Professional House Exterior Painting Wellington

Your Home Protected and Beautiful

You know what happens to exterior paint in Colorado. The sun beats it down, hail batters it, and those temperature swings crack it apart. Within a few years, you’re looking at peeling, fading, and that weathered look that screams “needs work.”

When we handle your exterior painting, you get protection that actually lasts. We use paint systems designed for Front Range conditions – coatings that flex with temperature changes, resist UV damage, and hold their color through Colorado’s intense sun.

Your home looks sharp, your investment stays protected, and you’re not dealing with touch-ups every couple of years. That’s the difference between a paint job and professional exterior painting that’s built to perform.

How long does exterior paint typically last in Wellington's climate?

Quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years in Wellington when properly applied, though this depends on your home’s exposure and the paint system used. South and west-facing sides take more UV punishment and may need attention sooner. We use paint formulated for Colorado’s intense sun and temperature swings, which significantly extends durability. Homes with previous paint failures often had issues with surface prep or paint quality – not necessarily the timeline. A professional paint job with quality materials will definitely outlast budget options that might need repainting in 3-4 years.
Late spring through early fall gives us the most consistent weather windows, typically May through September. We need temperatures above 50°F and dry conditions for proper paint adhesion and curing. Summer can be ideal, but we often start early morning to avoid afternoon heat that can cause paint to dry too quickly. Fall painting works well before temperatures drop consistently below 50°F. We monitor weather forecasts closely and won’t start if rain or extreme temperature swings are predicted. Winter painting is possible during warm spells, but scheduling becomes less predictable.
Each siding type needs specific preparation for paint to adhere properly and last. Wood siding gets scraped, sanded, and any rot or damage repaired before priming. Stucco requires pressure washing and crack filling with appropriate sealers. Fiber cement usually needs light sanding and cleaning, while metal siding gets cleaned and any rust treated. We always prime bare surfaces – this step is crucial for paint adhesion and longevity. Skipping proper prep is the main reason paint jobs fail early. The prep work takes time, but it’s what separates a lasting paint job from one that starts peeling in a year or two.
Yes, we help with color selection and can provide samples for you to test on your home’s exterior. Most homes look best with 2-3 colors maximum – main body color, trim color, and possibly an accent color for doors or shutters. We’ll discuss colors that complement your roof, landscaping, and neighborhood while considering how different colors perform in Colorado sun. Some colors fade faster than others, and we’ll let you know if your choice might need more frequent touch-ups. We can also advise on HOA requirements if applicable, since some neighborhoods have color restrictions.
We warranty our workmanship for two years and will address any issues with paint adhesion, coverage, or application defects during that period. Paint manufacturers typically provide their own warranties on materials – usually 15-25 years depending on the product line, though these are often prorated. Our warranty covers proper surface preparation, application technique, and workmanship quality. Normal wear from weather exposure isn’t covered, but premature peeling, cracking from poor prep, or coverage issues definitely are. We’ll return to fix any problems that result from our work, not just patch them temporarily.
We cover plants, outdoor furniture, walkways, and anything else that could get paint splatter with plastic sheeting and drop cloths before work begins. Delicate plants close to the house get extra protection, and we’re careful with sprinkler systems and outdoor lighting. Any overspray or drips get cleaned up immediately – it’s much easier to prevent damage than fix it later. We’ll move outdoor furniture if needed or work around it if you prefer. At the end of each day, we secure all coverings so wind doesn’t damage your landscaping overnight. Final cleanup includes removing all protective materials and checking for any missed spots or debris.
