Painting in Loveland, 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.

Yes — Loveland sits squarely in the I-25 hail corridor, and the ground record confirms it: 5 documented hail days within 10 miles of the city between 2021 and 2026, all confirmed by NWS storm spotters, the largest a 1.75-inch measurement on May 28, 2024 (3 ground reports), with additional confirmed days in 2023 and 2026.

The City of Loveland requires a building permit for every tear-off and reroof, issued through Development Services at 410 E 5th St. Permit fees run $80–$200 depending on roof valuation. Code includes ice-and-water shield extending 24 inches inside the heated wall, synthetic underlayment, and proper drip-edge. Red Hawk pulls all permits and schedules the final inspection — homeowners never file paperwork. Unincorporated Larimer County around Loveland uses a slightly different fee schedule.
