"I am so pleased with my experience with Hedlund Painting. I contacted Zakary to repair trim / banister damage from an anxious puppy, as well as paint my kitchen cabinets and walls. I could not be happier with the result. Micah, the project manager, was on-time, detail-oriented, and caring in my home. I really appreciated how he stayed on top of the project, and that the project completed on time. I also want to credit the MASTERFUL painter/carpenter, Jesus, who painted our kitchen to PERFECTION and MASTERFULLY repaired our trim / banisters. I could not be happier with the outcome. Jesus was meticulous, skilled, polite, on-time, and a general delight to have in our home. I could not recommend Zakary, Micah, and Jesus enough - I will definitely be reaching out to Hedlund again for future home projects."

We specialize in Customer satisfaction on their painting projects and our goal is to leave a happy client that can refer us and share their experience with us

"I’m a construction superintendent and use Quality First Painting on both commercial and residential jobs. Some of the best painters in the business and they pay attention to detail and do great prep. Prep is where corners are usually cut and end up with paint in places you don’t want. Higher recommend"

We specialize in full exterior paint jobs ONLY. Because we have chosen to focus on being the best at full exteriors, we really aren't geared up to do small jobs like trim only, just doors or a fence for example. We can do these as part of a larger job. See our website at osheaspainting.com for tips when getting bids Zero money down on most jobs. 35 years of painting experience and over 3,000 local homes painted. Call today and find out why 80% of customers I provide estimates to, go with us. I use my engineering background to provide both an analytical approach for generating your estimate and deciding on the appropriate materials for your job. I'll take time to walk around your house with you and explain what you need and why. I will also explain what to look for when comparing bids so you can make an educated decision on which painter is right for you. I offer a real 2 coat paint job using quality paints, which results in houses that still look good a decade later. I also provide several other options to give a variety of price points. My estimates are detailed, not just "paint house" Payment due upon substantial completion. I’m sorry we do not do interiors or service gig harbor, lake bay, fox island and other areas across the bridge.

"I received estimates from three companies and decided on O’Shea Painting because of the competitive price and positive impression during the estimate visit. The work was done in a very timely manner and we are very happy with the quality of the work. I’ve already recommended O’Shea to a friend who is looking for a painting contractor. I would most definitely recommend them and would use them again if the need arises."

FAQs for exterior painting projects in Tacoma, WA

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.
