What affects the price
The final bill for painting your home depends on a few moving parts. First, consider the total surface area and the number of stories. Larger homes or those with tricky architectural features naturally require more labor and specialized equipment. The condition of your siding is another big factor; if there is significant wood rot, peeling paint, or heavy mildew, those areas need extra prep work before a brush ever touches the wall. The choice of paint grade also shifts the total. We get you exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
Spray paint typically refers to aerosol cans used for small DIY touch-ups or craft projects. While these are convenient for a mailbox or a small metal bracket, they are not suitable for painting an entire house. Professional exterior painting requires industrial-grade equipment that sprays high-quality, durable latex or oil-based coatings. If you have large exterior areas that are fading or peeling, we use professional-grade airless sprayers that provide a much thicker, longer-lasting barrier against the sun and moisture than any aerosol can.
Frequently asked in Allentown
What's the best type of paint for an Allentown exterior?
For Allentown homes, the best exterior paint depends on the surface. High-quality acrylic latex paints are generally recommended due to their durability and flexibility in changing weather. They resist cracking and peeling, which is crucial with our humid summers and cold winters. Pros can assess your home's siding and recommend the optimal finish and product. This ensures a long-lasting, attractive result specific to our region.

What's the difference between spray painting and brush/roller application?
Spray painting offers a faster application and a smooth finish, often ideal for larger, simpler surfaces. However, it requires careful masking to protect surrounding areas. Brush and roller application allows for more control, especially on detailed areas or when dealing with textured surfaces. Pros will determine the best method for your home's specific needs during their assessment.
