“We had the most wonderful experience with B&K Painting! From the first request for an estimate with John the owner, to communicating changes and details with Lyshelle on their administrative team, to the painters who worked so hard (and yet still so timely) Joe, Lucas, and Abby we can’t say enough about their entire team! We picked some bold colors and they absolutely nailed the placement and were sure to carefully keep the details of our 90 year old house! They also left the house, porches, and patios spotless! We will be regular customers for life! Thank you B&K!” -Jaime H.

Sometimes we get to make a transformation happen that just speaks for itself. This is one of those. For the body on this Boise home we used to color Pewter Green SW 6208. And for the trim/accents we used the color Butterscotch SW 6377. Simple, and yet when you see the before photos the difference seems massive. Click here to see for yourself!

🌩️ Boise homeowners—how did your home hold up after this weekend’s storm? The heavy rain, hail, and strong winds that moved through the Treasure Valley this weekend left many homes with damage that isn’t always easy to spot. From chipped and peeling paint to damaged siding, trim, and water intrusion, small issues can quickly become bigger problems if left unaddressed. Local reports also noted damaging wind gusts, hail, and flooding across parts of the area. (click to continue)

This was a fun revamp on a Boise home! We stained the cedar shingles in Oxford Brown using WoodScapes, giving the exterior a rich, updated look while preserving the natural character of the wood. To complete the transformation, we repainted the trim in Shoji White (SW 7042) with Sherwin-Williams Latitude for a clean, crisp contrast. A simple color update can make a dramatic difference, and we love how this one turned out!

Our client stayed close to the original palette, choosing Antler Velvet SW 9111 for the body, Cowboy Boots SW 115 for the trim, and Laurel Woods SW 7749 for the front door.  (click here to see)

We gave this church a fresh exterior repaint—because weather happens, even on sacred ground. Over time, the elements had taken their toll, so this was all about a simple, thoughtful refresh as well as painting the new build. The new coat sharpens the details and brings everything back to looking clean and well cared for, without changing the character that makes the building familiar to its community. (click to see)

Don’t forget about your fence—it might not be the first thing you think of, but it has a big impact on how your entire property looks and feels. Faded color, peeling paint, or weathered boards can quietly drag down your property’s overall appearance. The good news is that a little attention goes a long way. A fresh coat of paint or stain not only revives your fence visually but also protects it from harsh sun, rain, and temperature swings that can cause long-term damage. It’s one of the simplest ways to boost curb appeal while extending the life of your outdoor investment. (click to continue)

As the weather is warming up, we’re already starting exterior painting season. It’s always a good time to start thinking about projects that may have been put off during the colder months—whether that’s refreshing your home’s look or protecting it from the elements. Planning ahead can make a big difference, especially since schedules tend to fill up quickly once the season is in full swing. Even if you’re just exploring ideas or timelines, now’s a great time to start the conversation and get a feel for what your project might involve. Looking forward to another season of helping clients love their homes.
