Exterior Painting

Exterior painting in Austin is a different challenge from interior. Direct sun degrades binders, summer heat opens caulk lines, and afternoon storms hit fresh paint. Brightline preps aggressively, paints to weather windows, and uses paint formulated for Texas exposure.

Every exterior project starts with a power-wash to remove dirt, mildew and chalking. Loose paint gets scraped and feathered with a sander; bare wood and patches get primed; every caulk line is inspected and replaced where it's failed (around windows, trim, siding seams). We use exterior-grade acrylic or hybrid alkyd paint with strong UV resistance. Two coats minimum. We paint to weather: no application above 90°F surface temp, no rain within 24 hours of application.

A well-prepped exterior repaint should hold 8–12 years in Austin. A skipped-prep job starts cracking in 2–3. We're transparent about which surfaces need replacing (rotten trim, failed siding boards) before paint — patching over those problems is a short-term fix.
