Exterior painting is more than a fresh coat of paint. The prep work, the coating selection, the attention to detail on trim and fascia, these are the things that separate a paint job that holds up for years from one that starts peeling and fading in months.
Mike Ross has been painting exteriors across Auburn, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln and Grass Valley since 2006. In that time he has painted over 100 homes and knows exactly what Placer and Nevada County weather demands from an exterior coating. Hot summers, wet winters and intense UV exposure mean the wrong paint fails fast.

Mike provides free written estimates so you know exactly what exterior painting will cost before any work begins.
Exterior painting costs in Auburn, CA depend on the size of the home, the number of stories, the condition of the existing paint, the type of siding, and how much prep work is required before painting begins. Homes that need scraping, sanding, caulking, wood repair, priming, or pressure washing will usually cost more than homes that are already in good condition.
Yes. Mike serves Auburn, Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, Loomis, Grass Valley, Nevada City, Penn Valley and Colfax. If you are in Placer or Nevada County, call (916) 532-2033 to confirm your area is covered.
Yes. Pressure washing is part of Mike’s standard exterior prep process. Every exterior job starts with a full pressure wash of the surfaces being painted. Proper prep is what makes an exterior paint job last.
Yes. Vinyl siding can be painted with the right product and proper prep. Mike uses exterior coatings formulated for vinyl that bond correctly and flex with the siding rather than cracking or peeling. Many Auburn homeowners paint vinyl siding to update the color without replacing it.
Yes. Aluminum siding takes paint well when it is properly cleaned, scuffed and primed first. Mike knows the prep process for aluminum and uses coatings that hold up long term.
Most exterior paint jobs take two to four days depending on the size of the home and the amount of prep work needed. Homes with a lot of peeling paint or wood damage take longer. Mike gives you a realistic timeline during the estimate.
A properly prepped and painted exterior should last seven to ten years in the Auburn and Sierra foothills climate. The key is thorough prep before the paint goes on. Mike does not skip prep steps, which is why his work holds up.
Yes. Garage doors, front doors and all exterior doors are part of the job. Mike paints them with the right primer and topcoat for the surface type so the finish looks clean and holds up to daily use and weather.
Typically one to two weeks, though spring and summer book up faster. Call Mike at (916) 532-2033 or fill out the form on this page and he will get back to you within 24 hours.
