Exterior Residential Painting

Premier Residential Painting Company

Exterior House Painters of Alameda

Alameda’s architectural treasures deserve expert care. From ornate Victorians to Classic Revival estates, Arts and Crafts homes to mid-century ranch houses, each property requires specialized knowledge and proper technique.

Our exterior painting process protects Alameda homes from salt air, fog, wind, and sun while preserving their historic charm. We start with thorough surface prep: pressure washing to remove salt buildup, scraping failing paint, repairing wood rot (common in Alameda’s coastal environment), and lead-safe practices required for pre-1978 construction.

We use Benjamin Moore Regal and Sherwin-Williams Duration, premium coatings specifically engineered to withstand coastal conditions. Every Alameda exterior project is backed by our 5-year warranty against peeling, bubbling, and cracking.

From Grand Street estates to residential side streets, we’ve protected Alameda’s finest homes.

Interior Commercial Painters

Commercial Painters in Alameda

Alameda’s thriving business community deserves professional service. From Park Street storefronts to Webster Street offices, South Shore Center retail to Bay Farm commercial spaces, your business needs painting contractors who respect deadlines and deliver quality.

We’ve served Alameda businesses since 2004 with the same reliability we bring to residential projects. We work around your operating hours, use commercial-grade coatings designed for high-traffic applications and coastal conditions, maintain clean and professional job sites, and communicate clearly throughout the process.

Whether you need a storefront refreshed, an office repainted, or a commercial property updated, we have the expertise and capacity to deliver on time and on budget.

Cabinet Painters in Alameda

Alameda kitchens blend period charm with modern functionality. But replacing cabinets can cost $20,000 to $50,000 or more. Professional cabinet painting delivers stunning transformations for a fraction of that investment.

We specialize in cabinet refinishing using Renner and Cabinet Coat, two of the most durable coatings available. Our process includes complete disassembly and labeling, professional degreasing and sanding, precision priming, and flawless finish coats applied in a controlled environment (never sprayed in place).

We’ve transformed kitchens throughout Alameda, from historic Victorians to contemporary renovations. We set honest expectations upfront because trust matters more than making a sale.

Kitchen Cabinets

These Are Some Of The Questions Your Alameda Neighbors Have Asked…

The best Alameda painters have proven local experience, proper licensing (CA Contractor #1085077), lead-safe certification for pre-1978 homes, and comprehensive warranties. At Arana Craftsman Painters, we’ve completed over 4,000 projects across Alameda since 2004, earned Nextdoor’s Neighborhood Favorite award four years running, and back every job with a 5-year warranty and yearly check-ins.

Interior painting in Alameda typically ranges from $4,000 to $15,000+ depending on size and condition. Exterior painting runs $8,000 to $30,000+ based on home size, architectural complexity, and necessary repairs (wood rot and lead abatement common in Alameda’s historic, coastal homes).

Cabinet painting averages $5,000 to $12,000. We provide free, itemized consults with transparent pricing.

Absolutely. In Alameda’s competitive real estate market, quality painting protects your investment and can return up to 107% ROI on interior work. Exterior painting is especially critical in Alameda’s coastal environment, preventing salt damage, wood rot, and moisture infiltration. With Alameda home values ranging from $900,000 to $2M+, protecting your island investment with professional painting is essential.

For exteriors, late spring through early fall (April to October) offers the most consistent weather. Alameda’s coastal location means we need to plan around fog and marine layer conditions. Interior painting works year-round. Book 4 to 6 weeks in advance during our busy summer season to secure your preferred start date.

Yes, if your Alameda home was built before 1978 (the majority were). California law requires lead-safe practices when disturbing painted surfaces in pre-1978 homes. At Arana Craftsman Painters, we’re fully lead-safe certified and follow all required protocols to protect your family and our crews during all painting projects on Alameda’s historic homes.

Remove small items, wall decorations, and breakables from rooms being painted. We handle everything else: covering floors and furniture, removing hardware and switch plates, patching holes, and preparing surfaces. We clean up daily and perform a comprehensive final walk-through before collecting payment, so you can inspect every detail.

Yes. We specialize in cabinet painting using Renner and Cabinet Coat, premium coatings that deliver factory-quality results at a fraction of replacement cost. We’ve transformed kitchens throughout Alameda’s diverse neighborhoods, from Gold Coast estates to West End bungalows. We completely disassemble, prep professionally, and finish properly for results that last.

Yes. While 90% of our work is residential, we handle commercial interior and exterior painting throughout Alameda. We work around your business hours, minimize disruption, and deliver the same meticulous craftsmanship we bring to high-end homes. From Park Street to Bay Farm Island, we have the capacity and experience to handle Alameda commercial projects.
