Once paint lifts, UV and rain work directly on the trim, fascia, and siding. One season of exposure starts rot that no repaint can fix.
Trim & fascia carpentry: $1,500–$4,000Cracked caulk at window and door perimeters wicks water into the wall — the leak nobody finds until the drywall stains.
Water intrusion repair: $500–$2,000 per openingA repaint at year 8 is wash, prep, and paint. The same house at year 14 needs carpentry, wood filler, and twice the prep hours — and you pay for all of it.
Deferred repaint premium: 1.5–2× the costChalky, faded, or peeling paint is the first thing every buyer and appraiser sees — and it discounts the whole house, not just the walls.
Typical resale discount: $5,000–$10,000Typical ranges, not quotes. The free walkthrough tells you — with dated photos — whether your exterior needs paint, carpentry, or nothing yet.
Wash, scrape, sand, fill, caulk, and prime before a finish coat ever goes on. Paint that peels in two years almost always failed at prep — so that's where we spend the time.
Quality paints and primers matched to each surface — exterior-grade acrylics that flex with the wood and washable interior finishes — applied at the right spread rate, not stretched thin.
The same licensed, insured company that did your roof and siding paints the trim and fascia, so the whole exterior finishes together and there's one number to call.
Siding, trim, soffit and fascia, doors, shutters, and porches — color-matched, cut clean, and back-rolled or sprayed for an even, durable finish that stands up to DMV sun and humidity.
Walls, ceilings, and trim with the same prep standards — surfaces protected, edges cut sharp, low-VOC paints available, and a tidy site at the end of every day.
Deck and fence staining or sealing, cabinet and front-door refinishing, and touch-ups that tie new siding or storm repairs back into the rest of the house.
| Line item | The 2-year paint job | The UD 10-year paint job |
|---|---|---|
| Wash & scrape | Quick rinse, paint over failures | Pressure wash, scrape and sand to sound surface |
| Repairs & caulk | Skipped — "it's just paint" | Wood filled or replaced, every joint re-caulked |
| Primer | None, or spot-primed at best | Full prime on bare and repaired wood |
| Finish coats | One coat, stretched thin | Two coats of exterior-grade acrylic at spec spread rate |
| After it's done | Peeling by year two, nobody answers | Written workmanship warranty, one number to call |
The price gap between the two is smaller than you'd think. The lifespan gap is 5×.
| Sheen | Where it belongs | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Flat / matte | Ceilings, low-traffic walls, older exterior siding | Hides surface imperfections best; the forgiving choice on walls that have lived a little |
| Eggshell | Living rooms, bedrooms, hallways | The interior workhorse — soft glow, wipeable, doesn't telegraph roller marks |
| Satin | Kitchens, baths, kids' rooms, most exterior body coats | Stands up to scrubbing and weather; sheds rain and dirt outside |
| Semi-gloss | Trim, doors, shutters, railings | Crisp, durable edges that take handling — and make the body color look sharper by contrast |
We spec the sheen room by room and surface by surface on your written estimate — so "paint the house" turns into a plan you can hold us to.
Actual United Developers projects — not stock photos.
If a recent storm crossed your county, stained fascia and damaged trim are often part of the picture — and that's a different process. We keep all storm and insurance guidance on one page. See how storm restoration works →
A 10-year paint job is mostly decided before the first finish coat. Here's the order we work in — and why the middle steps are the ones you're actually paying for.
A specialist checks every elevation and room in scope — paint condition, caulk lines, wood soundness — and documents it with dated photos. Failing trim that needs carpentry, not paint, gets called out now instead of discovered mid-job.
Day 1 · FreeColor consultation with real swatches on your actual walls, sheens specified surface by surface, and a written estimate that itemizes prep, primer, and coats — so you can compare it honestly against any other bid. $0-down financing is available on larger exterior projects.
In writingLandscaping, floors, and furniture masked and covered; rotted or split wood filled or replaced; every joint re-caulked. This is the step cheap bids skip — and the reason their work peels in two seasons.
The hidden 60%Exteriors pressure-washed and scraped to a sound surface, interiors sanded and spot-repaired, then full primer on bare and repaired wood — the layer that decides whether the finish coats bond for a decade or lift in a year.
Prep-first, alwaysTwo coats at the specified spread rate — not one stretched thin — edges cut sharp, site cleaned every day and spotless at the end. Then you walk every surface with the crew lead, and the written workmanship warranty lands in your hand.
One number to callFamily-owned and operating across Maryland since 2005. Every contract carries our license numbers, every crew is fully insured, and every job is backed in writing.
Cracked caulk lines, lifting paint edges, and chalking surfaces are exactly what an annual exterior inspection catches — while the fix is still a brush, not a saw. Our free walkthrough covers paint, trim, and caulk along with the roof and siding. It's a $400 service. You pay nothing, and you keep the dated photo report either way.
Book My Free Inspection →Yes — walls, ceilings, and trim, with the same prep standards as exterior work.
If hail or debris damaged it, often yes — it's a known scope line item and we document it during storm inspections. We provide the documentation your insurer needs and meet your adjuster on site.
Premium-grade paints and primers matched to the surface, applied over proper prep. Our work is backed by a written workmanship warranty so there's one number to call if anything needs touching up.
Most whole-home exterior repaints run $4,000–$10,000 depending on size, height, and how much prep and carpentry the surfaces need. Interior rooms typically run $400–$1,000 each. Your free walkthrough produces an exact itemized price in writing.
With real prep — wash, scrape, prime, caulk, two coats — expect 7–10 years in the DMV sun and humidity. Skipped prep is why cheap jobs peel in two.
Yes — painting crews run alongside our roofing and siding teams across Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Potomac, Rockville, Silver Spring, and Northern Virginia. Being a Montgomery County exterior contractor first means the same company stands behind the paint, the trim carpentry under it, and the roofline above it.
It matters more than the color. Flat hides imperfections but scuffs; eggshell is the interior workhorse; satin takes scrubbing and weather; semi-gloss armors trim and doors. The sheen table above shows where each belongs, and your written estimate specs it surface by surface so nothing is left to the painter's mood.
That's actually our favorite way to do it — trim and fascia get painted right after the roofline is rebuilt, so the whole exterior finishes as one project with one schedule and one warranty conversation. Start with the 60-second instant quote on the roof side, and the free walkthrough scopes the paint with it — $0-down financing can cover the combined project.
Within 24 hours, anywhere in Maryland. You keep the photo report either way.
