"I've been using Precision for around the last 2-3 years for our rental property business in Lenawee county. They have done at least 6 jobs for us, maybe more. Everything from small projects when we swapped interior doors at a property and needed them painted, to large projects like a whole house interior paint when a tenant moved out. They have even done some exterior work where we replaced some siding and needed color matching. They are always on time, willing to work with my requirements, have clean lines, and don't make a mess. As a business owner, I'm a little high maintenance and it is always refreshing to find companies that can meet our needs. We use different finishes depending on whether it a kitchen/bath vs bedrooms/common areas, and have specific color schemas we use across our rentals. Every time they deliver quality and we won't use anyone else."

In the home service industry, we noticed that there is a specialist for every aspect of your home. We know people do not like to call 5 or so different companies, organize 5 different bids, and then 5 different work schedules. We wanted to start a company that hired the best craftsmen and women in their different fields, and make sure your home is taken care of with one call. So whether you need a garden created, new deck or lawn mowed, a ceiling drywalled, kitchen remodeled or garage converted, even a room or whole house deep cleaned, we would be happy to do that for you.

"It went great, everything was done quickly and prosssionally! The estimate was insightful and transparent."

"Wolverine Contracting Design + Remodel provided us with exceptional craftsmanship for our renovation. They weren’t our cheapest option but their unique cost-plus process of contracting, clear & transparent labor rates and discounts saved us thousands on our projects. We have never seen a company operate in this manner, but it just made complete sense to us, and it works extremely well. Along the way we were a bit indecisive and made a few changes which added work to the original scope, increased our budget and timeline, however Douglas immediately shifted into another gear and was able to incorporate our changes within the original design. He is extremely honest, trustworthy and knowledgeable of his trade. His communication skills and integrity were second to none. I don’t know how he handles all the stress, but he makes it look easy. All team members and subcontractors were respectful of us and our home and a pleasure to work with as well. We highly recommend Wolverine Contracting and will be contacting them for any future projects."

Exterior home or structure paint or stains FAQs

Exterior paint costs around $20 to $80 per gallon, while interior paint costs around $20 to $30 per gallon. Outside paints tend to be pricier because they need to withstand the elements, such as abrasion, moisture, and color corrosion from the sun. In addition, painting the outside of a home is more costly at around $3,100, while painting a home interior costs around $2,000.

Use our paint calculator to determine the number of gallons of paint needed for your project. The average gallon of exterior paint covers 350 square feet in a single coat. So, a 1,500-square-foot home with a paintable area of 1,100 square feet requires seven gallons of paint for a two-coat application.

When determining how much extra paint to purchase and whether to apply primer, clear planning is essential. Rounding up your paint requirements ensures complete coverage and prevents gaps during the application process. Extra paint acts as a safeguard against miscalculations, while proper primer application—decided by the paint type and exterior condition—secures adhesion and long-lasting protection.

When determining how often to repaint your home’s exterior, careful evaluation of both the current paint condition and building materials is crucial. Exterior paint is engineered to last five to 10 years. Aluminum surfaces require repainting every five years, wood requires a new coat every three to seven years, and painted brick needs refreshing every 15 to 20 years. Visible chipping or cracking signals the need for prompt repainting to sustain protection and curb appeal.

When deciding whether to roll or spray exterior house paint, the method chosen directly influences the overall finish and work efficiency. Rolling delivers precision and control for tight, detailed areas, whereas spraying achieves a smooth, even coat on large surfaces with high efficiency. The equipment used and labor intensity are key considerations; homeowners must choose the technique that best suits their project scale and quality requirements.

When evaluating the duration of an exterior painting project, a professional team completes an average-sized house within three to four days. Larger or more complex projects—such as three-story homes or residences with extensive architectural details—require five to six days due to increased surface area and additional setup. A contractor provides an exact timeline after reviewing all project specifics.
