Paint fails fast in Aurora, and the reason is geography. The city sprawls east across Arapahoe, Adams, and a sliver of Douglas County, which puts most neighborhoods out on open ground with little tree cover to slow the weather down. That exposure shows up on your walls: the relentless high-altitude sun bakes south- and west-facing elevations until the color chalks and fades years early, while the dry-line winds rolling off the eastern plains drive grit into the finish and Front Range hail leaves scuffs and chips that crack the door for moisture. From the newer stucco-and-siding builds around Saddle Rock and Southshore to the established homes in Original Aurora, an exterior coat out here simply works harder than the brochure ever promised.

CR Custom Exteriors is a family-owned, licensed and insured contractor based just up the road in Erie, with more than ten years repainting homes built for exactly these conditions. We don't just roll on a fresh color, we do the full prep that makes paint last in Aurora: power wash, scrape, sand, caulk, and prime before a single finish coat goes on, so the coating actually bonds instead of peeling off the next hot summer. From the rooftops of Tollgate Crossing and Murphy Creek to the streets of Meadowood, we apply UV-resistant, high-altitude-rated coatings to siding, trim, stucco, and accents at manufacturer spec, paired with a hands-on color consultation so the result holds up and looks right against the wide-open Aurora sky.

Coatings rated for high-altitude sun

Aurora's open ground and thin-air UV chalk ordinary paint fast. We use UV-resistant, high-altitude-rated coatings on south- and west-facing walls so your color holds instead of fading a few summers in.

Full prep, not just a fresh coat

Lasting paint is all in the prep. Every Aurora repaint gets a power wash, scrape, sand, caulk, and prime before the finish goes on, so the coating bonds tight against hail scuffs, wind-driven grit, and freeze-thaw swings.

Family-owned and fully backed

Licensed, insured, and rated 4.9 stars across 150+ Google reviews, we handle siding, trim, stucco, and accents at manufacturer spec and walk you through a color consultation before any work begins.

Common questions

Why does exterior paint fade so fast on Aurora homes?
Aurora sits out on open ground with little tree cover, so the intense high-altitude sun hits walls full force, especially south- and west-facing elevations. That UV chalks and fades ordinary paint years early, which is why we use UV-resistant, high-altitude-rated coatings and prep every surface thoroughly so the color lasts through Aurora's sun, wind, and hail.
What does CR's exterior paint prep actually include in Aurora?
Every Aurora repaint starts with full prep before any finish coat: we power wash the surface, scrape and sand failing paint, caulk gaps and seams, and prime bare and hail-scuffed spots. On homes around Saddle Rock or Murphy Creek that prep is what lets the coating bond and survive the temperature swings out here, instead of peeling the next hot summer.
How long does an exterior repaint take on an Aurora home?
Most Aurora exterior repaints run a few days to about a week, depending on the size of the home, how much siding, stucco, and trim is involved, and how much prep or hail repair the surfaces need. Weather plays a role too, since the dry-line winds and pop-up storms off the eastern plains can shift the schedule, and we plan the manufacturer-spec application around clear, workable conditions.
