Austin homes face a unique combination of intense UV exposure, dramatic temperature swings, and the occasional severe storm. Your exterior paint is the first line of defense against all of it. Glacier Home Exteriors uses Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior for Austin projects because it is specifically formulated to resist the fading, peeling, and blistering that Texas weather causes.
Duration Exterior is not a budget paint dressed up with good marketing. It is a PermaLast finish that bonds to surfaces at the molecular level, resisting moisture penetration and UV degradation better than standard acrylics. For Austin, where south-facing walls can hit surface temperatures above 160 degrees in summer, that kind of durability is not optional — it is necessary.
We apply two full coats on every project. The color richness and longevity difference between one coat and two is dramatic, and we will not cut that corner.
We paint homes across the greater Austin area, including South Congress, North Austin, Allandale, Crestview, Circle C, Avery Ranch, and the neighborhoods along MoPac and 183. We also serve Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, and Georgetown for homeowners who want the same quality service outside Austin city limits.
Austin has neighborhoods with strict HOA color palettes and historic preservation guidelines. We work within those frameworks and can help you find colors that satisfy the committee while giving your home a fresh, updated look.
We power wash, scrape, sand, fill cracks, repair damaged trim, and prime bare surfaces before any paint goes on. This is where most painting contractors cut corners, and it is exactly why their work peels within two years.
We mask and protect landscaping, patios, windows, and doors. At the end of each day, we clean up the work area. When the project is done, you will not find paint drips on your driveway or bushes.
Brush, roller, and spray techniques tailored to each surface. Two full coats of Duration Exterior for maximum durability and color depth.
Pricing depends on home size, number of stories, surface condition, and how many colors you choose. We provide detailed written estimates with no hidden charges. Most Austin homes fall between $4,000 and $12,000 for a full exterior repaint.
With proper prep and two-coat application, expect 8 to 12 years before a repaint is needed. South and west-facing walls may show wear slightly sooner due to direct sun exposure.
Yes. We use specialized masonry primers and elastomeric coatings where appropriate. Stucco requires different prep than wood or fiber cement, and we adjust our process accordingly.
