Protect Your Siding and Trim Long Term

Professional residential exterior painting built for homes throughout Manhattan, Kansas.

Your home in Manhattan takes on wind, hail, sun, and temperature swings that fade paint and leave siding exposed to moisture. When the trim starts to crack or the color no longer looks even across the front of the house, exterior painting stops those problems from spreading into deeper damage that costs more to repair later.

Dunns Painting & Remodeling LLC preps every surface with power washing, scraping, and priming before applying weather-resistant coatings that hold up under Kansas climate conditions. The process includes siding, trim, doors, shutters, and any other exposed wood or composite material that needs coverage. Each coat goes on clean and dries properly so the finish stays consistent and the protection lasts.

How the Work Gets Planned and Completed

The first step is assessing your home in Manhattan to identify which surfaces need attention and what type of prep will be required. Power washing removes dirt, mildew, and loose paint, and then any damaged wood gets repaired or replaced before primer goes on. Weather-resistant coatings are selected based on the material being painted and the exposure it faces throughout the year.

Once the work is finished, you will see even coverage that brightens the exterior and seals gaps where moisture used to get in. The siding and trim no longer peel or crack, and the colors stay true without fading quickly under direct sunlight. Curb appeal improves immediately, and the structure underneath gets long-term protection from the elements.

Owner-operated oversight means quality control happens at every stage, from surface prep to final coat application. The project timeline is confirmed before work begins, and cleanup is included once painting is complete. Additional coats or touch-up work can be added depending on the condition of the existing finish and the level of exposure each surface receives.

You probably have a few things you want to know first

These are the questions homeowners usually ask before scheduling exterior painting work, especially when prep and weather play a role in how the project gets done.

What type of prep work is included before painting starts?
Power washing cleans the surface, then scraping and sanding remove loose or peeling paint. Any damaged wood is repaired or replaced, and primer is applied to bare or patched areas before the finish coats go on.
How long does exterior painting usually take to complete?
Most homes in Manhattan take between three and five days depending on size, surface condition, and weather. The timeline is confirmed during the walkthrough so you know what to expect before work begins.
What kind of paint holds up best in Kansas weather?
Weather-resistant coatings designed for temperature swings, moisture exposure, and UV protection work best here. The specific product is chosen based on your siding type and how much direct sun or wind the surface receives.
When is the best time of year to schedule this work?
Spring through fall offers the most consistent conditions for drying and curing. Painting should be avoided when temperatures drop below forty degrees or when rain is expected within twenty-four hours of application.
What surfaces can be painted during this service?
Siding, trim, doors, window frames, shutters, fascia, and any other exposed exterior wood or composite material can be included. The scope is reviewed during the estimate so every surface that needs coverage is accounted for.
