Exterior Residential Painting

Premier Residential Painting Company

Exterior House Painters of Albany

Albany’s homes showcase classic Bay Area architecture. From California bungalows to Craftsman cottages, traditional family homes to charming period properties, each home requires specialized knowledge and proper technique.

Our exterior painting process protects Albany homes from coastal fog, wind exposure, and seasonal weather changes while honoring their architectural character. We start with comprehensive surface prep: pressure washing, scraping failing paint, repairing wood rot and weather damage, proper caulking and sealing, and priming for long-term adhesion.

We use Benjamin Moore Regal and Sherwin-Williams Duration, premium coatings engineered to withstand the San Francisco Bay‘s coastal microclimates. Every Albany exterior project is backed by our 5-year warranty against peeling, bubbling, and cracking. From Solano Avenue to the Hill, we’ve protected Albany’s finest homes.
