Trim, Shutters, Fascia & Soffits Painting

Trim, shutters, fascia, and soffits are coated to protect vulnerable edges from moisture while keeping your home's lines clean and defined. These details are often the first to show wear. Our painters give them the same level of care as the main surfaces, using premium products that resist cracking and peeling.

Weathered garage doors are restored with finishes formulated to resist peeling, fading, and daily exposure while aligning visually with the surrounding exterior. We clean, sand, prime, and apply a durable topcoat that holds up to UV, moisture, and seasonal temperature changes.

What Makes an Exterior Paint Job Last

Three things decide how long an exterior paint job lasts: the prep, the paint, and the conditions it goes on in.

Prep comes first

Our crews complete all surface preparation, including washing, scraping, sanding, caulking and priming, before the finish coats go on. Chalky or loose paint has to come off first, because new paint won't bond to it. The prep is described in your written quote.

The right product for each surface

We use premium products chosen for your surfaces, matched to each surface type and exposure level. For homes right on the water, or a sunny home where paint fades fast, we usually recommend a higher-end product. The exact products for your home are listed in your written quote.

Painted in the right conditions

We only paint when the surfaces are dry and the temperature is right for the paint to cure, and never in the rain. We watch the forecast and move your dates if the weather turns, and we tell you the new ones.

What Delta Homeowners Say

On the price

“I was very impressed with the thoroughness of the assessment, the constant communication on the job (when they were starting/some rain delays/their follow up). … This company wasn’t the cheapest quote I got but the quality of the work (Mike also put 3 coats on a wall that had a lot of sun exposure) was great!”
Sheila Davis · Tsawwassen · August 2026

On the attention to detail

“Lots of attention to detail and diligence in their work. … made sure we were kept abreast of scheduling and made sure to go out of their way to help us find a particular paint colour we saw.”
Diane Manojlovic · Tsawwassen · August 2026

On the communication

“Great communication and updates throughout the project. The team did a careful and professional job with a few extras thrown in. All work completed on our agreed time line with no bad surprises.”
Kathy Dreisinger · Tsawwassen · May 2026

What to Know Before Painting the Outside of a Delta Home

A few things about Delta that affect when your exterior gets painted and what to check before you book.

Planning around the rain

Our exterior painting season runs April through October. Rain is a little more likely in April and October, so a job then is more likely to be moved for a wet day. We schedule around the forecast.

Pressure washing during water restrictions

Even under Stage 3 water restrictions, the City of Delta allows pressure washing to prepare a surface for painting. Every exterior starts with a wash as part of the prep, so salt and grime come off before any paint goes on.

Townhouses and strata homes

About one in five homes in Tsawwassen and in Ladner is a strata home. In a strata, exterior painting is usually decided by the strata council, so check your bylaws before you book. We paint strata exteriors as well, and every job starts with a written scope.

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.

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.

Homes on the slope

North Delta climbs about 100 metres from River Road by the Fraser up to the ridge. On a sloped lot, the downhill side of a house can stand taller and be harder to reach, and how easy a home is to reach is one of the things that sets the price. Your written quote shows the exact price for your house.

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 Exterior 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 long does it take to paint the outside of a house?
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.
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.
Can you paint my exterior in rainy weather?
We do not paint in the rain or when surfaces are wet, as moisture prevents proper adhesion and curing. We watch the forecast and move your dates if the weather turns, and we tell you the new ones. We use that time to prep, prime, and protect surfaces so we're ready to paint the moment conditions are right.
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.
Do you repair damaged wood or siding before painting?
Surface preparation includes patching, caulking gaps and spot-priming bare areas. We are painters first. If we find rot or damaged boards, we show you before any painting starts and refer you to a carpenter for the repair.
What exterior paint products do you use?
We use Sherwin-Williams most often, and we have relationships with all the main paint stores, so if you have a brand you prefer, we can use it. We match the right product to each surface type and exposure level, and the exact products for your home are listed in your written quote.
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.
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.
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.
