Thinking about repainting your home? Don’t let the cheapest bid make the decision for you.

It’s easy to focus on price when comparing painting quotes, but not all exterior paint jobs are created equal. In Central Oregon, where intense sun, cold winters, and dry air can destroy a weak paint job, the lowest price often leads to the shortest lifespan.

Your home deserves better. You deserve quality materials, solid prep work, skilled craftsmanship, and a respectful, reliable team. Before you hire the lowest bidder, here are a few things to think about that could save you time, money, and frustration.

1. Central Oregon’s Weather Calls for High Quality Paint

Between year-round sun, dry air, and freezing winters, paint in Central Oregon takes a beating. Low-cost painters often rely on bargain paint that fades or peels quickly. We use premium brands like Sherwin Williams, Miller Paint, Rodda Paint, and Benjamin Moore because homes here need paint built for the elements.

2. Prep Work Isn’t the Place to Cut Corners

Pressure washing, scraping loose paint, sealing cracks with 50-year caulk, and spot priming with Peel Bond aren’t extras. They are essential. Skipping prep steps might keep the bid low, but it sets the stage for peeling and flaking down the road.

3. Lap Lines Are a Real Risk in the Summer

When paint dries too fast in hot weather, lap lines and uneven coverage show up. If a crew doesn’t know how to pace the work or apply the product correctly, it shows. A quality painter knows how to manage Central Oregon’s summer conditions and still deliver a smooth, consistent finish.

4. Not All Crews Are Fully Insured

Some painters drop their prices by skipping out on business insurance. If someone gets hurt or damages your property, you could be left holding the bill. A professional crew should carry liability and workers’ comp coverage. It’s just part of doing business the right way.

5. A Low Bid Often Comes with Low Standards

We’ve seen it all—paint jobs peeling within one season, trim skipped entirely, overspray on windows and plants. A rock-bottom bid often means rushing, cheap materials, and inexperienced labor. That’s not a deal. That’s a redo waiting to happen.

6. Experience Gets You Quality and Efficiency

With over 40 years of painting experience, Wade knows how to get things done right and fast. There’s a difference between rushing a job and knowing exactly how to do it efficiently. We don’t waste your time or your money.

7. The Right Crew Respects You and Your Property

You deserve to feel comfortable with the people working around your home. That means no smoking in the bushes, no foul language, and absolutely no drugs or alcohol on the job. We show up clean, respectful, and ready to work. Professionalism isn’t optional. It’s part of the service.

Don’t settle for a bargain paint job that won’t last.

Your home deserves durable results, expert craftsmanship, and a crew you can trust. If you want an exterior paint job that holds up to Central Oregon’s climate and looks great for years, let’s talk.
