What an Exterior Paint Job Costs and What Affects the Price
The company has not published a price for an exterior paint job,. The price depends on the size of the home, how much siding and trim the painting covers, and how much damage, fading and how many cracks the crew must repair first.

The part most painters skip is the part we’re known for
Prep, protection and paperwork. It is not glamorous, and it is the whole difference between a paint job that lasts and one that doesn’t.
Your home gets protected
We move everything to the center of the room, use casters so nothing scars the floor, and lay heavy canvas drop cloths, never plastic sheeting underfoot.
Lead-safe certified
We are a certified lead paint renovator and have completed the full certification coursework, which matters on almost every pre-1978 Long Island home.
One-year written warranty
Every paint job is covered by a one-year warranty against all paint failure. It is written down, and you get a copy.
Crews you can vet
Every employee is vigorously screened with multiple references. Most of our people have been with Walker Painting for 15 years.

WOW, thank you to Sal and his team. The professionalism and flexibility working with Sal was like no other. We would happily refer them to anyone looking for a team of caring people who do a tremendous job.
They are fully staffed, which is rare.
Paula’s exterior came with significant rotted wood. The crew handled the repairs without delay, and leaned on Dave and Sal to pick shades that stayed true to her home’s classic traditional style.
