30+ years painting exteriors across the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver, from Burnaby Mountain to the SkyTrain towers of Metrotown.
Full prep, durable finishes, 3-year warranty.
Protect - Beautify - Restore
These are the three main reasons we paint our homes. Not only is the exterior the first thing we see when we get home, it’s the first line of defense in protecting what is, for most of us, a major investment. After 30+ years painting exteriors, we have the expertise to properly prep and paint all types of exterior substrates.

House Painters & Painting Services In Burnaby, BC
Burnaby runs from the high-rise density around Metrotown and Brentwood to the older, lower-rise streets of Capitol Hill and Burnaby Heights, and we paint exteriors across all of it — single-family homes, rowhouses, and strata townhome complexes alike. That range means matching prep and coatings to everything from a 1970s-80s bungalow to a newer build near Government Road.

Timing Exterior Painting Around Burnaby's Weather and Strata Rules
Burnaby sits on high ground between Vancouver and the Fraser River, and that terrain creates real differences in exposure across the city. Homes on Burnaby Mountain and the upper streets of Capitol Hill catch more wind and rain than the flatter, more sheltered blocks near Deer Lake, and that affects how long a coat needs to dry before the next one goes on.
We run our exterior season May through early October, sometimes later if the weather holds, and we won’t coat a wall unless overnight temperatures stay above 2°C — a cold, damp night is exactly when a finish fails to cure properly. Moisture meters get used before every job starts. Burnaby also has more strata and multi-unit townhome complexes than much of our service area, particularly around South Slope, Brentwood, and Edmonds, so it’s worth confirming any exterior colour change with your strata council — something we build into the estimate stage rather than after a colour is chosen.
What Can Affect Your Exterior Painting Timeline in Burnaby
– Townhome and strata complexes around South Slope, Edmonds, and Brentwood may set their own exterior colour rules, so it’s worth confirming with your strata council early — we build that timeline into the estimate.
– Homes higher up on Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill see more wind and rain exposure than the more sheltered streets near Deer Lake, which can stretch drying time between coats.
– Older post-war bungalows and Vancouver Specials near Burnaby Heights and Capitol Hill sometimes reveal bare wood or failed caulking once loose paint is scraped back, adding a repair step before primer goes on.
– Overnight temperatures below 2°C pause any coating work until conditions recover, which matters most for bookings at the edges of the season.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does exterior painting cost for a Burnaby home?
It depends on your home’s size, siding, and how much prep or repair is needed — older post-war bungalows and Vancouver Specials near Capitol Hill and Burnaby Heights often need more scraping and priming than a newer strata townhome near Brentwood. We give a free on-site estimate: a fixed price covering all labour, materials, and tax, valid for 30 days, that only changes if the scope does.
What's the best time of year to paint an exterior in Burnaby?
May through early October is our exterior season, and we won’t apply coatings unless overnight temperatures stay above 2°C, since cold nights stop paint from curing properly. Homes higher up on Burnaby Mountain and Capitol Hill see more wind and rain than sheltered streets near Deer Lake, so we factor that exposure into scheduling and drying time between coats.
Do you paint stucco, Hardie board, and cedar siding common in Burnaby homes?
We do. Stucco and original wood siding show up on many of Burnaby’s older post-war homes near Burnaby Heights and Capitol Hill, while Hardie board and vinyl are common on newer construction and the strata townhome complexes around South Slope and Government Road. We prep and coat all of them, including cedar fencing and trim.
How long does a typical exterior repaint take in Burnaby?
Most exterior projects run anywhere from a day to two weeks depending on size, siding condition, and how much repair is needed. Strata or townhome complexes near Highgate and Lougheed Town Centre can add a little lead time up front for colour approval, and our crew lead builds that into the schedule before confirming your start date.
Is Dreamscape Painting insured for exterior work in Burnaby?
Yes. Dreamscape carries liability insurance and WorkSafe coverage at all times, holds a business licence for every city we serve including Burnaby, and every exterior project comes with a 3-year warranty on craftsmanship. We’ve been painting Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver exteriors since 1990, so our estimators know how Burnaby’s mix of housing types affects the finish.
