(844) 505-4010How often have you asked for three bids on a large painting job and received very different numbers? Why is that? In a word: Scope.
Many factors determine the cost of painting the exterior of a building including:
- Type of surface to be coated
- Extent of prep needed including pressure washing and primer coat
- Caulking expansion joints and repair of masonry, stucco and metal surfaces
- Number of coats required
- Amount of trim work
- Type of paint – latex, elastomeric, polyurethane, industrial enamel
- Brand of paint – not all paints are equal in quality or expected lifespan
To avoid surprises and unsatisfactory results, make sure all painting bids are based on the same scope.
