Painting · How long
Say how long a exterior paint takes
People go quiet when they cannot picture the disruption. Say what the days look like. Do not promise a start date you do not have.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
The real schedule
Exterior paint needs a dry stretch. Name the weeks you can actually start, and do not promise a date in a wet month. Color is often a two-person decision even when one person met you at the house.
What the price is not
The $6,450 includes scrape, prime, and two coats on the siding, trim, and the garage door walked that day. It does not include the detached shed, which was not part of the walk. Do not cut the price by quietly skipping the primer.
