How much does exterior house painting cost in the Aurora and Denver area?
Most full exterior repaints in the Aurora and Denver metro area typically start around $4,000 for a smaller single-story home and commonly land in the $6,000 to $12,000 range for a two-story home. The final number depends on square footage, siding condition, the amount of prep and carpentry repair needed, and how many colors are used. We do not quote fixed prices without seeing the home, so every estimate follows a free on-site walkthrough.
How long does exterior painting take?
A typical single-family exterior repaint takes three to five working days. Larger homes, heavy prep, or extensive trim repair can extend that to a week or more. Colorado weather is the main variable, so we build a small buffer into every schedule.
What is the best time of year to paint a house in Colorado?
Late spring through early fall, roughly May to October, gives the most reliable conditions for exterior work. Paint needs surface temperatures above about 50°F and dry conditions while it cures. Interior painting can be done year-round.
Do I need to prep my house before painters arrive?
Very little. We handle washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, masking, and priming. Homeowners only need to move fragile items and small furniture away from work areas and clear vehicles or patio furniture from the perimeter for exterior jobs.
