Why exterior trim needs its own attention

Trim, fascia and soffits take more weather than any other part of your home's exterior. Fascia sits behind the eavestroughs, window sills and casings catch rain and snow, and south- and west-facing trim bakes in the sun. Peeling or cracked paint lets water into the wood, which leads to rot and costly carpentry. A fresh, well-prepared finish protects the wood and makes the whole house look sharp, whether you're repainting the entire exterior or just the trim.

What we paint

  • Window and door casings, sills and brick moulding
  • Wood and aluminum fascia, soffits and frieze boards
  • Corner boards, rake boards and gable trim
  • Porch posts, railings, columns and spindles
  • Shutters and decorative mouldings
  • Heritage gingerbread, brackets and scrollwork
  • Rotted trim boards, replaced before painting

How we prep and paint exterior trim

  1. Inspect. We check for peeling paint, soft or rotted wood, open joints and failing caulking, and list everything in your quote.
  2. Clean. Surfaces are washed to remove dirt, mildew and chalky residue so paint can bond.
  3. Scrape and sand. Loose and peeling paint is scraped off, and edges are sanded smooth so old paint lines don't show through.
  4. Repair and replace. Cracks and nail holes are filled, open joints are caulked to keep water out, and rotted trim boards are cut out and replaced with new boards.
  5. Prime. Bare wood and metal are spot-primed with the right bonding primer.
  6. Finish coats. We apply Sherwin-Williams Pro Industrial DTM or Duration, cutting clean lines against siding, brick and glass.

All prep, and any board replacement, is included in your written estimate.

Older homes and lead paint

Many older homes, including heritage homes in Niagara-on-the-Lake, may have lead-based paint under newer layers, especially on trim. We use lead-safe prep practices and follow applicable rules, keeping dust and paint chips contained and cleaning up thoroughly. If you know or suspect your home has lead paint, mention it when you book your estimate.

Heritage gingerbread and decorative woodwork in Niagara-on-the-Lake

Niagara-on-the-Lake and older Niagara neighbourhoods are full of homes with gingerbread trim, carved brackets, spindles and fretwork. This detail is what gives a heritage home its character, and it needs a patient hand. We scrape and sand by hand, brush paint into every curve, and take extra care with fragile or loose pieces. Rotted trim boards are replaced before painting, and any damaged decorative pieces are discussed and listed in your estimate. If your home is heritage-designated, please check with the Town about colour changes before you book.

Warranty and insurance

Exterior trim, fascia, soffit and gingerbread painting is covered by our 15-year warranty on siding and exterior painting, and the terms are written into your estimate. Painters Near Me carries WSIB coverage and $10 million liability insurance.

Exterior Trim, Fascia & Gingerbread Painting FAQs

Do you paint exterior trim, fascia and soffits?

Yes. We paint wood and aluminum trim, fascia boards, soffits, window and door casings, corner boards, frieze boards and porch details. Each surface is cleaned, scraped, sanded and primed, gaps are caulked, rotted boards are replaced when needed, and we finish with Sherwin-Williams Pro Industrial DTM or Duration.

How much does it cost to paint exterior trim and fascia in Niagara?

We quote every trim, fascia and soffit job at a free same-week estimate, because length, height, condition, board replacement, detail and the number of colours all change the price. Your written quote spells out the prep, any replacement boards and finish coats, plus HST. A 10% deposit books your job.

Can you paint heritage gingerbread trim in Niagara-on-the-Lake?

Yes. We paint gingerbread and decorative woodwork on heritage homes across Niagara, especially in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Details are hand-scraped, sanded and brushed with extra care. Older homes may have lead paint, so we use lead-safe prep practices. Rotted trim boards can be replaced before painting. If your home is heritage-designated, check with the Town about colour changes before you book.

Can you paint aluminum fascia and soffits?

Yes. Faded or chalky aluminum fascia, soffits and eavestrough trim can be painted instead of replaced. We wash and degrease the metal, scuff it lightly, and use a direct-to-metal coating such as Sherwin-Williams Pro Industrial DTM so the paint bonds properly. We keep soffit vents clear so your attic can still breathe.

Is exterior trim painting covered by your warranty?

Yes. Exterior trim, fascia, soffit and gingerbread painting is covered by our 15-year warranty on siding and exterior painting, and the terms are written into your estimate. The warranty covers our workmanship. If we find rotted trim boards or failing caulking, we replace the boards and re-caulk before painting, and that work is listed in your estimate.

When is the best time to paint exterior trim in Niagara?

Late spring through early fall is best, when wood is dry and temperatures stay above the paint maker's minimum, commonly around 10°C. Fall is a great window because paint dries evenly. Summer books up fast, so call early, or book your free estimate now and schedule the work for spring.
