"I had high hopes for Somerset painting. Their contract implies a detail oriented company who believes that preparation is key, and to that end, promise preparation and "hand sanding all woodwork being painted...all glossy surfaces must be scuffed to insure a bond...," "removing hardware including striker plates, door handles, and electrical covers," "drop ceiling fixtures," "repair severe dings in painted doors, trim and base using Bondo," "caulk all your seams as necessary." The quotes are directly from the contract we agreed to. This was a job that had two different crews assigned; and both crews made the same mistakes. Somerset painting relies on the use of subcontractors. There was no QA person actually overseeing the job, and that is were things went very wrong. My sense was that both sets of subcontractors were more interested in getting the job done quickly rather than thoroughly. The lack of "eyes on the job" means the painters do want they want, how they want, without oversight. Somerset painting relies on return visits for "touch ups" rather than getting it right the first time. I appreciate the owner inspecting and apologizing for the work. But, there is a disconnect between the "management" and the actual painters to the point that the front office offered to send back out the team of painters responsible for most of my grief to fix errors. So, what actually happened...If you walked into my house you would say it looked great; nice neutral color palate, freshly painted trim. But, the devil is in the details. It took their QA guy, three or four visits, and additional days of work to re-sand, repaint, and re-caulk. My previously painted white alkyl trim was covered with white latex, without any prep despite the fact that I asked for oil based trim paint. There are areas I can scrape the latex off with my finger nail. I basically got a white wash job. I am, two months after the completion of the job, finding door and window casings not completely painted, drips on walls and six panel doors. I have spent that last two months removing, cleaning, and replacing painted hinges, door knobs and striker plates. I haven't even started my floors yet. During the job, either my husband or I were present. I did, in real time, ask for remedial action from the painters if something was not done right. But, I was put in the uncomfortable position of trying to manage their work; around my going to and coming from my own work. Lastly, the most obvious faux pas: Paint and energy drink spills that required carpet replacement. Paint cans left on carpeting, open, without so much as a drop cloth underneath at the end of the day. A toilet plugged up. Bathroom sinks used for paint brush rinse out. Paint spots on the decking going into and out of my house; paint spilled in the garage where empty cans of paint were placed."

When you hire Woodbrook, you can expect professional results from an experienced and knowledgeable staff. We only use the highest quality paints and materials to ensure that you get the best value possible for your money. SERVICES OFFERED: Residential/Commercial - Interior & Exterior Painting, Caulking, Light Drywall Installation & Patching.

Light Carpentry Like Baseboard, Door Trim, Window Trim, Crown Molding & Chair-Rail Installation. Deck Repair and Staining. Exterior Wood Replacement & Powerwashing.

"I hired Woodbrook to repaint my home and repair, seal and stain my deck. I should mention I interviewed 4 different companies I selected after extensive checking online for the best companies in the Plymouth area. From start to finish the company performed extremely well in every aspect of the process. Ryan, the company contact who came out to review and estimate the job, took the time to really look at the details of what was needed. For example, we had some discussion around the best way to paint around the gutters, after which we agreed they would wrap the gutters to keep paint off of them. The company provided a long list of references, of which I actually called 6 and discussed their experiences with the company. All gave glowing reports, and from their comments I could tell they were not plants for the company. Ryan and the crew were always on time and very businesslike. The painting crew chief had 14 years of experience with the company and it showed. They power cleaned the house one day, and did the painting, deck repair, and staining/sealing in two. There were no surprises with additional charges. The estimate was exactly what I paid. I do not enjoy dealing with the skilled trades because so many are less than great, and sometimes worse. Woodbrook is a refreshing difference from those kinds of service providers."

We’re not your typical paint company. At 360° Painting of Oakland County, we follow a detailed process for every project that ensures we know exactly what you want and we do the work to make it happen. Whether we’re painting a statement wall in your living room or refreshing the exterior of your business, we take care to get things right.

"For the money I spent to have them paint my house, and the quality of their work I’d say 2 stars. I am finding more and more spots where they have paint drips, chunks, over spray and spots where they look like they were running out of paint. Most of these spots you can’t see unless you have the lighting just right. Which thankfully you can’t see otherwise. But moving furniture and moving my floor lamps is how I noticed these issues 6 months after the fact. As a new homeowner you live and learn…I will make sure to use a fine toothed comb on anyone I hire from now on."

Exterior painting services FAQs

You should paint your home exterior every five to 10 years, on average. Climate and surroundings can affect how well paint holds up. Wood siding will likely need a fresh coat of paint every three to seven years. Paint on brick tends to last about eight to 17 years, on average.

Calculate the square footage of the area you want to paint. Divide the square footage by 350 (the average square footage a gallon of paint covers). Multiply the number of gallons you need by two, as you’ll likely be applying two coats of paint. For a more accurate estimate, subtract the square footage of the windows and doors from the initial square footage total. It’s a good idea to plan for an extra gallon of paint to make sure you have enough to finish the job.

To calculate the square footage of a home exterior, painters multiply the length of the wall by the height of the wall to be painted. Then they add the total square footage for all of the walls to be painted. To calculate the price, they multiply the total square footage by their cost per square foot to prep and paint. Additional costs may factor in such as repairs, additional trim, and walls higher than the first story.

The cost to paint the exterior of a house ranges from $1,900 to $4,500 or about $1.50 to $4 per square foot, depending on the size, height, and complexity of the home layout. Other cost factors include your location, the type of siding (e.g., wood, aluminum, brick, stucco, etc.), and the kind of paint (e.g. oil-based, latex, acrylic, etc.). Painting the trim a different color or painting intricately designed trim can also increase the cost.

You should apply at least two coats of paint when painting the exterior of your house. Two coats of paint provides better durability and more even coverage than just one coat.
