"Dominik and his team provided exceptional customer service and completed a really tricky paint job of a 1906-year old houseâ s front porch in late November, just before the first big snow! They broke up the tasks so the job could be safely and effectively completed, considering we had some nice weather, followed by a snow storm, then two nice days. The quality is the best Iâ ve ever seen, absolutely perfect! The wood was rotting and there was so much paint chipped and peeling, but Dominik and his crew cut new wood for the base of the columns and scraped the old paint (from 1999!) so thoroughly. The porch now looks stunning! I will definitely hire this crew in the Spring to finish the rest of my houseâ s exterior."

We are an owner operated company. The owner, Greg, having over 20 years experience in the painting field, works on, and oversees all jobs with the help of a small, professional crew. All painters have at least 5 years experience, are detail oriented, well mannered and always professional. We do mostly interiors and some small exterior projects. Anything from a single room to a whole house interior, condo, or office suite. We also do projects for condo associations and property management companies such as stairwells and common areas. We focus on one project at a time from start to finish. No skipping from job to job. Cost is determined by the job. Prices include all labor and materials including paint. We generally use Benjamin Moore paints. We get good prices on paint and pass our savings on to our customers. We have a long list of happy, satisfied customers. We also get a lot of repeat customers and referrals. Please feel free to contact Greg via phone or email to schedule a free estimate. You will not be disappointed!

"Greg was recommended to us 4 years ago by friends who completed their entire home gut reno project including extensive painting, so when it was time for us to do the same, we took our friends' recommendation to call him and are so glad that we did! We've been working with Greg and his team for the past 4 years on other painting projects at our prior home, but most recently (and extensively), he and his team painted the entire interior of our new home, which included all walls, ceilings, new crown moulding and new baseboards, as well as brand new interior doors throughout the home that were spray painted. They also painted the interior of our garage. This project was complicated by the fact that many of the walls had wainscoting, so his team had an extra level of detail to account for. Additionally, they worked around the schedules of other contractors who were completing a gut renovation simultaneously in the house and to make it even a little more complicated, we were also living through the whole renovation as it was happening. Greg and his team were the consummate professionals, working with us on scheduling, proving to be flexible and accommodating to our ever changing needs. Their attention to detail is something we are so grateful for. Additionally, they are just the most pleasant people to have working in our home, which is something we don't take for granted. They're so professional, very easy to communicate with and fair with pricing. We have several smaller projects on the horizon and will have Greg back to complete the painting portion of all of them. We've recommended Greg to several friends and neighbors (the neighbors were very keen on knowing all about Greg as they were so impressed with the work as it was happening). Can't recommend him enough!"

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.
