About the Neighborhood – NE Hidden Meadow Dr in McMinnville, OR

Tucked away in one of McMinnville’s most peaceful and family-friendly neighborhoods, NE Hidden Meadow Dr offers a unique blend of suburban charm and well-kept appeal. Tree-lined streets, manicured lawns, and pride of ownership are the norm here. Homes in this area are not only well-maintained but also thoughtfully styled, with homeowners placing a high value on appearances and long-term upkeep.

This makes professional residential painting an especially smart investment for residents in this neighborhood. With many homes built in a similar era and style, a fresh coat of paint—done right—can truly make a property stand out while still complementing the overall character of the community. This area is also perfectly situated for wine lovers. Just a short drive away are some of the Willamette Valley’s top wineries. We’ve proudly painted for many of the area’s top wineries, including Domaine DrouhinArchery SummitAlexanaLange Winery, and Native Flora.


Residential Painting Challenges – Wood Rot & Exterior Damage

Before our crew arrived, the home had several key issues that required expert care to ensure a lasting, quality paint job.

Rotted Wood Trim and Pillar Base Deterioration

Moisture had caused wood rot in the trim and pillar bases, weakening the structure and preventing proper paint adhesion. We removed damaged wood, made necessary repairs, and treated the surfaces to stop future decay.

UV-Faded and Peeling Paint

Years of sun exposure had faded and peeled the paint, leaving surfaces vulnerable. Our team scraped and sanded away loose paint, cleaned the surfaces, and applied UV-resistant primer and paint for durable protection.

Detailed Trim Areas Needing Precise Masking and Finish Work

The home’s intricate trim required careful masking and precise brushwork to avoid paint bleed and ensure a clean, professional finish that preserved the architectural details.


The Residential Painting Process

Surface Prep & Repairs

  • Replaced all damaged wood trim and rotting pillar bases

  • Power washed siding and trim to remove mold, debris, and old paint

  • Scraped and sanded affected areas

  • Applied high-quality primer to exposed surfaces

Paint Products Used

We used industry-leading paints designed to handle Oregon’s unique weather patterns. The homeowner selected a clean, classic palette with guidance from our estimator and color consultant.

Our paints were chosen for:

  • Long-term fade resistance

  • Strong adhesion

  • Easy maintenance

  • Beautiful satin finish
