How Much Will It Cost to Paint My Home’s Exterior in the Greater Media Area?
CertaPro’s Guide to Exterior Painting Pricing in the Greater Media Region
Many homeowners want a clear understanding of pricing to help them budget their exterior painting projects. To assist with this, we’ve put together this guide to provide a general idea of costs. Keep in mind that these prices are only averages, and several factors can impact the final cost.
Factors That Affect the Cost of Your Exterior Painting Project
The Number of Surfaces Being Painted
Are we painting just the siding, or will we also be painting trim, shingles, decks, or shutters? More surfaces will increase the overall cost.
Surface Conditions
If your home’s exterior has peeling paint, cracks, or wood rot, additional prep work such as sanding, filling, and priming will be required, increasing labor costs.
Home Height & Accessibility
A single-story home is easier to paint than a multi-story home. Taller homes or those with complex architectural details may require additional equipment and labor.
Color Changes
If you’re switching from a light to a dark color (or vice versa), additional coats of paint may be needed. Standard pricing typically includes one or two coats, but drastic color changes may require a tinted primer and two to three top coats for full coverage.
Sample Pricing for Typical Homes in the Greater Media Area
Below are some estimated prices based on common home styles in the Greater Media region. These estimates assume:
- Clapboard and trim: Spot priming (only priming areas that are raw, sanded, or prepped)
- Topcoat: One coat of quality exterior paint

Investing in high-quality paint not only enhances your home’s curb appeal but also extends the life of your paint job, saving you money in the long run.
