Why Seattle Homes Need Specialized Exterior Painting
Seattle averages 152 rainy days per year (NOAA Climate Data).
Standard exterior paints break down in high-moisture climates. We use:
- 100% acrylic latex paints rated for Pacific Northwest conditions
- Mold and mildew-resistant formulas
- Elastomeric coatings for stucco and masonry
- Low-VOC options for eco-conscious homeowners
Proper surface preparation — pressure washing, sanding, priming, and caulking — extends paint life by 3 to 5 years compared to paint-only applications (per the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America, PDCA).

FAQs — Painting Company Seattle
100% acrylic latex paint with mold and mildew inhibitors performs best in Seattle's climate. We recommend Sherwin-Williams Duration or Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior for their moisture and UV resistance.
