What Incline Homes Are Up Against

Incline sits around 6,350 feet. That means stronger UV than Reno, heavy snow on decks and trim all winter, and a short summer window for exterior work. Stain on a south-facing wall or a deck can look tired in a single season if the prep and product aren't right.

Short summer window

Exterior work up here mostly happens between late spring and early fall, so exterior jobs book early in the year. Interiors and cabinets run all winter.

Snow and freeze-thaw

Snow piles against siding and sits on decks for months. We pay close attention to the bottom courses of siding, deck boards and end grain, where water does the most damage.

Shoreline homes

Lakefront and near-shore homes in Incline have to keep a subdued earth tone under TRPA's rules. Homes farther up the hill usually don't.

Incline Village Painting Questions

When is exterior painting season in Incline Village?

Roughly late spring through early fall, once nights stay above freezing and the snow is gone. The window is short, so we book exterior jobs early in the year. Interiors and cabinets run all winter.

Do you work on log homes?

Yes. Logs take a different process than flat siding. We clean off dirt, mildew and loose stain, fill the checks and cracks where water gets in, then stain. The south and west sides take the most sun and wear first, so those are the walls to watch.

Can you work on my house while I'm away?

Yes. We keep you updated every day as the work moves along, so you don't need to be on site.

Do I need TRPA approval to repaint?

Usually not. TRPA treats painting as ordinary maintenance. The exception is color: homes near the shoreline have to keep the main color a subdued, medium-to-dark earth tone.
