Exterior Painting Pricing (Current as of July 2024)

One of the most common questions we receive is how much does it cost to paint the exterior of a home. To help people with this question on our website, we’ve identified some homes typical of the area and the average price to paint their exterior.

These prices are NOT quotes – they are just averages. Every house is unique and deserves it’s own price, which could be less or more than the price identified below.

Factors Affecting the Price of Exterior Painting in Northern Virginia

Many factors affect the pricing of exterior painting in Northern Virginia.

  • – Size
  • – Type of Siding
  • – Porch or Deck
  • – Trim
  • – Foundation

The above are just some of the factors our estimator considers when quoting exterior painting in the Fairfax and Prince William area. We also consider preparation.

Preparation for Painting

The conditions of the surfaces we’ll be painting makes a difference in preparation cost. If there are lots of areas of failing paint, caulking, bare substrate, holes, we’ll need to add more labor time to your quote to make those repairs and properly prepare the surfaces.

Preparation includes replacing rotten wood, fixing stucco, or performing any other light carpentry services.

Rotten Wood Replacement

We have carpenters on staff to replace the rotted wood you may have on your home. Paint cannot be applied over rotted wood surfaces because the moisture in the rotted wood will cause the paint to degrade and fail very quickly, usually within a few months of painting.
