Omaha's Brutal Weather Doesn't Hold Back — Neither Should Your Paint.
Scorching summers nearing 100°F, freezing winters plunging below zero, hailstorms, relentless winds, and intense UV rays all attack your home's exterior. Once the paint fails, moisture sneaks in — leading to wood rot, mildew, peeling, and expensive structural damage that costs far more than a quality paint job ever would.
At Great Plains Painting, we protect Omaha homes the right way. We expertly paint siding, trim, fascia, soffits, doors, shutters, garage doors, gutters, downspouts, decks, and fences.
We handle every surface: vinyl, wood, fiber cement, aluminum, stucco, brick, and metal. Whether you own a classic 1960s ranch in Millard or a brand-new build in Elkhorn, we tailor our process to your home's specific materials and Omaha's tough conditions.
Every project ends with a walkthrough. We go room by room with you, checking every edge, every corner, every detail.
If something is not right, we fix it on the spot. You do not pay until you are completely satisfied.

Preferred ContractorPremium paint makes a difference you can see for years
As a Sherwin-Williams preferred contractor, we get volume pricing on their best exterior products and pass those savings to you. We recommend Duration or Emerald Exterior for most projects because they have the best combination of durability, coverage, and color retention available.
Duration is rated for up to 15 years on properly prepared surfaces, resisting cracking, peeling, and blistering even in Nebraska's extreme temperature swings. It also has a self-priming formula that reduces coats on repaint jobs, saving time and money without cutting corners.
Duration Exterior
Our go-to for most projects. Self-priming, extreme weather resistance, 15-year durability.
Emerald Exterior
Superior hide and the smoothest finish available. Best for high-visibility areas.
SuperPaint
Great mid-range option with solid durability and excellent color selection.
Extreme Bond Primer
For surfaces needing extra adhesion: vinyl, metal, glossy existing paint.

Surfaces We Paint
Every siding type requires a different approach
Vinyl Siding
Yes, vinyl can be painted. The key is using a paint formulated for vinyl expansion and contraction, like Sherwin-Williams VinylSafe colors. We also never go darker than the original color to prevent heat warping. Many older Omaha homes have faded vinyl that looks brand new after painting.
Wood Lap Siding
Wood requires the most prep but gives the best finish when done right. We check moisture content, repair or replace rotted boards, prime all bare wood with oil-based primer, and apply two coats of acrylic latex. Wood homes in Dundee, Benson, and older Midtown neighborhoods are our specialty.
Fiber Cement (Hardie Board)
James Hardie siding is common in newer Elkhorn and West Omaha construction. It holds paint well but needs proper priming on cut edges and nail heads. We use bonding primer on all repairs and touch-ups, then two coats of premium latex for a factory-like finish.
Stucco & Brick
Masonry surfaces need breathable paint that allows moisture vapor to escape. We use elastomeric coatings on stucco to bridge hairline cracks, and mineral-based paint on brick to prevent peeling. These surfaces can last 20+ years between paintings with the right products.
Where We Work
Serving the entire Omaha metro area
We paint homes throughout Douglas and Sarpy counties, from the historic neighborhoods of Midtown and Dundee to new construction in Elkhorn and Bennington. Our crews know the area, the architecture, and the specific challenges of painting in Nebraska's climate.
