If your home is like most, painting is not merely an optional extra to keep your property looking good (though it is that) – painting is essential to protect your siding and trim from damage caused by the elements. Particularly in a wet climate like that of the Pacific Northwest, painting your home every 5-10 years is essential to protecting from rot and mold.

• Free estimate
• Pressure washing, scraping, caulking, and other surface prep
• As many coats of paint or stain as needed

Exterior Painters Who Take Care of You

We are a painting service who takes the last word of that title very seriously. You could say that we are a service which just happens to paint. We want to help you, and will go to great lengths – or heights in our case – to make sure that happens. We take the time to listen to your needs, and we have the experience to anticipate many of them (some you may not even be aware of). One of the greatest things about this job is when we get to hear the reaction of our customers to their “new” home. That’s what we do this for. If that’s the kind of experience you’d like to have with your exterior painter, please

Experienced Residential Interior Painter for Portland

If you’ve ever tried to paint the inside of your house, you know what a headache it can be. There are a million different variables that you don’t think about sometimes until they’re right in front of you, but you already have your brush in hand, dripping with paint, and you can’t deal with them the way you want to. It’s easy to make a mistake that takes a long time to fix. At some point, you may end up compromising on the quality of your work just to get it done, which you regret every time you see the flaws. Depending on the fumes, sometimes painting walls or ceilings can bring a literal headache, too. When you hire an experienced interior painter like Lenny Martin Painting to do the work for you, you avoid all this. We have been painting interiors in the Portland area for over two decades – you can trust that we know what we’re getting into.

Full-Service Interior Painting

Our goal is to take all the headache out of painting. To that end, besides the moving of furniture (but sometimes even including that), we take care of you completely. We bring in all our own materials and we take them out. The only thing we leave is the leftover paint. If you don’t have the best tools for the job, we’ve got that covered. If you’re not sure that you can live with having your house in a state while you paint, we do everything we can to let you live your life normally while we do our job. There’s no need to go through all the trouble. Let our Portland house painting services leave your room better than we found it.

Painting Knowledge for your Interior Project

Working with our years of experience and our relationships with people in the paint industry, we know what paints and finishes are best for different contexts, and can help you make the wisest choice for your space. We know which fixtures are better to remove and which are better to mask. We have the brushes and the skill to cut great lines, and the rollers to tackle those big walls without leaving irregularities in the finish. We take care of your stuff as if it were our own, covering anything at risk of being unintentionally painted. And we don’t leave until we know the job has been done right.

Our Portland House Painting Frequently Asked Questions

• What brand of paint do you use?
  • We typically use Miller brand paint on our projects. We have a great working relationship with Miller, and can get great deals on their products for our customers. However, our relationship with Miller is not exclusive. For instance, we also have a history with Sherwin-Williams, and use their excellent products from time-to-time or when a customer requests it. We can also get paint from Metro, or pretty much wherever our customers choose.
• How many people are on a painting crew?
  • Our crews vary depending on job size and availability, but they can be anywhere from 1-6 people. Each crew is managed by an experienced and trustworthy lead person who knows what needs to be done to take care of all the details that go into a painting project.
• About how long does it take to paint the exterior of a house?
  • From the day we show up with our equipment, normally about five days. The first day is devoted to surface prep. The next couple of days are spent sealing the house with caulking, as well as scraping off old and flaking paint, and repairing damaged siding and trim. At the same time, we are masking windows and doors (not enough to confine you in your house, don’t worry), and laying out drop cloths. Finally, we start putting paint up on the walls. Usually we will spray one side at a time and go around the whole house twice. Then we start with the trim work, while brushing or rolling any spots the sprayer couldn’t get. Then we put fixtures back up, clean up, and head out!
• Do you stain decks in Portland?
  • Absolutely. We will frequently do this as we are painting someone’s house, although the frequency at which a deck needs restaining is often different than that for repainting a house. Give us a call to learn more.
• How much does it cost to hire a professional painter in Portland?
  • That depends on a lot of factors: square footage of the house, hard-to-reach areas, height of the building, number of colors used, condition of the siding, and so on. Of course, that is speaking in terms of exteriors. When it comes to interiors, the height of your ceilings, number of rooms, and number of colors will all factor in. Your best bet is to call us to schedule a free in-person estimate.
