Exterior painting in Mississauga
Lince’s Painting paints home exteriors across Mississauga, from Lorne Park and Mineola to Erin Mills, Meadowvale and Streetsville. Stucco, brick, siding, garage doors, front doors and trim are washed, repaired and finished in two coats of weather-rated paint, between late spring and early fall.
Stucco and brick in Lorne Park and Mineola
The big, tree-covered lots in Lorne Park and Mineola mean shade, moisture off the lake, and mildew on north-facing walls. Stucco gets a mildewcide wash, hairline cracks are filled, and it's finished in a breathable masonry coating that lets moisture out instead of trapping it.
Brick is painted only when it makes sense, with breathable masonry-rated coatings and any loose mortar repaired first. If you'd like the brick to still show through, ask about limewash.
Aluminum and Hardie siding
Aluminum siding on 1970s and 1980s homes in Erin Mills, Meadowvale and Clarkson chalks and fades. We wash off the chalk, apply a bonding primer so the new coat grips, and finish in a premium exterior acrylic. Fibre-cement (Hardie) siding on newer homes is cleaned, caulked at the joints and repainted in a finish made for it.
Garage doors, front doors and trim
Steel garage doors fade in full sun and wood front doors weather at the bottom rail. We degloss, prime bare spots and recoat in a hard exterior enamel, with hardware masked or removed. Wood trim, soffits and fascia are scraped back to a sound edge, re-caulked and painted to match or refresh the colour scheme.
The exterior painting season
Exterior paint needs warm, dry days and nights that stay well above freezing to cure, so in Mississauga the season runs from about late May to early October. Spring and early summer book up first, so it helps to get your estimate in early. In condo townhouse complexes we work to the board's approved colours and send a certificate of insurance to the property manager.

Mississauga exterior painting questions
When is the best time to paint an exterior?+
Late spring through early fall, on dry days when temperatures stay comfortably above freezing day and night. In Mississauga that's roughly late May to early October. Booking your estimate in spring gives you the best choice of dates.
How long does exterior paint last?+
With proper prep and two coats of a quality exterior paint, most exteriors go many years before a repaint; how many depends on the surface and how much sun and weather it gets. South-facing walls, doors and horizontal trim wear fastest, and regular washing helps any finish last longer.
Do you power-wash first?+
Yes, every exterior is washed before we paint, and mildewed areas get a mildewcide. We use pressure suited to the surface, gentler on stucco and wood, and let everything dry fully before scraping, priming and painting.
