When do I need to paint my home?

Good question. And unfortunately, not one that has a simple answer. Industry experts will give numbers from every 3-5 years to every 15 years. That’s a big range! The reason though is in the great variability in both climate and materials.
We love the sun, don’t get us wrong, but boy does it do a number on paint. The UV rays from direct sunshine will break down the compounds in paint and cause them to degrade. That’s why you can often see a significant difference in paint that is on the sunny side of your house versus on the shady side. When that paint degrades it loses it’s protective properties and the material underneath becomes susceptible.

​However, wind and rain also wear down in a more physical way the paint on your home as well. Water is a very powerful force, even in seemingly small amounts such as in a raindrop. But when raindrops comes en masse, the force is multiplied over and over again. Eventually that water finds small cracks and crevices to seep into and begins the process of damage that we are all too familiar with.

There are also differences in how the materials underneath your paint handle the climate. Brick, wood, vinyl, cement board, etc all have differing abilities to handle wind, rain, and heat.

How much does it cost to paint my house in Charlottesville?

This gets asked as often as we get calls. We don’t give a flat rate for 2 reasons:
1. Every house if different
​2. Every Homeowner is different

1. No 2 houses are going to be exactly the same. Even if they are identical architecturally, they may have differences in the lot, elevation, sun exposure, age, type of material or paint, and the list goes on. There are too many variables to each and every Cville painting job we take on that we must see the project before we can give pricing with any kind of accuracy. Height of the house and whether scaffolding is needed will dramatically change pricing.

​2. Each and every homeowner is different, and their wants and needs are different too. That’s one of the beauties of humans. One home gets painted completely white while another has 3, 4, or 5 colors to it. One house gets shades of grey and beige while another gets bright and lively colors. One house gets the deck stained while another gets painted grey. One homeowner wants absolutely best quality paint while another has tighter budget constraints.

​We find that each and every project is just a little bit different from the last. We enjoy seeing people put their own personal touch on their home. It’s what makes it home. We do our best to work with every homeowner to make sure they get exactly what they want and need. So while we make suggestions along the way based on our experience, we leave the final decision to you. Because it’s your home.

And remember, we offer FREE consultations and estimates for painting your home. That way you get the best information to make the decision that’s right for you.
