If you live in the Pacific Northwest, you already know what our weather does to houses. Rain, moss, damp winters, and the occasional blast of sun — it all takes a toll. That’s why hiring Expert Exterior Painters isn’t just about making your home look good, it’s about protecting it.
At CBS Professional Painters, we’ve painted hundreds of homes across Vancouver and Portland. We’ve seen siding starting to rot because paint was ignored, and we’ve seen cheap jobs peel after just a few years.
A good Exterior Painting job is more than color. It’s a shield. And when it’s done right, it can make your house look brand new while keeping it safe from damage.
Painting in this part of the country is different. Our weather doesn’t forgive shortcuts.
That’s why you need Expert Exterior Painters who understand this climate. It’s not the same as painting in Arizona or California — what works there won’t last here.
We’ve been called out to fix plenty of houses painted by the “low-bid guy.” They look fine at first, but within three years, the paint starts bubbling and peeling. By the time we get there, repairs cost more than the original paint job. That’s why hiring pros up front is actually cheaper in the long run.
So, what makes us different from a couple of guys with ladders and brushes? It’s the way we approach every single job.
We spend more time prepping than painting. That means:
Skipping this step is the reason most paint jobs fail.
We don’t buy bargain paint. We use paints made to fight mildew, resist UV rays, and stay flexible when temps change. They cost more, but they last longer.
Our team paints like your home is our own. Straight lines, even coats, no drips. We also protect plants, driveways, and windows so nothing else gets messy.
Being Expert Exterior Painters isn’t just about painting. It’s about showing up on time, keeping you updated, and cleaning up before we leave.
Paint is your first line of defense against rain, sun, and moss. A solid job keeps water out and siding strong.
Even if you don’t change colors, a fresh coat makes your house look cared for. And if you do change colors? It’s like a makeover for your whole property.
Realtors will tell you: a freshly painted home sells faster and for more. Buyers know it means less work for them.
Here’s how we handle an exterior job:
It’s simple, but it’s the right way.
Q: How often should I repaint my house?
Most homes here need it every 7–10 years. Wood siding often needs it sooner.
Q: Why not just DIY?
Painting a fence or shed is fine. But a whole house is different. It takes ladders, safety gear, and the right prep. A DIY job often doesn’t last long.
Q: Can I just paint over peeling paint?
Not if you want it to stick. Peeling spots have to be scraped and primed first.
Q: How much does it cost?
Most homes in Vancouver and Portland run between $2–$6 per square foot. Bigger homes and ones needing repairs cost more.
Q: When’s the best time to paint?
Late spring through early fall works best here — dry days and mild temps.
Q: Do you help with picking colors?
Yes. We help homeowners choose colors that match their style and still fit the neighborhood.
Being Expert Exterior Painters isn’t just about neat lines and fresh color. It’s about knowing the Northwest weather and protecting homes from it. Exterior Painting done right keeps water, moss, and UV rays from wrecking your siding. And the bonus? It makes your house look amazing.
At CBS Professional Painters, we treat every home like it’s our own. We prep right, use the right products, and take pride in leaving behind a job that lasts. That’s what makes our Exterior House Painting stand out.
