## Exterior painting Siding, trim, soffit, fascia, decks, and doors — prepped for Minnesota, where paint fights UV all summer and freeze-thaw all winter. ### Our prep - **Wash** the whole exterior and let it dry - **Scrape and sand** failing paint back to a sound edge - **Repair** rotted trim, fascia, and siding boards before coating - **Caulk** joints, seams, and penetrations - **Prime** all bare wood and every stain-prone area - Two finish coats of a 100% acrylic exterior product ### Timing in Minnesota The window is roughly **May through early October**. Paint needs surface temperatures above the manufacturer minimum, including overnight, and it needs dry substrate. Painting too late in October is how you get a finish that fails by spring. ### Typical cost | Home | Typical | |---|---| | Single-story, average | $4,000 – $8,000 | | Two-story | $7,000 – $15,000 | | Trim, soffit, fascia only | $2,000 – $5,000 | | Deck or fence staining | Priced separately | ### Paint or side? If you are on your third repaint and the wood is checked and soft, new siding may cost less over 20 years than repainting every six. We do both, so we will give you the honest comparison instead of just selling the paint job.
