The Project

Dennis’s home on Glacier View Drive in Garibaldi Highlands is a large, technically demanding property that required three full weeks to complete. The job was a full exterior colour change: every surface repainted using Sherwin-Williams Duration Exterior, one of the most durable exterior coatings available for the challenging Squamish climate.

The biggest challenge on this project was the ladder placements. The home’s terrain and multi-level profile created numerous difficult access situations throughout the three weeks. Our crew navigated every one of them safely and precisely, ensuring full coverage on all surfaces including the high shingle peaks and upper window frames.

The scope covered everything: siding, shingles, trim, gutters, belly boards, window frames, door frames, doors, and garage doors. At $21,000–$25,000, this is one of the larger exterior repaints we’ve completed in the Sea-to-Sky corridor, and the result reflects the level of care and technical skill that went into every detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Squamish's wet climate affect exterior paint?+
Squamish receives over 2,000mm of rainfall annually, one of the highest in BC. This means exterior paint must be applied to properly prepared, dry surfaces and must be a premium product with excellent moisture resistance. We use Sherwin-Williams Duration and SuperPaint lines specifically because of their advanced moisture protection. Prep work is non-negotiable in Squamish: any failing paint, gaps, or exposed wood will absorb water and cause the new coating to fail within a season.
What time of year is best to paint a home exterior in Squamish?+
Late spring through early fall (May through September) is the ideal window for exterior painting in Squamish. We need temperatures above 10°C and at least 48 hours of dry weather after application. July and August offer the most reliable conditions. We do not recommend exterior painting in November through March due to the high rainfall and temperature fluctuations that prevent proper curing.
How long will exterior paint last in the Sea-to-Sky corridor?+
With premium products and proper prep, exterior paint on a Squamish or Whistler home typically lasts 7–10 years. Homes with significant sun exposure on south-facing walls, or those with cedar siding that wasn't properly primed, may need attention at 6–8 years. Our 2-year workmanship warranty covers any adhesion or application failures within the first two years.
Do you work in Whistler, Pemberton, and Brackendale as well as Squamish?+
Yes, Colour Craft Painting's Sea-to-Sky franchise covers the entire corridor from Squamish through Brackendale, Garibaldi Highlands, Britannia Beach, Whistler, and Pemberton. We regularly work on homes throughout the Sea-to-Sky region and are familiar with the specific challenges each area presents.
How do you handle difficult access on multi-storey homes in Garibaldi Highlands?+
Many homes in Garibaldi Highlands and Brackendale are built on sloped terrain with challenging ladder placements. Our crew is trained and equipped for difficult access situations. We use 40-foot extension ladders, pump jacks, and where required, boom lifts. We assess every access challenge during the estimate and price accordingly so there are no surprises on the job.
