Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Not waxing chalk-painted furnishings leaves their surfaces susceptible to moisture damage and color fading over time.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

You can calculate a painting charge by starting with the square footage of the area you painted. If you painted one room that’s 11x32 feet (132 square feet), charging $5 per square foot would get you $660 in labor costs (132x5). You may also choose to charge extra for intricate work (such as baseboards or crown molding) or painting jobs done in complex locations. Then, you’ll need to charge for the materials used, including primer and paint, and tools like brushes, drop cloths, and ladders.  

Yes, your HOA can make you paint your house. Be sure to read through your community guidelines to understand the rules around paint—some communities only accept certain colors for exterior paint. Talk to your HOA before painting your home to share your plans and make sure they fit within the bylaws.

Typically, professionals recommend two coats of paint for even coverage. However, you may be able to get away with one coat if you’re painting over a light color with a darker or similar-shade color. But if you’re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats.

If you’re going from a darker to a lighter color, like white to black, you may need up to three coats. Buying high-quality paint and using primer on the walls beforehand can save you the extra labor and cost that comes with adding more coats of paint.
