"While I was quite impressed with Quinn, I was disappointed with our job. In our contract, it stated that vertical cracks and gaps would be caulked (see quote screenshot) and that all siding boards would be replaced that needed it. I pointed out the ones I knew about but was relying on them to tell me what boards needed to be replaced (see email screenshot). As you can see in the pictures from our chimney inspector today (3 weeks after painting), there was no caulk replaced at all and there are at least 8 more boards we found on our chimney that need to be replaced which have HUGE gaps from warping. When I asked Quinn about those particular boards that I could see from the ground, he said his crew told him they were fine. I'm highly disappointed and now have to hire someone else to fix these issues. I chose QGC as they gave me the best "feel" that things would be done correctly. They were my most expensive quote out of 6, I went with them based on what I thought would be done."

Culver's Painting LLC specializes in residential & commercial exterior and interior painting. We have built a reputation as the premier painting company in Southeastern Wisconsin. Our focus is on high quality painting with excellent & professional service

"This review is for est. no. 13342 and the work performed on July 1, 2025. Elliot Lund and Alex Biggan will furnish endless painting spin talk. What you will "not" get is the important surface preparation work specified in the estimate. You also will "not" get a good quality paint work. If you want a painting job that looks like it had been done by your neighbor's 10 year old son, then Culver's Painting is the company for you."

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

A single coat of primer is almost always sufficient. This is especially true if you’re painting over a smooth surface with minimal to no flaws.

You should always use a primer before painting over wallpaper to help the paint adhere correctly and get a good finish. Not all wallpaper can be painted over, so do a test patch in an inconspicuous area before painting an entire wall. If the primer and paint don’t adhere, you’ll need to remove the wallpaper, prime the wall, and then paint.

If you want your paint to have a smooth finish, the technique you use is very important. Keep your brush at a 90-degree angle while applying the paint and feather as you go. Between coats, sand the wall lightly using a very high grit sand sponge of at least 220 grit.

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.
