Exterior House Painting
Our exterior jobs start with a full pressure wash, then the crew scrapes loose paint, caulks open joints and primes bare wood. Finish coats go on siding, trim, fascia, doors and window frames.
Service area · Colleyville, TX
State 28 serves Colleyville from our office next door in Grapevine. Big lots and old trees mean a lot of exterior wood here, so fences, decks and trim get as much attention as the walls. If your HOA reviews colors, we plan the start date around its approval.

Our exterior jobs start with a full pressure wash, then the crew scrapes loose paint, caulks open joints and primes bare wood. Finish coats go on siding, trim, fascia, doors and window frames.

A fence takes full sun and sprinkler water every day, so it grays out fast. We clean the boards, fix loose pickets where needed and prime before we paint or stain.

DFW decks bake in the summer and dry out between rains. We pressure wash the boards, let them dry, then paint, stain or seal the deck along with the rails and spindles.

We paint walls, ceilings, trim and doors in occupied homes, one area at a time. The crew covers floors and furniture, patches and primes, and cleans up at the end of each day.

If the cabinet boxes are solid, paint costs far less than new cabinets. We clean and degrease, sand, prime and finish with cabinet-grade paint that stands up to moisture and daily use.

A full exterior wash takes dirt, cobwebs, mildew and algae off siding, brick, trim and concrete. We set the pressure and cleaner for each surface.
Local housing
Colleyville was settled in the 1850s, incorporated on January 10, 1956, and grew mostly through subdivisions built from the 1980s on (Texas State Historical Association).
The houses range from older ranch homes on acreage to 1970s through 2000s subdivisions, gated streets, custom homes and newer infill. Each type wears paint differently. Older ranch homes have more wood siding and trim, and if they were built before 1978 the old coats may contain lead. Brick and stone homes need their painted trim, soffits, shutters, ironwork and garage doors kept up.
Long runs of cedar fence are common on these lots. Sun bakes the open stretches and shade keeps the rest damp, so one fence can need very different prep from end to end. That's why fence painting and deck staining come up so often in Colleyville estimates.
Approvals and permits
City permits. Painting isn't on Colleyville's building permit list. If the paint job is part of a remodel or repair, check with Building Inspections at 100 Main St, 817.503.1030. Source: City of Colleyville submittal guidelines.
HOA color review. Many Colleyville neighborhoods have an architectural control committee (ACC) that approves exterior colors. The usual steps: get the current ACC documents, submit color chips or samples, and wait for written approval before work starts. For an example of what these documents look like, the Westmont HOA posts its ACC documents online. Your HOA's rules may differ, so read your own.
Approval can take a while, so ask your HOA for its current turnaround when you request the estimate.
Heat, hail and timing
Shade is the big factor on Colleyville exteriors. The Colleyville Nature Center at 101 Mill Wood Dr covers 46 acres with nine ponds and 3.5 miles of trails, and the tree cover in nearby neighborhoods is similar. Walls under heavy canopy dry slowly and grow mildew, so we power wash before any paint goes on.
In the open, North Texas sun is hard on finishes. DFW averages 20 days a year at 100°F or more, and fence and deck stain breaks down fastest on south and west exposures.
Tarrant County has averaged about 7.8 hail days a year since 2010, mostly March through June. Settle roof and siding repairs before you repaint.
Our process
We look at the house, note repairs, and give you a written estimate.
Our in-house color consultant helps you narrow choices. We don't file HOA or historic-district color paperwork, but we help you pick colors from the approved palettes. If your HOA reviews colors, its written approval has to be in hand before we start. We schedule around it.
Wash, scrape, repair wood, prime bare spots and caulk. Homes built before 1978 get lead-safe work practices.
A project manager runs the crew and keeps you posted.
We walk the job with you and fix anything you point out before we call it done.

Questions, answered
Painting isn't on the city's permit list. If the painting is part of a remodel or repair, check with Colleyville Building Inspections at 817.503.1030.
If you live in an HOA, usually yes. Check your ACC guidelines, submit color chips, and get written approval before work starts.
Stain soaks into cedar and wears away gradually, so recoating is simpler. Paint gives a solid color and hides old stains, but it can peel and needs more prep each time. Deck and fence staining carries a 1-year warranty.
Shaded walls dry slowly and grow mildew, and leaves and sap stain the surface. We wash first, let the surface dry, and paint shaded sides when the weather allows.
Homes built before 1978 may have lead paint. We use lead-safe practices on older homes and can test before any sanding or scraping.
