Sunnyside housing stock varies in age and benefits from careful surface preparation before any painting begins.
Denver-based crews reach the neighborhood easily, allowing flexible timing around seasonal weather patterns.
Below is what Sunnyside customers get when they book door painting with us — local dispatch, and the exact process we use across Colorado.
Denver's older housing stock in Capitol Hill, Baker and Five Points often features original wood doors that expand and contract with the semi-arid climate's wide temperature swings. Proper surface prep includes scraping loose paint, sanding to bare wood where needed, and applying oil-based primers that resist moisture from sudden afternoon thunderstorms. Skipping these steps leads to peeling within one season when humidity spikes after a storm followed by dry heat.
Exterior doors in neighborhoods like LoDo and RiNo face direct sun and wind exposure that accelerates fading on south-facing entries. We use acrylic latex paints formulated for UV resistance and apply them in thin coats during cooler morning hours before temperatures climb. Interior doors in Washington Park and Park Hill homes require different handling to avoid lap marks under artificial lighting common in these denser blocks.
