THE HILL COUNTRY SUN
Boerne gets long, hot summers and strong afternoon sun, so paint on the south and west sides usually wears out first. If you're seeing two or more of these, it's a good time for a written estimate.
Text a Photo of Your Worst Wall ›The sides that take the afternoon sun fade first. A wall that's noticeably lighter than the one around the corner means the finish is wearing thin.
Run your hand across a sunny wall. A powdery film on your palm means the paint is breaking down and needs a proper wash and repaint.
Many Boerne homes pair limestone or brick with fiber-cement, stucco or wood. Each painted surface needs its own prep, and the stone stays masked and unpainted.
Where siding meets stone, trim, windows and doors, old caulk shrinks and splits in the heat. Replacing failed caulk at those joints is part of every repaint.
Trim, fascia, garage doors and front doors often fade before the siding does. In a whole-home repaint they're painted along with the body, so everything matches.
Paint lifting at corners, sills and board edges usually points to moisture in the joints or an earlier coat letting go. We note it on your estimate and prep it before painting.
OUR PROCESS
Every Boerne exterior repaint follows the same written standard, so you know exactly what's being done to your home.
We wash the exterior with low pressure and a mild cleaner to remove dirt, chalk and mildew so the new paint can bond.
Siding, trim and any stucco get time to dry fully after washing before primer or paint goes on.
Limestone, brick and other unpainted masonry are masked off, along with windows, walkways and fixtures. Plants next to the house are tied back and covered.
Loose paint is scraped and sanded, and failed caulk is replaced where siding meets stone, trim, windows and doors.
Bare wood, repaired spots and patched areas get a Sherwin-Williams® primer before the finish coats.
Siding, trim, fascia, soffits and doors in your scope get two finish coats of Sherwin-Williams® exterior paint.
What a standard repaint doesn't include
Trimming or removing shrubs, trees or vines, wood rot repair and heavy restoration aren't part of a standard repaint. If your home needs any of them, they're listed on your estimate as separate line items, or you can take care of them before we start.

BOERNE PRICING
Boerne-area projects use the same ranges by home size as our San Antonio exterior cost guide, with a $1,500 minimum project. These four things move the price the most.
Two-story walls, tall gables and sloped lots need more ladder work and setup than a one-story home on flat ground.
Homes with more painted siding take more paint and labor than mostly limestone or brick homes where only the trim, soffits and doors are painted.
Lots of windows, decorative trim, shutters and multiple rooflines add prep and brush time.
Keeping a similar color is the simplest repaint. A big change, especially dark to light, can take extra coverage.
WHERE WE WORK
We repaint homes throughout Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch, including Trails of Herff Ranch, Raintree Woods, Deer Meadow Estates, Champion Heights and Napa Oaks. If your HOA or the City of Boerne reviews exterior colors, confirm approval first and we'll schedule around it.
FROM A BOERNE HOMEOWNER
“Elite Finish Painters did a great job repainting the exterior of our home in Boerne. We have a mix of limestone, stucco, and siding, and the trim, garage door, and front door were starting to look pretty faded from the sun… The new paint made a huge difference.”
Justin G., Homeowner
BOERNE QUESTIONS
Straight answers to what Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch homeowners ask before repainting.
Request a Free Estimate ›Yes. Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch are part of our regular service area, and estimates there are free. We're set up for whole-home exterior repaints, with a $1,500 minimum project.
It depends mostly on home size, stories, how much of the house is painted siding versus stone, and how much prep the surfaces need. The instant estimator in our exterior painting cost guide gives you a planning range in about a minute, and your written estimate gives the exact price.
We paint the siding, trim and other painted surfaces around it and keep the stone masked and unpainted. If you're thinking about painting or limewashing the stone itself, ask us and we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit.
Many Boerne-area neighborhoods have HOAs with color rules. Properties in Boerne's historic district may also need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the city's Historic Landmark Commission before an exterior color change. Check with your HOA or the City of Boerne first; we'll provide the color and product details they ask for and schedule around the approval.
Most one-story homes take about 3–4 working days on site, two-story homes about 4–6, and large or detailed homes about 6–10, plus any weather days. You'll get a start-to-finish schedule with your proposal.
Our One-Year Limited Workmanship Warranty covers defects in our prep or application, under the full terms published at elitefinishpainters.com/warranty. That page lists what's covered, what isn't, and how to file a claim.
