Neartown-Montrose Exterior Painting
the Neartown-Montrose area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the exterior painting scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Afternoon storms in summer force us to work elevations in sequence, not all at once.

What exterior painting costs in Neartown-Montrose
Beware of any contractor who prices exterior painting sight unseen. These are the variables that decide the real number at your Neartown-Montrose home, and why we look before we quote.
- Body-only versus body, trim, doors, shutters and gutters
- One or two stories, and how much of the house ladders can't reach
- How much scraping, sanding and priming the old coating needs
- Coating grade: the difference shows up in years, not in the first week
