Exterior Painting
When a home's exterior looks faded, weathered, or no longer reflects the care put into the property, professional exterior painting delivers one of the most dramatic transformations possible.
Constant rain, UV, and temperature swings fade and crack paint fast. Crews that skip proper prep set the work up to fail within months.
We power wash, repair rot, and scrape loose paint before priming and coating — prep-first, built for Pacific Northwest conditions.

Exterior Painting FAQ
Late spring through early fall (May through September) offers the most consistent weather for exterior painting in Seattle.
We monitor weather forecasts closely and schedule work during predicted dry periods. If unexpected rain occurs, we protect all work surfaces and pause until conditions are appropriate for painting.
Most homes in Seattle need exterior repainting every 7 to 12 years depending on paint quality, surface preparation, sun exposure, and maintenance.
Exterior painting costs depend on home size, siding type, current paint condition, necessary repairs, and project complexity. Most residential exterior projects in the Seattle area range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more.
5-Year Workmanship Warranty
Covers peeling caused by inadequate surface prep or improper application on areas we painted — labor and materials included, scheduled within 12 months of notification.
Exact color matching cannot be guaranteed due to normal weathering and aging of the original coating.
Built for Pacific Northwest Homes
Rain, moisture, older wood siding, and temperature swings make exterior prep critical here. We plan around it instead of painting over it.
