SFW Painting Specializes in Exterior Home Painting
The right paint scheme is crucial for your home’s value and appearance. It reflects your personality and taste, whether you prefer muted earth tones or bold, contrasting hues. At SFW Painting, we understand and respect your individuality.
Whether your tastes are more conservative or venture towards the wild side, you want the paint job on your home to be accomplished with skill and precision.

Paint Preparation
Firstly, everything we do beings with prep work to set the stage for your home to look fabulous after we’ve painted it. Secondly, our prep work entails pressure washing your entire home to remove and dust and dirt, grime, moss, or mildew. Lastly, after this, we scrape the exterior painted surfaces of your home, thoroughly removing any remaining detritus and creating a smooth surface on which to begin the actual painting.
To thoroughly protect your home from the weather and natural elements, we seal it with NP-150 SONOLASTIC caulking, which increases the longevity of your new paint finish.
Exterior Home Primer and Final Coat
The first coat of paint is a primer layer that serves to provide protection for your home and the increased durability of the final paint product. The primer also increases the adhesion of the final coat of paint. If your home would benefit from a special bonding primer, you’re in luck because we have those too!
After the prepping and the primer layer, your home will be ready for the final coat of paint. SFW Painting conducts the highest quality Hillsboro exterior painting using only the most reputable paints from Miller, Sherwin Williams, and Rodda.
Variations of Exterior Home Painting
We provide a variety of exterior home painting, including restoration painting, lead renovation and encapsulation, conventional residential coatings, and painting for historical homes. Whatever kind of painting you need, we’ve done it before and will do it for you in the most professional manner possible.
