Cost & Estimates
1. How much does exterior painting cost?
This is one of the most frequent questions people have about painting. It’s hard to know what your budget is when you don’t know what to expect! And it’s a hard question for us to answer because every home is different. To give you a rough idea of what to expect, we’ve created this handy guide for painting costs in and around Portland.
2. What factors affect the price?
There are many variables that can make one similarly sized home cost more or less than another to paint. The quality of paint being used is a major factor. At CertaPro Painters of Portland, we only use high quality products and we always specify exactly which manufacturer and product line will be used on your project. Every paint manufacturer we work with has a range of products to meet different needs at different price points. Other considerations include the height of the surfaces being painted and how they are accessed, landscaping around the home, number of colors, amount of trim, exposure to the elements, and condition of the existing paint.
3. Do you offer free estimates?
Yes, CertaPro Painters of Portland offers complimentary detailed written proposals. We know there are many painting contractors to choose from. Our goal is to exceed your expectations from our initial conversation where we confirm the basics like meeting time, address, and scope of work, to delivery of a proposal that allows you to have confidence in CertaPro’s professionalism and expertise, all the way until the final walk through of your freshly painted home.
4. Is it cheaper to paint in a certain season?
Due to Portland’s climate and short daylight hours even on dry winter days, we have a limited painting season. To get the best value on your exterior painting project, plan early! We recommend getting bids as early in the year as possible, and be sure to ask your painting contractor how long they will honor the price. Be sure to get that in writing!
