What a Full Exterior Repaint Involves and What Sets the Price
A full exterior repaint covers every painted surface outside the house. Body walls, trim, fascia, eaves, doors and garage doors. The work starts with a wash to pull off dirt, chalking and mildew, because nothing bonds to a dirty wall. Then the prep, which is where the job is won or lost. Failed exterior paint is a prep problem, not a paint problem. Scraping, sanding, patching, caulking and spot-priming all happen before the first finish coat. Stucco gets crack repair and texture matching first, so the patch disappears under the color instead of telegraphing through it. A single-story exterior runs three to five working days including prep.
Exterior painting runs $4 to $9 per square foot. A two-story home typically lands between $7,000 and $13,000. Square footage sets the floor. Condition decides where inside the range you land. A sound wall that just needs washing is quick to coat. A wall with cracked stucco, peeling paint and bare wood takes hours of prep before any color goes on, and that prep is labor, not material. Height and access push the number the same way. Two stories means staging and ladder time on every elevation, plus slower movement for the crew.
The mix of surfaces matters as much as the size. Trim, fascia and eaves are slow, detailed work. A plain stucco box with simple lines costs less per square foot than the same footprint with deep eaves and heavy woodwork. One more thing changes the scope on older homes. Anything built before 1978 falls under the EPA RRP rule, which means containment and HEPA cleanup by a certified contractor. That belongs on the quote as its own line item. Ask for a written, itemized breakdown before you compare bids. Two quotes that look thousands apart are usually just quoting different amounts of prep.
