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

Oil painting is a traditional fine art technique involving pigments suspended in a drying oil, typically used for canvases and indoor artwork. It requires long drying times and specific solvents for cleanup. Because it is sensitive to temperature changes and cracking, it is not used for residential home exteriors. For your house, we use advanced synthetic exterior coatings that are designed to expand and contract with your siding, ensuring the finish stays flexible and intact throughout the year.

Summer offers long, dry days perfect for quick project turnarounds. The main focus during these months is managing heat. Direct sun can cause paint to dry too rapidly, which prevents a smooth, even layer. Licensed, insured pros serve your area — call now for a free estimate.
