Don't worry – exterior painting is actually something you can do all by yourself! DIY'ing your home's new look isn't as hard as it sounds. With these useful tips by Ricciardi Brothers, you can give your home's exterior an updated fresh coat of paint that looks as clean and neat as if a professional had done it!

Size of Your Home An average-size house will take an average of three to four days to paint with a team of two to three people. In this case, average means a home with one to two stories and four or fewer bedrooms. A large house, such as a three-story or five-plus-bedroom home, will take five to six days.

To begin the exterior painting of a house without scaffolding, you may consider getting yourself an access platform. They come in many shapes and sizes. Some are more suited to lower-level action, and if they aren't high enough, they provide a good stable ground to combine with an extension pole.

Painting a house by yourself is extremely difficult if you are not experienced and can take several days or weeks.
