What to Know Before Painting a Delta Home

More than half of Delta's homes are over 45 years old, and Tsawwassen gets less rain than most of Metro Vancouver. Here is what that means for your paint job.

Older homes often need more prep

Nearly half of Delta's homes were built between 1961 and 1980. A house that age has usually been painted several times, so it often needs more scraping, patching and priming, though a well-maintained home may need less. We check the condition at your estimate, and the prep is described in your written quote.

Moisture is the main enemy

Rain from fall through spring and damp mornings year-round mean moisture gets into bare wood and open joints, and mildew grows on shaded walls. Paint only goes onto clean, dry surfaces.

More dry painting days in Tsawwassen

Tsawwassen gets about 900 mm of rain a year, compared with about 1,190 mm at Vancouver airport and 1,560 mm in Surrey. Between April and October that means more dry days for exterior work, and fewer start dates pushed back for rain.

Trim and window sills go first

Paint usually fails first where water sits or soaks in: window sills, the ends and edges of trim boards, and the joints between them. Caulking gaps and spot-priming bare wood are part of the prep on every exterior quote.

The sunny side fades first

The south and west sides get the strongest sun, so paint there usually fades first. If your home gets a lot of sun, keep in mind that darker and brighter colours fade faster, and ask us at your estimate about a higher-end product.

Homes near the water

Salt from the sea settles mostly close to the shore, so a house in Beach Grove or along Boundary Bay wears differently from one inland. For homes right on the water, we usually recommend a higher-end product, and every exterior starts with a wash as part of the prep, so salt and grime come off before any paint goes on.

Why Delta Homeowners Choose Colour Craft

Experienced, Respectful Crews

The people in your home are experienced, respectful and accountable. They arrive on time, introduce themselves and take care with your property.

Fixed Written Price

Your quote is itemized and in writing before we start. The price only changes if the scope changes.

Thorough Prep, Built to Last

Our crews complete all surface preparation, including washing, scraping, sanding, caulking and priming, before the finish coats go on. We use premium products chosen for your surfaces, and we never paint in the rain or on wet surfaces.

Proactive Communication

We keep you updated from the day you book to the final walkthrough, with one main point of contact. You should never have to follow up to find out what is happening with your own project.

Clean, Organised Job Site

Your home stays functional while we work. Drop cloths go down before brushes come out, and cleanup happens at the end of every workday.

Local and Owner-Run

Richmond and Delta is where our crews work, week in and week out. The owner grew up here and sets the standard every crew works to. If something needs attention after the job, we are nearby.

Common Questions About Painting in Delta

How much does exterior painting cost in Delta?
Most exterior jobs in Delta fall between $3,500 and $15,000+. Smaller jobs, like simple trim work, a partial repaint, or a deck or fence, can cost less depending on the size, and large homes with a lot of detail can cost more. The price depends on the size of the home, how much trim and detail it has, how easy it is to reach, and how much prep the surfaces need. We provide free written estimates before any work begins.
How much does it cost to paint the outside of a whole house in Delta?
A full exterior repaint on a typical detached house in Delta usually runs $8,000 to $15,000. Smaller, simpler homes sit at the lower end, and larger homes with a lot of trim and detail can cost more. Where your home lands depends on its size, the amount of trim and detail, how easy it is to reach, and how much prep it needs. Your written quote shows the exact price for your house.
How often should you repaint the outside of a house?
Most homeowners repaint every 6 to 10 years. Where your home falls in that range depends on how well the surfaces were prepped last time, the quality of the paint, and how much sun and rain your walls get.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We carry $5 million liability insurance, WorkSafeBC coverage, and a municipal business licence. Ask to see the documents, from anyone you hire.
When is the best time to paint the outside of a Delta home?
Our exterior painting season runs April through October, and we schedule around the forecast. Tsawwassen gets less rain than most of Metro Vancouver, so jobs there are less likely to be moved for rain.
Do I need a permit to repaint a house in Delta?
No. The City of Delta treats painting as minor work that does not need a building permit. If your home is in one of Ladner's two heritage conservation areas, check with the City first, and homes on Tsawwassen First Nation land, such as Tsawwassen Shores, follow Tsawwassen First Nation rules.
How long does a painting job take?
Most jobs take one to five days on site, and larger homes can take up to two weeks. We give you an expected timeframe when you book, narrow it as your start gets closer, keep you updated along the way, and confirm your start day shortly before we begin.
What happens if you find rot or damaged wood?
If we find rot or damaged boards, we show you before any painting starts and refer you to a carpenter for the repair.
Do I need to pick colours before I book?
No, you don't need colours picked to book. There is no wrong way to pick a colour. Some clients arrive with a code, some take a photo of a house down the street, some want us to narrow it down with them. On request, we put real paint samples on your wall, so you see each colour in your own light before anything gets painted, and Sherwin-Williams' colour tools can help you narrow it down.
