Exterior painting that protects the house
Imperial Finishes provides exterior painting in Overland Park, KS and across the Kansas City metro area. The service covers siding, trim and doors, and includes surface prep, minor repairs and durable exterior coatings.
Outside, paint is the first layer of protection against sun, rain and freeze-thaw cycles. Most of the work happens before the finish coat, because a paint job only lasts as long as the surface under it.

What exterior painting includes
Surface inspection
We check siding, trim, fascia and doors for peeling paint, failed caulk and soft wood.
Washing and scraping
Dirt, mildew and chalky residue are washed off. Loose and failed paint is scraped and sanded back to a sound edge.
Minor repairs
Small areas of damaged or rotted trim and siding are repaired or replaced, so new paint is not covering a problem.
Priming and caulking
Bare wood and repairs are primed, and joints around windows, doors and trim are caulked to keep water out.
Painting and finish work
Siding first, then trim, doors and accents, applied by brush, roller or sprayer depending on the surface.
Protection and cleanup
Windows, fixtures and plants are masked or covered, and the site is cleaned at the end.
Signs your exterior needs repainting
Exterior paint tells you when it is failing. Look for:
- Peeling, cracking, chipping or bubbling paint
- Color that has faded or feels chalky to the touch
- Bare or gray wood showing on trim, fascia or siding
- Cracked or missing caulk around windows and doors
- Soft spots in wood trim

Exterior Painting FAQ
When is the right time of year to paint a house exterior in Kansas City?
Exterior paint needs dry weather and moderate temperatures to cure properly. In the Kansas City area that generally means spring through fall, working around rain and cold snaps.
Do you remove peeling paint or paint over it?
Loose and failed paint is scraped and sanded before anything new goes on. Painting over peeling paint does not last, because the new coat can only hold as well as the layer under it.
Do you repair rotted wood before painting?
Yes, minor repairs are part of the service. If we find more extensive damage, we show you and explain the options first.
How much does exterior painting cost?
It depends on the size and height of the house, the type and condition of the siding, how much scraping and repair is needed, and how many colors are used. We look at the house and give you a free estimate.
