Many homes were built from the 1980s through the 2000s, and HRCA guidelines regulate exterior paint colors, so repaints should be submitted for approval before work begins.

Local knowledge
What Highlands Ranch homeowners should plan for
HRCA color review comes first
HRCA publishes Residential Improvement Guidelines, and exterior paint is part of design review. Some villages have preferred palettes, and many homeowners find approved schemes through Sherwin-Williams' HOA color archive. Build review time into your schedule before you book a start date.
Homes reaching repaint age together
Much of Highlands Ranch was built from the 1980s through the 2000s. Original trim, fascia and decks on those homes are often wearing out around the same time.
Hardboard and early siding products
Aging hardboard or masonite-style siding needs careful inspection. Swollen or soft edges have to be addressed and sealed, because paint alone won't fix water damage.
Tall two-story elevations
Many homes have tall two-story walls and garage-forward facades, which affect staging, time and price.
Higher, sunnier ground
Highlands Ranch sits higher than central Denver, and south and west walls take intense sun. Product choice and good prep matter even more on those elevations.
Streets full of similar homes
When neighbors share floor plans, a well-chosen, approved color scheme and crisp trim are what make one house stand out in a good way.

Straight answers
Highlands Ranch painting questions
Do I need HRCA approval to paint my house in Highlands Ranch?
Exterior paint colors are regulated under HRCA's guidelines, and repaints are typically submitted for review, sometimes even when keeping the same colors. Rules can vary by village, so confirm current requirements with HRCA or your sub-association before scheduling.
Where can I find approved paint colors for my Highlands Ranch neighborhood?
Some villages publish preferred palettes, and Sherwin-Williams keeps an HOA color archive where many Colorado communities list approved schemes. Custom colors can often be submitted for review as well.
What should I do about swollen hardboard siding?
Soft, swollen or delaminating hardboard has absorbed water and should be evaluated before painting. Damaged pieces may need replacement, and sound pieces need their edges sealed and primed so paint can protect them.
How long does it take to paint a two-story home in Highlands Ranch?
Most exteriors take about 3 to 5 working days, though tall two-story homes, heavy prep and weather can add time. The written estimate spells out the schedule.
Do you stain decks in Highlands Ranch?
Yes. Decks, fences, railings and pergolas are cleaned, prepped and stained. If you are changing stain color, include it in your HRCA submission.
