Question 1

How much does house painting cost in Dallas?

Accepted Answer

Interior painting in Dallas averages $2–$4/sq ft. A typical 2,000 sq ft home's interior costs $3,000–$7,000. Exterior painting runs $2,500–$8,000 depending on home size, stories, and surface prep needed.

Question 2

How often should I repaint my Dallas home exterior?

Accepted Answer

Dallas's intense sun and weather cycles mean exteriors typically need repainting every 5–7 years. South-facing walls may need attention sooner. Quality paint and proper prep can extend this to 8–10 years.

Question 3

What's the best time to paint exteriors in Dallas?

Accepted Answer

Spring (March–May) and fall (September–November) are ideal for exterior painting in Dallas. Avoid peak summer when temperatures above 95°F can cause paint to dry too quickly, and avoid rainy periods for proper curing.

Question 4

Should I paint or stain my Dallas home's exterior?

Accepted Answer

For wood siding and fences in Dallas, stain penetrates and protects better in our climate. Paint provides more color options and coverage but may peel in the Texas heat. Many Dallas homeowners use paint on siding and stain on fences and decks.

Question 5

How do I choose a painter in Dallas?

Accepted Answer

Get 2–3 detailed quotes that specify paint brand/type, number of coats, and prep work included. Check reviews, ask for references from Dallas projects, and verify insurance. Professional painters should offer at least a 2-year warranty.
