Ask when a exterior paint should happen
The useful question is which week is real. If the work is next season, stop the follow-ups and let them reopen it.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
What the calendar really depends on
Exterior paint needs a dry stretch. Name the weeks you can actually start, and do not promise a date in a wet month.
If they need longer
Paint estimates stall on color and on whether the prep feels worth it compared with a cheaper spray bid. Color is often a two-person decision even when one person met you at the house. Do not cut the price by quietly skipping the primer.

Timing for the exterior paint
Hi James, If you want the exterior paint on the calendar, tell me which week is realistic and I will see if I can hold it. The estimate is $6,450. If this is a later-season project, say so and I will stop following up until you ask. Thanks, Mike Chen Harbor Painting
