Exterior painting · Prairie Hollow & the four counties · since 1987

WEATHER COMES FROM THE WEST. SO DO WE.

Field & Frame paints what the plains throw weather at — barns, farmhouses, grain-store frontages, miles of fence — in three-coat systems rated for wind, hail and the particular cruelty of February. Fixed prices before the sprayer leaves the yard.

The spring window fills first. Exteriors run May to September and the June slots are gone by April — (555) 908-1276 reaches the yard, not a menu.

The four weathering jobs

01

Barns & machine sheds

Sheeted steel and old board both get the same discipline: wash, spot-prime the rust and the checks, bond coat, finish coat. A sixty-by-hundred-twenty shed is a four-day job for our sprayer rig, boom lift included.

02

Farmhouses

The house gets the gentle cousin of the barn system — full scrape, spot-prime, bond and finish — plus the trim that always fails first: soffits, fascia and the west gable nobody re-painted in 1999.

03

Fence & corral lines

Quarter-mile runs brightened and flooded with solid stain, both sides, rails brushed where the sprayer cannot be trusted. Post tops get sealed — end grain drinks the weather otherwise.

04

Town frontages

Prairie Hollow’s main street is our contract list: shopfronts, the co-op, the hardware store. Night shifts, masked sign panels, and a finish that survives being downwind of everything.

They did the dairy barn in June and the hailstorm came through in July — the kind that takes shingles. The paint held like it had been there thirty years. Doug walked the whole barn with me afterward, pointing at his own work, which is a thing you do not forget.

The weather-window promise

If a coat fails inside seven years on a surface we prepped and painted, we repaint it — materials, labour and the drive. We schedule around the forecast because the warranty is real, and a coat rushed ahead of rain is a coat we buy twice.

Measure the farm. Price the weather.

Tell us the surfaces and the county. The walkthrough is free inside ninety miles, the sheet prices everything we measure, and the calendar is honest about the wind. yard@fieldandframe.example
