Exterior House Painting in New Westminster, BC
Weather-rated exteriors built for the West Coast climate — serving New Westminster and all of Metro Vancouver.
New Westminster's trusted choice for exterior house painting
Vancouver's rain, salt air, UV and freeze-thaw cycles are brutal on exterior paint. Our exterior systems are spec'd for the climate and applied by crews who understand local substrates.
Every exterior project starts with a thorough inspection — rot, failing caulking, peeling paint, mildew. We power wash, scrape and sand to a sound edge, replace failed caulking, spot-prime bare wood and stains, and re-seal every joint. Premium 100% acrylic exterior coatings are sprayed and back-rolled at the correct mil thickness for maximum adhesion. The result is a home that looks new from the curb and stays that way for 8–10 years or more.
New Westminster's beautiful Queen's Park heritage homes and modern Quay condos all benefit from 4C Painters Vancouver' careful prep and finish work.
Homeowners near Queen's Park and across West End call us for exterior house painting because we know how New Westminster's Metro Vancouver climate, building stock and access conditions affect the finish. From the first walkthrough to final cleanup, every step is tailored to New Westminster — not a generic Metro Vancouver script.

May through September is the prime exterior window in New Westminster. Outside of that we still paint on dry-enough days, but we monitor humidity and dew point closely and won't push a coat onto damp New Westminster siding.
