Painting in Greeley, CO

Both. Exterior repaints are the most common request — usually after a re-side, a re-roof, or an insurance restoration, when the new work makes the old paint look tired. But Red Hawk also paints interiors: whole-home repaints, single rooms, ceilings, trim and doors. Interior work includes drop-cloth coverage of all furniture, low-VOC paints, and a same-day touch-up pass before the crew leaves. Interior projects are also the easiest to schedule in winter, when exterior painting isn't possible in Colorado.

Yes, and in most interior projects it's the step that decides whether the finished wall looks right. Red Hawk patches holes, cracks and water-damage cutouts, then matches the existing texture — orange peel, knockdown or smooth — so the repair disappears under the finish rather than showing as a flat spot in raking light. Texture matching is done before primer, and the patched area is primed separately so the paint sheen stays even across old and new surface.

Yes. Front doors, garage doors, interior doors and trim get surface prep, primer, and a two-coat finish in your choice of color and sheen, on steel, fiberglass or wood. Metal railings, gates and fences get rust treatment first, then primer and a two-coat finish in either oil or a rust-inhibitive acrylic — galvanized, aluminum and steel all need slightly different prep, and skipping that step is why most repainted railings fail within a season.

Greeley sits on the eastern plains where supercell thunderstorms frequently mature after rolling off the foothills, and Weld County is one of the most hail-prone counties in the country. The ground record for Greeley shows 5 documented hail days within 10 miles of city center between 2021 and 2026, all confirmed by NWS storm spotters, the largest a 2.0-inch measurement on June 16, 2025 (10 ground reports). The flat terrain offers no orographic disruption, so storm cores hold together longer. Red Hawk pulls NOAA Storm Prediction Center data for every Greeley estimate.

Greeley asphalt shingle replacements run $15,000 to $25,000, with most homes in West Greeley and Promontory landing between $12,000 and $17,000 for Class 4 impact-resistant installs. The high hail frequency makes Class 4 the default specification for most Greeley insurance-funded jobs. Red Hawk provides free written estimates with photo documentation. Insurance-funded replacements after a hail claim typically cost only the deductible.

The City of Greeley requires a building permit for every tear-off and reroof, issued through Community Development at 1100 10th St. Permit fees run $80–$220 depending on valuation. Weld County (for unincorporated areas around Greeley) issues separate permits with similar code requirements. Red Hawk pulls all permits and handles the post-install inspection. Code includes ice-and-water shield, synthetic underlayment, and drip-edge metal.
