EXTERIOR PREPARATION
Preparation is a critical step in the application of a long lasting paint or stain job. A sound surface must be found and prepared properly for the top coatings it will receive. If we find any structural damage such as dry rot, we will bring it to your attention and appropriate actions will be taken to fix the problem prior to painting.
We take pride in our craftsmanship and we realize preparation and protection are vital to the longevity of the job.
The most important part of any paint job is not what you see, but what you don’t see…underneath the paint.
In preparing your exterior paint job we will
- Pressure wash house with environmentally friendly detergent for mildew, moss and grime removal and general cleaning as required
- Driveways & walkways cleaned upon request
- Delicate areas are hand-washed
- House is given time to dry
Scrape all loose paint throughout areas to be painted. - Feather sand rough edges as necessary for a more consistent and clean look.
- Glossy areas are scuff-sanded to ensure that finish coat bonds strongly.
- Apply specialty bonding primer to all applicable surfaces.
- Apply exterior primer to all bare wood.
- Caulking all splits in wood and windows for proper insulation and water damage prevention.
Exterior Protection:
Masking all windows and doors, protection of shrubbery, landscaping and walkways.
