"Just had my garage painted by Aaron and John. Great job, scraped and sanded all of the bad paint and then hand primed and caulked. All paint was high grade Sherwin Williams. Aaron was easy to work with, both guys are Christians so no foul language, A pleasure to know."

Exterior Painting That Survives a Great Falls Winter
Paint fails on the plains for three reasons: loose paint underneath, bare wood that never got primed, and gaps that never got caulked. We fix all three before the color goes on.
An exterior job starts with a pressure wash and a walk around the house with a scraper. Anything peeling comes off, edges get feathered with a sander, bare wood and rusty metal get the right primer, and every gap at the trim and windows gets caulked. It's slow, and it's the reason the finish holds.
Then we spray and back-roll the siding in a top-grade Sherwin-Williams exterior acrylic and brush the trim by hand. Whether it's a peeling 1960s ranch near Malmstrom, a stucco two-story on the west side, or a garage that hasn't seen paint in twenty years, you get the same prep — and a written quote that spells out exactly what's included.
- Lap & board siding
- Stucco & fiber cement
- Fascia, soffits & trim

What Montana Weather Does
Exterior Damage We See on Great Falls Houses
Catch these early and it's a paint job. Wait, and it's siding replacement.
-
Peeling on the South and West Sides
The sun-facing walls take the worst UV and heat swing in Great Falls, so they fail first.
-
Chalky Powder When You Rub the Siding
The paint's binder has broken down. It needs washing and a bonding primer, not another coat.
-
Cracked Caulk at Windows and Trim
Freeze-thaw opens joints; water gets behind the paint and lifts it from underneath.
-
Gray, Bare Wood on Fascia and Rails
Once wood goes gray it needs sanding and primer before any paint will stick to it.
-
Rust Bleeding Through Metal Trim
Railings, gutters, and steel doors need rust treatment and a metal primer or it comes right back.

Painting on the High Plains
Why Exterior Paint Works Harder in Great Falls
Great Falls sits at 3,300 feet with some of the strongest wind and widest temperature swings in Montana. Paint choice and timing have to respect that.
Wind-Driven Grit
Constant wind sandblasts west-facing walls; a thicker acrylic film holds up far longer than thin coats.
High-Altitude UV
Thinner air means harsher sun — darker colors fade faster unless the paint line is rated for it.
Freeze-Thaw Cycling
Chinook winds swing temps 40 degrees in a day; flexible caulk and elastic paint keep joints sealed.
A Short Painting Window
Reliable warm nights run May to early October — we schedule exteriors early and watch the forecast.
Older Wood Siding Stock
Many Great Falls homes still wear original lap siding that needs real scraping and priming, not a quick spray.
The 10-Year vs. 25-Year Question
We quote both prep levels honestly so you can decide how long you want the job to last.

Roughly May through early October, when nights stay above about 40°F and the siding has time to cure before frost. We watch the forecast and won't paint into a storm or a cold snap. Book in spring — the calendar fills fast once the weather turns.
