SFW Painting Specializes inv Exterior Home Painting
When it comes to having the exterior of your Milwaukie home repainted, nothing less than a phenomenal paint job will bring you satisfaction. Your home is likely your most significant investment, and it’s where you take refuge from the storm. So, you want your home to feel as comfortable as possible.
SFW Painting is staffed by Oregon natives who take pride in this state and are familiar with the intense weather that the exterior of your home must endure. As such, we know how to safeguard your home from the wind and the rain as well as invasive plant species and create a final Milwaukie exterior home paint product that will increase the durability, longevity and value of your home.
Interior Painting
The interior painting process must be minimally disruptive to you and your family. As your Milwaukie house painter, we will accommodate your busy schedule all year round—including the winter months.
Lead Paint Stabilization
Any home constructed before 1978 may have lead paint. In 1991 the EPA stated that lead-based paint is considered the “number one environmental threat to children’s health in the United States.”
Historic Home Restoration Contractor
Working on historical and vintage homes is a specialized skill set. Understanding the construction methods and materials used for these periods is crucial to these restorations. SFW Painting Contractor specializes in historical home restoration in Portland, Vancouver, and Seattle.
Fantastic Exterior Home Painting Begins with Prep Work
Every outstanding paint job we conduct begins with a thorough prep phase that prepares your home to be repainted. For years your home has borne the wear and tear of the weather as well as the growth of mildew and moss, and the buildup of natural elements that accumulate on the exterior surfaces. Before painting we need to wash and scrape all that unwanted detritus away to arrive at a “clean slate” upon which painting will be most effective.
After power spraying and scraping the entire exterior of your Milwaukie home, we fill in the unwanted crevices and cracks with NP-150 SONOLASTIC caulk to seal your home from inundation by moisture. Once your home is thoroughly cleaned and sealed, then the painting begins.
A Freshly Painted Home is a Delight to Behold
Imagine your home painted anew in the perfect colors of your choosing. What colors and color pairings would you choose? How your home looks affect how you feel, which in turn can improve the quality of your life. Having your home repainted is not only an occasional necessary form of maintenance, but it is also an opportunity to rejuvenate the space you live in.
Having the exterior of your Milwaukie home repainted can be a creative and inspiring process that brings you joy. We use only the finest paints from Sherwin Williams, Rodda, and Miller to make your home dreams come true.

No, We Can’t Just Paint Over The Rot
2 MIN READ
Painting over rot is a temporary fix that hides but doesn't solve the underlying issue. Rot, caused by prolonged moisture exposure, weakens wood and can lead to structural damage, health hazards, and increased repair costs. Proper treatment involves eliminating moisture sources, removing rotted wood, treating the area, and then repairing and painting the affected parts.
