Exterior House Painting in San Diego

Last Updated: September 22, 2020

Okay… Confession time.

We can fall into the trap of calling our most recent project our favorite project, but in reality, how many “favorites” can we actually have, right? It’s easy to get invested as we pour ourselves into those transformed surfaces and fresh colors. What can we say: we love what we do!

But this exterior painting transformation? Well, this one might truly be in our list of “all-time favorites.”

Take a closer look, and we know you won’t blame us.

Our Mission

Faded blue paint… Tired surfaces… Rot that needed repair/replacement… There was a lot stacked up against this home, making it more than time for a full repaint.

As a quick recap, our process is totally committed to doing the job right, relying on time-tested craftsmanship. This includes:

  • Thorough cleaning
  • Surface repairs
  • Sanding
  • Priming
  • Did we mention sanding?
  • High-quality topcoats

And, in this case, we also refinished the stunning front door.

Exterior House Painting: A Total Transformation

And now for the reveal!

We are in love with this inviting, warm palette. The soft yellow just glows in our San Diego sun, balanced by the complementary white trim. As a natural focal point, character and charm exudes from the front door.
