We remain committed to providing you with the same high-quality service you have come to expect during these unprecedented times. We will be conducting consultations regarding estimates over email and phone in lieu of in-person appointments until the stay at home order is lifted. Find out how to schedule a virtual appointment by visiting info.dynamiccolorsinc.com/2020proposals AWARDED BY CHICAGO MAGAZINE AS "BEST HOUSE PAINTER". COST IS DETERMINED BY THE JOB. NO TRAVEL CHARGE. NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR AFTER HOURS SERVICE. ASK ABOUT ANGIES LIST DISCOUNT. THREE ROOM INTERIOR MINIMUM AND $1,500 MINIMUM FOR EXTERIOR.

"We hired Dynamic Colors to paint a bedroom (including closet), full bath, and powder room in our house. We had removed an old wall mounted sink from the powder room and replaced plumbing prior to painting, so the walls and ceiling were in need of extensive patching. The bedroom plaster ceiling was cracked and uneven and also in need of repair. Of the three companies we called for estimates, Anthony of DC spent the most time with us to understand and assess the work. Although his quote was not the least expensive of the three, we chose DC because we were most confident in them to take the time to perform the prep work correctly. Anthony arrived with the crew on day one to go over the work with his painters and us together. He visited throughout the job to ensure the work was being done correctly and address any of our concerns. When he was not present on site, he was always readily available by phone/text. All three painters in the crew were very capable, polite, and careful in our home to protect areas around where they were working. Anthony inspected the job toward the end and pointed out areas that his crew needed touch up before finishing (items I would probably never have noticed with my own eye). We were very happy with the finished work and the level of service Anthony and his crew provided. I would not hesitate to hire them again."

Exterior home or structure paint or stains FAQs

A single gallon of exterior paint covers approximately 350-400 square feet, which translates to eight to 12 standard-sized shutters, depending on their dimensions. Factors affecting coverage include shutter material, surface condition, and application method. Porous surfaces like weathered wood may require additional paint, while smooth vinyl surfaces might need less. Always purchase slightly more paint than your calculations suggest to avoid running short.

Each application method has distinct advantages. Spray painting creates a smooth, even finish and works well for louvered or detailed shutters, but requires more preparation to prevent overspray. Brushing allows for better control and paint penetration into crevices, though it takes longer and may show brush marks. Your choice should depend on the shutter design and whether the shutters will be painted in place or removed.

Exterior shutters need repainting every four to seven years, though this varies based on climate conditions, sun exposure, and shutter material. Signs that indicate repainting is needed include fading, chalking, cracking, or peeling paint. Wood shutters in humid or rainy environments may require more frequent attention than those in drier climates. Regular inspections help identify when maintenance is needed before damage occurs.

Removing shutters before painting offers several advantages, including easier access to all surfaces and hardware. This approach allows for more thorough preparation and eliminates the risk of paint getting on surrounding surfaces. However, removal adds time to the project and presents challenges with second-story shutters. If safety concerns or hardware issues make removal difficult, on-site painting with proper masking and drop cloths is a viable alternative.

Painting shutters is significantly more economical than replacement when the underlying structure remains sound. With replacement costs ranging from $45 to $420 per shutter plus installation, repainting at $4 to $33 per shutter represents substantial savings. However, if shutters show significant structural damage, warping, or deterioration, replacement might prove more cost-effective long-term. The decision should balance current condition, desired appearance, and budget considerations.
