The job

What exterior painting usually includes

  • A written scope listing siding, trim, doors, porches and garage
  • Washing to remove dirt and mildew before any scraping
  • Scraping and feathering loose or peeling paint
  • Minor wood repair or filler, with rotted parts flagged for replacement
  • Primer on bare wood and patched areas
  • Caulking at trim joints, windows and doors
  • Two finish coats of exterior-grade paint
  • Lead-safe ground covers and cleanup on pre-1978 homes
Price

What drives the cost of exterior painting in Marathon Township

  • Size of the house, number of stories and access for ladders or lifts
  • Condition of the existing paint and how much scraping it needs
  • Rotted wood that needs a carpenter before painting
  • Number of colors and amount of detailed trim
  • Siding type: wood, aluminum, stucco or brick
  • Paint line and whether a full primer coat is needed
  • Lead-safe containment on homes built before 1978
  • The age of the home: the typical Marathon Township home was built around 1976, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Marathon Township

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Marathon Township was built around 1976. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Pre-war construction

19% of homes predate 1940. Expect plaster walls, balloon framing and possible asbestos in old pipe wrap or floor tile; test before demolition with a licensed asbestos contractor.

Permits: check with the Marathon Township building department before work starts.

How to compare exterior painting quotes

  • For a pre-1978 home, verify the EPA firm certification and ask about ground covers and cleanup.
  • Ask for proof of insurance, especially for two-story work on ladders or lifts.
  • Confirm how wood rot is found, priced and repaired before paint goes on.

It depends on prep, paint quality and sun exposure. South and west walls usually fail first, and good prep matters more than the brand.
Aluminum siding paints well after cleaning and priming. Vinyl can be painted with vinyl-safe colors, but very dark shades can cause warping.
