When you think about starting any home remodeling project, the first thing that might come to mind is, “How much is this going to cost me?” and “How can I pay for this?” Whether you’re replacing your entire home siding, windows, or just want to upgrade your garage floor with an industrial concrete coating, any construction or addition to your home can be a hefty investment.

If you’re thinking about painting your home’s exterior, you might be thinking, “Can I do this myself?” and “Do I really need to hire a professional for that?” Painting the exterior of your home is vastly different than painting the interior. While you can cover your interior walls with a simple primer and topcoat or two, painting the exterior requires much more preparation and skill.
