Reilly’s Handyman Services are a third-generation, father-and-son, family-owned business. We registered our business with Wake County in 2004, have city licenses and have $1M of project insurance. We understand how difficult it can be to find a contractor that provides you with high-quality craftsmanship and affordable prices without sacrificing quality. That’s why we provide our customers with honest, professional and reliable services for their home improvement and renovation needs. We have developed a reputation for handling any size project efficiently and quickly for residential properties. Our goals over the years have always been to provide customers with exceptional services focused on their individual needs. 10 employees. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. Family owned.

"I would not consider having anyone other than Reilly’s Handyman Services. I had them replace and upgrade my deck 8 years ago and was amazed with the craftsmanship. 8 years later it looks 8 months old, not 8 years. So, of course when I wanted my whole house upgraded with a new roof, porch railing, siding, gutters and shutters, I went with Norm and Ryan Reilly. The workmanship and attention to detail is superb. Could not be more pleased!"

"Over the course of the last year Grady Jones Paint has worked for me on (3) different occasions to repaint our home interior. The scope of work included scraping the popcorn ceilings, flattening them and then repainting them; repainting all of the walls; painting our cabinetry; and, finally, staining the exposed woodwork on our deck. Clee was very responsive and visited the project every time his workers were on site. Tim and Eddie made up the crew who did the work. They were amicable, professional, courteous and did a GREAT job. I plan to use Grady Jones Paint for any future work and recommend them to anyone in need of a paint contractor."

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.
