THE DIFFERENCE IS IN THE DETAILS

See the work.
Understand the transformation.

These are Carroll Painting projects, photographed before, during and after the work. Look beyond the color change: the condition of the siding, the preparation and the finish all help tell the story.

01

NORTH COLORADO SPRINGS · SIDING & TRIM

A fresh palette, built on thorough preparation.

Front elevation: original before-and-after comparison.
Before and after rear siding at the Herbal Wash exterior project
Rear elevation: the same coordinated palette carries around the home.

The starting point

Peeling siding edges and separating wood grain called for substantial preparation before the new finish.

The work

Our team used spray-and-backroll application and two full coats of Sherwin-Williams Emerald Exterior. Our complimentary color consultant helped select the palette.

The palette

Body: Herbal Wash SW 7739
Garage & accent: Grassland SW 6163
Trim: Alabaster SW 7008
Front door: Rainstorm SW 6230

For your home: Coordinate siding, trim, garage doors and the front door together. A complete palette makes every elevation feel intentional.

02

WEATHERED EXTERIOR · PRIMING & CAULKING

Carriage Stone & Greek Villa. A considered refresh.

Front elevation: renewed siding and contrasting trim.

Rear elevation: weathered surfaces before preparation and repainting.

The starting point

Years without repainting left weathered siding and sun-exposed surfaces in need of attention.

The work

Exposed and porous areas were primed, joints and seams were caulked, and the exterior received two coats of Sherwin-Williams SuperPaint Exterior Satin.

The palette

Body: Carriage Stone
Trim: Greek Villa

The contrast defines windows, rooflines and the front entrance.

For your home: Ask what preparation is included in the estimate. Primer and joint preparation deserve as much attention as the finish color.

03 · COLOR TRANSFORMATION

A bold blue exterior.

Original project comparison: a blue body color gives the exterior a different character.

This project shows how a new body color changes the way trim, rooflines and architectural details read together. Bring examples you love to your estimate so we can discuss a direction for your home.

04 · SIDING & GARAGE

From preparation to a crisp finish.

White siding and brown accents create a clear contrast around the garage and entry. The paired photos document preparation and the completed exterior from a similar viewpoint.

BEFORE THE FINISH COAT

The most important work
often happens first.

A color change is easy to see. Understanding the surface underneath is just as important. Here are real examples from our project records.

Look at the surface

Peeling edges, exposed wood and failing coatings help define the preparation scope. The estimate should address the condition of your home.

Discuss repairs early

Painting and repair are different parts of the plan. We can discuss stucco repair or siding replacement where those services are needed.

Match the finish to the job

Our featured projects used different Sherwin-Williams products. The coating, sheen and application approach should be specified for your surfaces and scope.

Before & After

PLAN WITH CONFIDENCE

Exterior painting questions, answered.

What is included in an exterior painting estimate?

The scope depends on your home. Discuss the surfaces to be painted, cleaning and preparation, repairs, priming, coating products, colors and access. Ask us to clarify what is included before scheduling.

Can you help me choose exterior colors?

Yes. Color consultation helped create the Herbal Wash, Grassland, Alabaster and Rainstorm palette featured on this page. Ask about our complimentary color consultation when planning your project.

Which exterior paints do you use?

The projects shown here include Sherwin-Williams Emerald Exterior and SuperPaint Exterior Satin. We discuss the product and application plan for your specific surfaces; the same coating is not automatically the right choice for every home.

Can you repair stucco or damaged siding before painting?

We offer stucco painting and repair as well as siding replacement. During the estimate, we can review visible damage and discuss which repairs belong in your project scope.

How long will my exterior painting project take?

Timing depends on the size of the home, preparation and repair work, access and suitable weather. We discuss the expected schedule for your scope. Ask us how weather and drying time may affect your planned dates.

How much does exterior painting cost in Colorado Springs?

An accurate price requires a project-specific estimate. Surface area, condition, repairs, height and access, and the selected coating system all influence the scope. Request a free estimate so we can review your home.
