When can you paint exteriors in Ottawa?

Exterior painting needs above-freezing temperatures and low humidity for proper curing, so we schedule exteriors in the warmer months — typically late spring through early fall. We'll advise the best window for your project.

How long does an exterior paint job last?

With proper prep and weather-rated coatings, a quality exterior finish typically lasts 7–10 years depending on sun exposure and substrate. Thorough prep is the single biggest factor — and it's where we don't cut corners.

Do you repair damaged wood or stucco before painting?

Yes. Surface preparation and repairs are part of our exterior service. We replace or repair rotted wood, patch stucco, and prime bare substrate before any topcoat goes on.

Can you paint my front door and shutters?

Absolutely. Front doors and shutters are a high-impact, lower-cost refresh that can transform curb appeal. We use durable, weather-rated enamels for a crisp, long-lasting finish.

What's covered by your warranty?

Every exterior project includes a written warranty. If you notice any issues with the finish in the warranty window, we return and fix them at no cost.

What It Is

What exterior painting solves

Your home's exterior takes the full force of every Ottawa season — freeze-thaw cycles, UV, wind, and rain. Ayre Coat applies weather-rated coatings engineered for Canadian conditions, so your finish flexes with the temperature instead of cracking. From siding and brick to front doors and fences, we prep thoroughly and paint to protect and elevate your home's curb appeal.

Common problems we fix

Faded, peeling, or blistering exterior paint leaving siding and trim exposed to the elements
A front door or shutters that look tired and drag down the whole facade
Wooden fences or decks greying and splitting from UV and moisture
Metal railings or fixtures rusting and flaking
Stucco or brick that's stained, patchy, or overdue for a protective coating

Our Process

How we approach exterior painting

A clear, repeatable process tailored to this service — so you know what's happening at every step.

Assessment & Quote

We inspect every exterior surface, note any repairs needed, and deliver an itemized complimentary quote — surfaces, prep, products, and a schedule timed for proper curing.

Prep & Repairs

We pressure-wash, scrape, sand, caulk gaps, and repair damaged wood or stucco. Loose paint is removed and bare substrate is primed — the step that decides how long the finish lasts.

Weather-Rated Application

We apply elastomeric and acrylic coatings rated for Canadian freeze-thaw cycles, with the right primer and sheen for each substrate — siding, brick, stucco, metal, or wood.

Walk-Through & Warranty

We confirm every surface with you, clean up all materials, and hand over your written warranty. Your home's exterior is protected and looking its best.

Materials & Options

The right products for this work

We choose materials for the specific demands of this service — not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Weather-Rated Exterior Coatings

Elastomeric and acrylic coatings rated for Canadian freeze-thaw cycles, with proper primers for wood, stucco, aluminum, and brick — flexible finishes that move with the temperature.

Metal & Railing Primers

Rust-inhibiting primers and durable topcoats for iron, steel, and aluminum railings and fixtures so they resist corrosion and stay sharp.

Deck & Fence Stains

Penetrating and film-forming stains and sealers that protect outdoor wood from UV and moisture while bringing out the natural grain.

Pricing Honesty

How pricing works

No fake fixed numbers — just a transparent explanation of how your quote is built.

How exterior pricing works

Exterior projects are priced by surface area, substrate, and the amount of prep and repair required. Your complimentary quote separates prep, repairs, and coating so nothing is buried.

What changes the price

Substrate condition, the extent of peeling or damage, height and access (scaffolding or lift), and the number of distinct surfaces (siding, trim, doors, railings) all shape the final number.

Seasonal timing

Exterior painting needs stable, above-freezing temperatures to cure properly, so we schedule exteriors in the warmer months. We'll always advise the right window for your project — no rushed winter coats.
