Climate considerations
• Humid summers demand primers that block tannin bleed and mildew
• Freeze-thaw cycles can open exterior joints; flexible caulk is essential
• High UV index calls for fade-resistant pigments to keep colors vibrant
Local architectural styles
• Craftsman bungalows benefit from two-tone trim to highlight rafters
• Mid-century ranch homes often need low-sheen finishes to mask surface imperfections
• New infill builds lean toward bold accent colors that meet HOA guidelines
• Surface prep and repair: 15 – 25 percent of total
• Primer and topcoat materials: 20 – 30 percent
• Finish carpentry for new trim: 25 – 35 percent
• Labor and clean-up: 20 – 30 percent
Because CountBricks tracks Kansas City supplier pricing daily, your estimate reflects today’s actual numbers rather than last quarter’s averages.
• Plan color palettes with sunlight in mind—north-facing walls appear 5 – 10 percent darker
• Upgrade to enamel on interior trim for smoother wipe-downs and fewer touch-ups
• Ask CountBricks to include a spray-and-back-roll option; it speeds production by 30 percent
• Schedule exterior work between April and October to meet manufacturer temperature specs
• Add door hardware replacement while trim is off for a complete visual refresh
