A typical single-story home exterior runs $2,500–$5,000 depending on square footage, siding condition, and number of coats. Homes requiring extensive prep (scraping, priming, rot repair) will cost more. Always get itemized estimates.
Late spring through early fall — roughly May through September — gives the best painting conditions. Avoid painting when temperatures drop below 50°F or rain is expected within 24 hours of application.
Look for exterior paints with mildew-resistant additives and high moisture resistance. Brands like Sherwin-Williams Duration and Benjamin Moore Aura are popular choices. Proper prep — including priming bare wood — matters more than paint brand alone.
