What affects the price
The final bill for painting your home depends on a few practical details. First, the total surface area and the number of stories play a big role, as taller houses require more safety equipment. We also look at the current condition of your siding; if there is significant wood rot, peeling paint, or mildew that needs scraping and repair, that adds labor time. The type of paint you choose—such as premium weather-resistant formulas—and the complexity of the trim work also shift the numbers. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Do I need primer for my exterior paint job?
Yes, primer is often a crucial step in exterior painting, especially in Syracuse where homes may have older surfaces or significant color changes. Primer helps paint adhere better, seals the surface, blocks stains, and ensures a more uniform and long-lasting finish. The pros will determine if and what type of primer is needed for your specific project.
What's the difference between oil-based and latex exterior paint?
Latex (water-based) exterior paints are generally more flexible, easier to clean up, and dry faster, making them a popular choice for Syracuse homes. Oil-based paints can offer a harder finish but are less flexible and can become brittle over time. Modern latex formulations offer excellent durability and performance for most exterior applications.
