What Black Forest houses have to deal with

Wood and log homes

Black Forest has more wood-sided and log homes than almost anywhere else near Colorado Springs. Sun hitting through the trees dries and greys bare wood, and moisture from snow sits in shaded spots. A good stain job here starts with stripping and cleaning the old finish, so the new stain soaks into sound wood.

Living with wildfire risk

The 2013 Black Forest Fire destroyed hundreds of homes, and many properties here have been rebuilt or had mitigation work done since. The Colorado State Forest Service publishes guidance on how siding, decks, vents and the area right around a house affect how it fares in a fire. When trim, fascia or deck boards are being replaced anyway, it is a good moment to read it.

Big properties, big exteriors

Acreage homes often come with outbuildings, long fences and large decks as well as the house itself. It usually makes sense to plan the whole property at once - house, deck, fence and barn - so the colours and stains match and the prep is done in one visit.

What we do in Black Forest

Interior Painting — Whole-house and room-by-room repaints - walls, ceilings, trim, doors and vaulted spaces - with the furniture, floors and fixtures protected throughout.

Exterior Painting — Siding, trim, stucco, soffits, fascia, doors and garage doors - washed, repaired and repainted to stand up to Front Range sun, wind and hail.

Deck, Fence & Wood Staining — Decks, fences, railings, log and natural wood siding stripped, cleaned and re-stained - so the wood is protected, not just recoloured.

Drywall Patching & Texture Matching — Holes, cracks, water spots and old repairs patched and re-textured to match the wall - then painted, so nobody can find where the damage was.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal — Dated popcorn and acoustic ceilings scraped off, the surface repaired and re-textured or smoothed, and the ceiling painted - with the room sealed off first.

Wallpaper Removal & Hanging — Old wallpaper and border stripped, the adhesive washed off and the wall repaired and primed for paint - or new wallpaper hung straight and seamless.

Siding, Trim & Finish Carpentry — Rotted trim, fascia and siding boards replaced, doors and interior trim swapped out, and finish carpentry done - then painted to match in the same job.

Commercial Painting — Restaurants, offices, retail and condo communities - interior and exterior repaints scheduled around your hours so you stay open.

Every job starts with a free in-person estimate from Dave himself, with the time, the paint and labor, and a prep list in writing. He has been painting around Colorado Springs for more than 40 years.
