Patio cover and exterior house painting in Euless, TX (76039)

South and central Euless developed mostly in the 1960s through the 1980s with single-story brick homes, painted wood trim and attached garages. Many have wood patio covers built later, along with privacy fences. North Euless, around Glade Road and the Bear Creek parks, grew in the 1990s and 2000s with two-story brick homes, fiber-cement siding and HOAs. Euless also has many apartment communities close to DFW Airport and SH-183. For paint, outdoor wood structures and trim wear fastest, and multifamily properties need durable coatings and organized scheduling.

Wood patio covers face sun from above and moisture from below, so paint often peels on the beams, rafter tails and post bases. We start by scraping loose paint, sanding edges smooth and checking each post at the base for rot. Soft wood is cut out and replaced or filled before painting.

Bare wood gets an exterior oil primer. Then we apply two coats of a 100% acrylic exterior paint in satin, brushing the rafter ends and joints where water collects. For a stained look, we use a solid or semi-solid stain instead. A typical 12 by 20 foot patio cover usually runs about $975 to $2,450, depending on height, condition and color changes.

• Post bases checked for rot

Euless has many apartment complexes and HOA communities that need breezeways, stair rails, doors and exterior siding repainted on a regular cycle. We work building by building, post notices in advance and keep walkways open for residents.

Steel stair rails get a wire-brush cleanup, rust-inhibiting primer and a direct-to-metal enamel. Siding gets a pressure wash, spot priming and two acrylic coats. For HOA entry monuments and fences, we match the community colors exactly.

In the newer neighborhoods near Glade Road, two-story homes often have fiber-cement siding on the upper level and brick below. We use extension ladders and sometimes lifts to reach high gables safely, and we protect landscaping with tarps.

Fiber cement holds paint well, but caulk at butt joints and around windows often fails after about ten years. We cut out old caulk, apply an elastomeric sealant and finish with two coats of acrylic.
