Is it better to spray or brush and roll when painting the exterior of a house ?Brushing and rolling is more physically demanding than spraying. Due to the roller possibly skipping after in use for a while, it requires 2 coats for an even looking finish. Have you ever tried rolling paint on an interior wall? Then you know that you have to go back and cover up that first pass to get an even finish. Spraying allows for a more even application which makes the job move faster. Following manufacturer instructions on sprayer tip sizes, the proper thickness of paint can be applied without any worries. If working with a painting company that knows their craft, either process will work just fine. Keep in mind that a reputable painting company will stand behind their workmanship with a lengthy warranty period. That's what you are really seeking--peace of mind that the paint job will last. Anything below 5 years may not be worth the investment.

How long should an exterior paint job last?It all depends on how much UV rays your house is exposed to and if you have proper water drainage. If you look at your house you will see that it fades unevenly. The back side may look worse than the front or vice-versa. You may also see around gutters serious discoloration and possibly wood rot. When selecting the grade of paint, it's important you select a grade that's going to hold up to the elements as long as possible. It may cost you a little more upfront but it will last longer on your house. Would you rather be painting every 5 years or every 8-10 years?

If there's wood rot repairs involved you need to add another 1-2 days.

How many coats of paint are applied?We follow the manufacturers recommendation which for Sherwin Williams premium paints is 1 coat for repaint projects. Applying 2 coats does not guarantee any longer life and will not help against paint fading. If you come across any kind of scientific backed data proving that 2 coats is guaranteed a longer life please let us know. We have not found it yet. Attached are data sheets directly from Sherwin Williams showing the recommended coats of paint on a repaint project. Don't be swayed by a contractor telling you that 2 coats is better than 1.
