ANSWERS TO FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT INTERIOR PAINTING

Exterior painting varies depending on the surfaces involved, such as siding, trim, windows, doors, decks, fences, stucco, and brick. At Aris LTD Painting, we handle all exterior surfaces including aluminum siding, vinyl siding, stucco, wood siding, brick staining, brick painting, front door refinishing, and deck and fence staining.

Below is a general price range based on typical Calgary projects:

Approximate pricing for exterior painting in Alberta
Small exterior job: $2,000 to $4,000 + GST
Medium exterior job: $4,000 to $8,000 + GST
Large exterior job: $8,000 to $10,000 + GST
XL exterior job: $12,000 to $30,000 + GST

For the most accurate estimate, we always recommend an on-site assessment, since every home has unique conditions such as height, accessibility, surface type, repairs, and prep work.

Yes. All Aris LTD Painting exterior quotes include premium paint, up to five colours, all required materials, full surface preparation, and complete labour. We use high-quality products from Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams to ensure long-lasting durability in Alberta’s climate.

We ask homeowners to move lightweight or personal outdoor items before the project begins to help speed up the process. If you have heavy or oversized items, our team can assist with repositioning them when needed. Just let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.

Project duration depends on the size of your home, weather conditions, and the amount of preparation required.

Here are general timelines:

Small exterior project: 1 to 2 business days
Medium exterior project: 2 to 4 business days
Large exterior project: 3 to 5 business days
XL exterior project: 1 to 2 business weeks

Most exterior painting projects are completed within 2 to 5 days, depending on weather. If you have urgent timing needs, we do offer fast-track scheduling when possible.

If you need help selecting colours, we can show you the most popular exterior palettes from Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams. For homeowners who want guidance, our Colour Consultation Service is available to help you pick colours that complement your siding, trim, landscaping, and neighbourhood aesthetic.

WHAT FACTORS COULD AFFECT THE COST OF EXTERIOR PAINTING

The price of exterior painting depends on several factors. Consider the following when planning your budget:

  • Home size: Larger homes require more paint and painter hours.

  • Accessibility: Hard to reach areas may need scaffolding or special equipment.

  • Preparation work: Removing plants, sanding, or isolating areas increases project time.

  • Season: Booking during off-peak periods may result in better pricing.

  • Number of colours and paint type: Using multiple colours, high gloss finishes, or specific premium paints increases costs. We use top-quality Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams paints for most projects.

  • Primer requirements: Lighter colours than previous paint may need an extra coat of primer.

  • Roof shape and architectural features: Steep peaks or intricate designs increase difficulty and time.

  • Project scope: Including trims, windows, and other details affects the total price.

  • Previous work quality: Poor previous painting may require extra prep or corrections, increasing costs.

  • Client preparation: Clearing clutter and cleaning surfaces can reduce painter time and potentially save costs.

After painting, we clean the site thoroughly and conduct a final walk-through with you. We do not consider the project complete until you are fully satisfied with our work. Your satisfaction is our top priority.

MORE FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much paint do I need for a 1,500 sq ft house exterior?
For a typical 1,500 sq ft exterior, you’ll usually need around five gallons of paint if one gallon covers about 300 sq ft. This estimate is for one coat. It’s always smart to have extra on hand in case you need touch-ups or the surface absorbs more paint. For primer, expect to use five to eight gallons, depending on surface condition and coverage listed on the can.
The best exterior paint is one that offers strong weather resistance, long-term durability, and UV protection. Look for high-quality acrylic latex exterior paints designed to withstand Calgary’s temperature changes. Choosing a premium-grade product reduces fading, peeling, and the need for frequent repainting.
Both methods work well, but each has advantages. Spraying delivers a smooth, even finish quickly but requires experience and careful masking. Rolling is more beginner-friendly, cost-effective, and offers excellent coverage, especially on rougher surfaces. Many professionals use a combination—spray for speed, roll to work the paint into the surface.

The ideal time to paint your home’s exterior is late spring, summer, or early fall, when temperatures are mild and humidity is low. These conditions help paint cure properly and ensure long-lasting results. Avoid extreme heat, cold, rain, or windy days to achieve the best finish.

Priming is highly recommended, especially if the existing paint is worn, you’re switching from a dark to a light colour, or painting bare surfaces. Primer improves adhesion, creates a uniform base, and helps your topcoat last longer. For colour changes, tinting the primer toward the final colour ensures better coverage and fewer coats.
