Exterior Painting in Cottleville, Missouri

Cottleville homes and this kind of project

Because Cottleville is made up of newer custom and semi-custom homes, the first thing we check for an exterior repaint here is trim ends and sills for rot, failed caulk and what the siding is made of.

The housing stock here: newer custom and semi-custom two-stories and one-and-a-half stories, villa communities, and a handful of older homes in the original village.

Fiber cement on newer homes mostly needs caulk renewal and sealed cut ends.

Lots, exteriors and approvals in Cottleville

Covered patios, pavilions and screened porches are the favored projects, often with stone, a fireplace and an outdoor kitchen rough-in. Newer subdivisions have active architectural review, and materials usually need to match the house.

Exteriors on Cottleville's newer homes are generally sound, though builder caulk fails early and unsealed fiber cement cuts take on water. Early maintenance, door upgrades and outdoor structures are the usual requests.

What is included

Our Cottleville exterior painting scope includes washing, rot repair and trim replacement, scraping, sanding, caulking, priming, two finish coats on siding and trim, doors and shutters, and protection of landscaping, windows and hardscape.

We take on exterior repaint work across Cottleville, from the Village at Twin Creeks area to neighborhoods along Highway N and Weiss Road and Old Town Cottleville.

What we watch for

Fiber cement siding on Cottleville homes from the 2000s often has failed caulk at butt joints and unpainted cut ends. We seal those properly, since that is where water enters the board.

Working on larger lots in recently built subdivisions, as we do in Cottleville, we plan access for painters and a carpenter for rot repair before the first delivery arrives.

Permits and approvals in Cottleville

In Cottleville, an exterior repaint is reviewed by the City of Cottleville. What follows is no permit, though HOA color approval may apply.

Exterior work in Cottleville can also involve active architectural committees that expect materials to match the house, and we put that package together for you.

Schedule and getting to you

On site, an exterior repaint in Cottleville generally runs three to seven working days.

Cottleville is down I-64 and across on Highway N, a bit over twenty minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.

What moves the price in Cottleville

We price exterior painting in Cottleville from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.

• Number of colors and the detail of the trim.
• Substrate type.
