Exterior Painting Ardmore, OK

Most full-home exterior repaints run one to two weeks, weather permitting. Smaller scope projects — a deck, a front door, just the trim — can be done in a few days. Large homes or multi-structure properties take longer. Weather is the biggest variable we work around, and we won't apply paint outside manufacturer-specified conditions even if it pushes the schedule back a few days.

April through October is our peak exterior season. Spring and fall give the most predictable temperature and humidity conditions. We work year-round when conditions allow, but we won't paint in extreme heat, high humidity, or freezing temperatures — regardless of schedule pressure.

Yes. Minor carpentry work — rotted trim, damaged fascia, weathered window casings — is included as standard prep on exterior projects. Larger structural repairs get scoped separately on the same estimate. Either way, the rot gets properly addressed before any paint goes on. More about carpentry services →

No. Painting over failed paint passes the failure through to the new coat and voids the warranty on the new work. Every exterior project includes scraping, sanding, and proper surface prep so the new product bonds to a sound substrate.

Not for day-to-day exterior work. Most exterior projects don't require you to be present once the initial walkthrough is done. Your project manager coordinates access, sends daily updates in whatever format works best for you, and keeps the property protected throughout. You pick how involved you want to be.

Both, depending on what the surface needs. Most exterior body work is sprayed and back-rolled — the fastest method for large surfaces with the best finish uniformity. Trim, detail work, and areas near landscaping, windows, or adjacent surfaces that can't be masked easily are brushed or rolled. Your estimate will explain what approach we're using and why.

Drop cloths and plastic sheeting cover plantings and outdoor furniture closest to the home. Shrubs and perennials near the foundation are tied back or covered as needed during spray work. Pressure washing is done at distances that protect beds, turf, and any outdoor features near the house.

Most exterior paints are dry to the touch within a few hours of application, but full cure — meaning full hardness and maximum UV resistance — takes 7 to 30 days depending on the product and weather conditions. We'll walk you through what to avoid during the cure period, primarily power washing and heavy scrubbing against painted surfaces.

Usually yes. A paint can label, a small sample chip, or a piece of trim is enough for us to run a color match. If the existing paint has faded significantly, we'll explain the difference between a matched sample and how it reads against weathered surfaces — sometimes a slight adjustment produces a better overall result than an exact match.

A 2-to-5 year package-tiered written warranty — Basic, Better, or Best depending on the package selected at estimate — plus a $25,000 third-party-backed guarantee through The Good Contractors List. Warranty issues are responded to within 24 hours and receive an on-site inspection within 48 business hours. All terms are written into your project paperwork before work begins.
