Exterior Painting Built for Port Moody's Climate
Port Moody sits at the head of Burrard Inlet, ringed by mountains and dense forest. It's one of the most scenic places to live in Metro Vancouver — and one of the most challenging for exterior paint. The combination of high rainfall, frequent fog rolling in off the Inlet, minimal sunlight through the tree canopy, and temperatures that fluctuate across seasons creates ideal conditions for moss, algae, and mildew to colonize wood siding, cedar shingles, and painted surfaces. Without proper prep and the right products, an exterior paint job here won't last two years.
Texora Painting's exterior process begins well before a brush opens. We power wash the entire exterior, treat biological growth with a biocide solution, allow thorough drying time, and then scrape, sand, and spot-prime any failing paint before applying a full prime coat to bare or weathered surfaces. Only then do we apply two full finish coats of a high-build elastomeric or 100% acrylic exterior paint — products that flex with Port Moody's freeze-thaw cycles, shed water aggressively, and inhibit future moss regrowth. We also caulk all joints, window perimeters, and trim connections to stop water infiltration before it damages the substrate.
We work on all siding types common in Port Moody: HardiePlank fibre cement on newer Heritage Mountain homes, wood lap siding on craftsman bungalows in Pleasantside, stucco on mid-century properties near Old Orchard, and cedar shingles on heritage homes along Murray Street. Every material requires specific primers and application techniques — we know the difference and we apply them correctly. The result is a finish that not only looks great but forms a genuine weather barrier your home depends on.
