01. Cleaning & Protection
We start by thoroughly cleaning the exterior surface to remove dirt, grime, and any existing paint that's peeling or flaking. We then protect surrounding areas such as windows, doors, and landscaping with drop cloths, tape, and plastic sheeting to prevent any damage or overspray during the painting process.
02. Surface Preparation
Next, we prepare the surface for painting by addressing any imperfections such as cracks, holes, or rough spots. This may involve sanding, scraping, or power washing to ensure a smooth and even surface for optimal paint adhesion. If necessary, we also apply primer to bare wood or metal surfaces to promote better paint adhesion and longevity.
03. Exterior Painting
Once the surface is properly prepared, our skilled painters apply high-quality exterior paint using brushes, rollers, or sprayers, depending on the specific requirements of the project. We carefully apply multiple coats of paint to achieve even coverage and vibrant color, paying close attention to detail to ensure a flawless finish.
04. Inspection & Cleanup
After the paint has dried, we conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that every aspect of the job meets our high standards of quality and craftsmanship. Finally, we clean up the work area, removing any drop cloths, tape, and other protective materials, leaving your property looking clean and refreshed. Any leftover paint is carefully labeled and we leave it with you in case you need it for future touch-ups.

Exterior Painting Services in Vancouver — Done Right the First Time
Exterior painting in Metro Vancouver is not the same as painting in a dry climate. Our wet winters, humid springs, and UV-heavy summers demand proper preparation, the right primers, and exterior-grade coatings that can handle constant moisture cycling. Crest Painting's exterior team knows exactly how to prepare and paint Vancouver homes for a finish that lasts 8–12 years — not 2–3.
Our Exterior Painting Process
- Inspection — we assess wood rot, failing caulk, peeling paint, mildew, and surface adhesion before touching a brush
- Power washing — all exterior surfaces are cleaned and dried completely
- Repairs — rot replacement, caulking gaps around windows/trim/soffits, filling cracks
- Priming — bare wood, repaired areas, and problem surfaces get oil or shellac-based primers

Exterior Painting FAQs
How long does exterior painting last in Vancouver?
A properly prepared and painted exterior should last 8–12 years in Metro Vancouver's climate. Cutting corners on prep drastically reduces lifespan.
Do you paint in the rain?
No. We never apply exterior paint when rain is expected within 24 hours. We monitor forecasts closely and reschedule if needed.
Can you paint stucco?
Yes — we repair cracks and apply elastomeric or masonry-specific coatings designed for stucco.
