EXTERIOR PAINTING
A fresh impression.
A home that stands out.
A well-painted exterior starts with the surface underneath. MGC Painting cleans, prepares and repairs the agreed areas before applying the finish coats, with attention to the details around your siding, trim, windows and doors.

YOUR HOME’S EXTERIOR
From broad surfaces
to the finishing details.
Exterior painting brings the home’s main surfaces and architectural details together. Your estimate can cover a complete repaint or the specific areas you want to refresh.
- Exterior siding and painted surfaces
- Exterior doors and surrounding trim
- Architectural details within the agreed scope
- Full exterior repaints or selected areas
CAREFUL WORK FROM START TO FINISH
Our Exterior Painting Process
Wash away dirt and buildup. For a full exterior repaint, we pressure-wash the house first, using cleaning products as needed to remove dirt and buildup that could interfere with paint adhesion.
Allow the surfaces to dry. We normally return the next day after washing and check that the areas are dry before proceeding. We start with surfaces that are ready; the condition of the house determines when painting can begin.
Scrape, sand and repair. We remove loose and peeling paint, sand rough areas, and complete the repairs included in your estimate. We fill and caulk where needed, paying attention to gaps and damaged areas before they are painted.
Prime and protect. We prime the areas that need it. When spraying, we mask windows and protect nearby surfaces to keep overspray off areas that are not being painted.
Apply two finish coats. We apply two coats by spray or roller, according to the project and the agreed approach. The paint product and finish are selected with you before the work begins.

Exterior Paint Options

We discuss the finish with you, including satin or semi-gloss, so the selected product and appearance are clear in your estimate.
YOUR PROJECT YOUR OPTIONS
Clear Decisions About Repairs
Preparation can reveal damage that was not apparent during the estimate. A small, quick repair may be handled as a courtesy. Larger repairs, such as replacing a section of damaged exterior trim, are discussed separately.
We show you the issue, explain the repair or replacement options and the additional cost, and get your approval before proceeding. Agreed changes are documented as a change order.
Milton regularly works alongside the crew, checking that the preparation and painting meet MGC Painting’s quality standards.
