What affects the price

When you get a quote for exterior painting, the final number depends on a few straightforward things. The biggest factors are the total square footage of your home and how many stories high it is. If your siding has rotting wood, major cracks, or old lead paint that needs scraping, that adds labor time. Using premium, long-lasting coatings also shifts the budget compared to standard options. Complex architectural details or trim work often require extra prep. We will get your exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Oil-based paints are known for their durability and smooth finish, as they dry slowly and level out well. Historically, these were common for exterior trim because they create a hard, moisture-resistant shell. Today, they are used selectively where high traffic or extreme durability is required. If your home has older oil-based layers, we ensure the new coat is compatible to prevent adhesion issues. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Summer offers the best conditions for paint to bond quickly, provided it isn't scorching hot. Direct, intense sunlight can cause paint to dry too fast, which leads to brush marks or uneven texture. Our teams often adjust their hours to paint during the cooler parts of the morning. This keeps the finish smooth and durable despite the heat of the season.

Frequently asked in Norman

What kind of paint is best for face painting?

For face painting in Norman, water-based paints designed for skin are the best choice. These are often called 'face paints' or 'theatrical makeup.' They are non-toxic and easy to wash off with soap and water. For longer-lasting effects, alcohol-activated paints are available, but require specific removers. The pros focus on house painting, but understand safe and effective paint use.

What types of paint brushes are there and what do they do?

Paint brushes vary by bristle material and shape. Synthetic bristles are ideal for latex and acrylic paints, while natural bristles work best with oil-based paints. Flat brushes are great for broad strokes on walls and trim. Round brushes are for detailed work, and angled brushes are perfect for cutting in corners. The pros know which brush to use for every part of your home.

What is spray paint good for?

Spray paint is excellent for achieving a smooth, even finish quickly on various surfaces. It's commonly used for furniture, crafts, metal items, and even some decorative accents. It comes in many colors and finishes, including primers and sealants. Proper ventilation and masking are important for safe and effective use. The pros can advise on its application for specific projects.

What is the best paint for fabric?

For fabric painting, acrylic paints specifically labeled for textiles are the best option. These paints are designed to be flexible, durable, and washable after heat setting. They won't crack or peel when the fabric is used or cleaned. You can achieve vibrant, lasting designs on clothing, bags, and home decor. The pros focus on exterior homes, but understand paint properties.

What is body paint and how is it applied?

Body paint refers to pigments applied directly to the skin for artistic or cosmetic purposes. Common types include water-based paints, which are easy to apply and remove, and alcohol-activated paints for more durable effects. It's crucial to use products specifically designed for skin safety. While pros paint houses, they respect the need for safe, specialized paints.

Where can I see Van Gogh's 'Starry Night' painting?

The iconic 'Starry Night' painting by Vincent van Gogh is housed at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City. It's one of their most famous pieces. If you're interested in seeing this masterpiece, you'll need to visit MoMA. We can help you get your Norman home looking beautiful, but can't assist with museum visits.

What are high-quality exterior paints?

High-quality exterior paints offer superior durability and protection. They typically contain more acrylic resin for flexibility, better adhesion, and resistance to cracking. They also have higher levels of titanium dioxide for excellent coverage and fade resistance. Mildew inhibitors are also important for longevity. The pros we partner with use premium paints that last.
