Are you looking to have the interior or exterior of your house painted?
Makus Painters is highly experienced in interior house painting and exterior house painting and has been servicing the Vancouver and surrounding area for decades
We know the processes to follow to provide a great painting finish. We are experienced in filling, gapping and sanding surfaces as well as sealing water marks and repairing cracks – we complete these tasks constantly when painting the interiors of our clients homes.
We have painted many period homes throughout lower mainland and fully understand the requirements when dealing with solid ceilings and walls as well as woodwork.
Often woodwork is painted in oil-based paint and sometimes in acrylic (water-based paint). We are now finding more and more of our clients prefer acrylic to avoid the fumes. The water based enamels we use now are very tough and according to the pant manufacturers dry as hard as oil-based enamels (once they have cured). Acrylic paint does tend to show more brush marks than oil-based – usually the finish is acceptable to most people and will meet the Standards i.e. the brushmarks won’t be visible when looking at the surface 1-1.5 metres away in natural light.
If you are sensitive to paint fumes or would prefer to not have any we can use water-based toxic-free paint. This may appeal to you particularly if you have health issues or young children. Often the cost isn’t any greater or is marginal.

Are you looking to have the exterior painting and interior painting of your house painted?
We are highly experienced house painters. We have painted thousands of exterior homes and we think this is because our clients want a paint job that is both beautiful and durable. There is little point paying for your house to be painted if it is going to peel within 12 months due to lack of preparation or the use of cheap paint and materials.
We paint both large and small homes throughout Vancouver and surrounding area, sometimes just the front facade or windows depending what needs to be painted. Every house we paint is different – some are very straightforward and some are more complex due to height, condition and power lines.
As we provide a 3-5year warranty against faulty workmanship you can be assured we are looking to provide a long and durable finish.
Usually we make a quote appointment with you where we assess the condition of your home and determine the correct process to follow to provide a long-term durable finish. We have to consider many things when painting the exterior of your home.
Painting weatherboard houses is different to painting rendered or painted brick homes. Timber always needs more preparation than mortar sometimes including oil-based primers and undercoats depending on the type or quality of the timber used or even stripping the paint particularly if old lead paint is starting to peel and crack.
We always test new pre-primed weatherboards prior to painting as the primer may need to be sanded off and a more suitable primer reapplied before we can paint. If we don’t do this the weatherboards may be peeling within 12 months.
Other houses have different issues such as lack of access or power lines very close to the building. There may be a situation where the render keeps cracking – this is common on garden walls where there is on-gong dampness and with 2-storey homes. Many homes have wrought iron fences and lacework and this needs to be dealt with differently to timber and render.

How We’ll Do It
As a trusted house painting contractor in your area, we’ll happily accommodate your needs at the schedule that’s best for you. Just give us a call, so that we can deploy a team to arrive at your property. We’ll discuss with you your preferences and the type of look you’d want to apply overall. From there, we can gather the needed painting materials and other relevant supplies. We’ll report back with them and prepare the surfaces to be tended to ensure a smooth finish and trouble-free work. Of course, we’ll also protect any surfaces you don’t want painted, also as a way to ensure precise edges. From then on, we’ll use controlled strokes and reliable techniques to apply the paint to your liking. Once we’re done, we can surely create a winning finish for your benefit.

We’re exterior house painting experts with years of experience painting stucco, brick, wood siding, vinyl siding, cedar shingles, wood trim, doors, decks and more. We also do wood and deck staining and refinishing. If you need exterior house painters, look no further than Makus Painting.
The secret to a long lasting exterior house painting job is the preparation. We pressure wash every exterior house painting project, scrape and sand chipping paint. Our painters caulk all of the gaps and cracks to properly seal and prevent moisture penetration and prime the bare wood surfaces before application of paint. It is imperative to follow this process (as needed) to preserve your home’s exterior in top-notch condition and avoid expensive repairs/maintenance costs. We’re so confident with our work that it’s backed by a written two-for year warranty.

INTERIOR HOUSE PAINTERS
Our professional crew will do a walkthrough to assess the project before preparing your house for painting. We cover your floors, protect your furniture, and fill holes or cracks in the walls if necessary (this includes drywall repair). We can help with wallpaper removal and window caulking as well.
If you have valuables or fragile items near the painting area, we recommend removing them from the room if possible. Remove any pictures or shelves from the walls before we get there. If you have pets, plan where you’ll keep them during the painting – we wouldn’t want any paw print trails!
As painting continues throughout the day, our site foreman will ensure the quality of work is excellent. We’ll complete a walkthrough with you while the paint is drying to make sure no touch-ups are required, then clean up fully. You’ll receive a follow-up call the next day to ensure the work, colors, and products met all of your expectations. It’ll be like we were never there – except you’ll have freshly painted walls to come home to!
We can coordinate a color consultation if desired.
Only top quality paint brands are used such as Sherwin Williams and Benjamin Moore.
Multiple crews and flexible scheduling meet your needs and timeline.
