painting Process

Here's How We Handle Your Project

We start with a detailed assessment of your home’s exterior surfaces. This isn’t a quick glance and estimate – we’re looking for problem areas, checking for damage, and determining exactly what prep work is needed.

Surface preparation comes next, and this is where most painting projects succeed or fail. We properly clean, scrape, sand, and prime every surface. If there’s wood rot or other damage, we address it before any paint goes on.

Then we apply premium exterior paint designed for Colorado conditions. We protect your landscaping, keep the work area clean, and communicate with you throughout the process. You’ll know exactly what’s happening and when.

The final walkthrough ensures everything meets our standards and yours. We clean up completely and provide you with care instructions and warranty information.

How long does exterior painting typically last in Colorado?

Quality exterior painting in Colorado should last 7-10 years with proper preparation and premium materials. However, this depends heavily on surface prep, paint quality, and application technique. Cheap paint jobs often start failing within 2-3 years due to Colorado’s intense UV exposure and temperature fluctuations. We use paint specifically formulated for mountain climates and focus on thorough surface preparation, which is why our work lasts longer than typical paint jobs in the area.
Late spring through early fall offers the best conditions for exterior painting in Spencer Heights. We typically schedule projects from May through September when temperatures are consistently above 50 degrees and humidity levels are manageable. However, we can work in cooler weather with the right materials and techniques. The key is avoiding painting when temperatures drop below 35 degrees or when there’s moisture on surfaces. We monitor weather conditions closely and adjust schedules to ensure optimal paint adhesion and curing.
Proper surface preparation is crucial for long-lasting exterior paint. We start with pressure washing to remove dirt, mildew, and loose paint. Then we scrape any remaining loose or peeling paint, sand rough areas smooth, and fill cracks or holes with appropriate fillers. Any bare wood or metal gets primed before painting. We also inspect for and address any wood rot or damage that could affect paint adhesion. This prep work takes time, but it’s what separates a professional paint job from one that fails prematurely.
In most cases, we can paint over existing paint if it’s in good condition and properly adhering to the surface. We test the existing paint for adhesion and lead content before proceeding. If the existing paint is peeling, chalking heavily, or incompatible with new paint, we’ll remove it in those areas. Complete paint removal is rarely necessary unless there are multiple layers of failing paint or lead paint concerns. Our assessment process determines the best approach for your specific situation to ensure the new paint adheres properly and lasts.
We use premium exterior paints specifically formulated for harsh climates like Colorado’s. These paints contain advanced UV blockers to prevent fading and chalking from intense mountain sun. They’re also formulated to expand and contract with temperature changes without cracking or peeling. We typically recommend 100% acrylic latex paints for most surfaces, though we may use specialty coatings for metal or masonry. The specific paint choice depends on your surface type, color preferences, and budget, but we never compromise on quality when it comes to weather resistance.
Exterior painting costs vary significantly based on home size, surface condition, prep work needed, and paint quality. Most Spencer Heights homes range from $8,000 to $25,000 for complete exterior painting. Factors affecting price include surface area, number of stories, accessibility, extent of prep work required, and paint grade selected. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. Remember that the cheapest bid often costs more in the long run when the paint fails prematurely and needs redoing.
