How long does exterior paint last in mountain climates?

In mountain communities, exterior paint typically lasts 3-4 seasons due to extreme weather conditions. Factors affecting durability include sun exposure (south and west-facing surfaces deteriorate faster), proper preparation, and paint quality. We use premium paints with UV inhibitors and mildew resistance specifically formulated for mountain conditions.

What preparation is required before exterior painting?

Our thorough preparation process includes comprehensive surface cleaning, removal of dirt and contaminants, repair of damaged surfaces (stucco, wood), sanding and smoothing, proper priming, and protection of non-painted areas. We pay special attention to issues common in our region like sun damage, moisture-related issues, and climate-specific concerns.

What types of paint do you use for exterior projects?

We use commercial-grade, weather-resistant paints specifically formulated for your climate. Our premium exterior paints include high-quality acrylic latex paints with high UV resistance for exterior surfaces with special additives to withstand intense sun exposure, temperature fluctuations, and moisture conditions typical in your region.

Exterior House Painting

Exterior home painting is physically challenging. Prep work can often be under appreciated. A quality job begins with having a good surface to work with. Prep work requires patience and expertise that tends to get glossed over by non-professionals. Proper preparation will entail pressure washing, sanding, caulking, patching and removing chips, peels, mold, mildew, lead paint, and all other imperfections. Proper prep and priming will enhance surface consistency for paint adhesion and long lasting quality results.

Prior to applying any paint, patio furniture, potted plants and any other surfaces that are not being painted must be removed and/or covered. A product will be chosen after the color scheme has been decided. Depending upon your substrate, different products will give you different results for color. Moorhouse Coating has professional color consultants who can assist you with choosing the right color combinations for your home. Our exterior home painters will then use high-quality material to make a project as vibrant and long-lasting as possible.
