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 Rochester

  • 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 Rochester home was built around 1983, so original parts may be near the end of their life

Before you hire in Rochester

Mid-century and newer systems

Most homes here date from 1983 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.

Michigan basements

Freeze-thaw cycles and clay soils make foundation cracks and wet basements common across Metro Detroit. Foundation and sump pump checks belong on every spring list.

Permits: check with the Rochester building department before work starts.

Compare quotes

How to compare exterior painting quotes

  • Get three written quotes with the same surfaces, number of coats and paint line.
  • Ask exactly how they prep: washing, scraping, priming and caulking.
  • 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.

Exterior Painting in Rochester: FAQ

Late spring through early fall, on dry days within the temperature range printed on the paint can. Cold nights and dew can ruin fresh paint late in the season.
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.
