Exterior Painting
eugene, springfield & Surrounding areas
Foshay Contracting provides professional exterior painting services to homeowners, investors and commercial properties across Eugene, Springfield, and the surrounding areas. We pressure wash, scrape thoroughly , repair, and prime before we paint, and as a licensed general contractor we fix wood rot and failing siding instead of coating over it. Our weather is hard on exterior paint, so we confirm the siding and window trims are dry before we start, and treat moss build up, mold and mildew at the source. A full exterior repaint usually takes several days to about two weeks, depending on the size of the home, how much prep and repair it needs, and the weather. You get a free, itemized estimate before we start. Financing is available. Click below to get your started.

Power Washing & Surface Prep
Prep decides whether an exterior job lasts or peels. We pressure wash the whole exterior to strip dirt, chalking, and mildew, then scrape loose paint, sand rough and bare spots, and caulk gaps around windows, doors, and trim joints where water gets in. Bare wood, repairs, and any dry rot we cut out get spot-primed before the first coat. We also confirm the siding is dry before we paint, because siding in the local area holds moisture long after it looks dry, and painting over damp material is the top cause of early peeling.
Moss & Mildew Treatment
North-facing and shaded walls in the valley grow moss, mildew, and algae, and we treat it instead of painting over it. We kill the growth, clean it off, and address the moisture keeping it there, then use mildew-resistant coatings on outdoor materials that stay damp. Left alone, moss traps water against the siding and pushes fresh paint off from underneath.
Siding, Trim, Fascia & Soffits
We paint all exterior surfaces: siding, trim, fascia, soffits, eaves, doors, and garage doors. Fascia, soffits, and trim take the brunt of the weather and fail first, so they get extra attention on prep and sealing. We use quality acrylic exterior coatings suited to the westerm Oregon climate, in a low or satin sheen that resists mildew and holds color through repeated wet and dry cycles.
Dry Rot & Siding Repair
We repair dry rot and failing siding before we paint, not over it. As a licensed general contractor, we cut out and replace damaged materials, re-fasten loose siding and trim, and rebuild the surfaces to ensure long lasting durability. Painting over soft or rotted wood seals moisture in and fails fast. Fixing it first is what makes the finish hold and protects the structure underneath.
Decks & Fences
We clean, prep, and stain or seal decks and fences to protect materials from rain and UV. Bare and weathered wood soaks up moisture and can diminish quickly in the valley, so sealing it extends the life of the wood and keeps it from rotting. We match the product to the wood and how exposed it is.
Frequently Asked Questions About Home Remodeling
When is the best time to do exterior painting in Lane County?
June through September is the best window here, when you get dry, warm, stable weather and nights that don't dip too low. Springtime and early fall can work when the forecast cooperates. We avoid the wet, cold months because paint needs dry surfaces and mild temperatures to cure, and painting too late in the cool season causes streaking and weak adhesion.
How much does exterior painting cost?
It depends on the size of the home, the condition of the siding, how much prep and rot repair is needed, and the paint. A one-story home with sound siding and a two-story home needing scraping and wood repair make the costs vary. We give you a clear, itemized price after an in-person inspection of the exterior, so the number is based on your actual project scope.
Why is my exterior paint peeling or blistering?
Almost always because moisture got trapped underneath, either from painting over damp siding or from a leak or drainage problem behind the wall. Low quality paint, skipped priming, and no prep speed it up, so be weary of cheaper costs when getting estimates. We find and fix the moisture source, strip the failed paint back to a sound surface, prime, and professionally repaint to avoid it from happening again.
How long does exterior paint last in Lane County?
A quality exterior paint job lasts on average about five to ten years in Eugene, Springfield and surrounding area with updated panels, but less on wood siding or south and west-facing walls that take the most sun and weather. The same goes for shaded, damp walls that grow moss will also need attention sooner. Careful preparation and paint quality matter more than anything. Siding that's been dried, cleaned, and primed properly holds paint far longer.
