Exterior Painting
Our Projects Before & After
What to Expect
Preparation:
Pressure wash and scrap any loose paint
Drop cloths will catch loose paint, whatever they don’t catch we will clean up before the end of your project
All exterior features will be removed (shutters, downspouts, storm windows, decorations)
All furniture will be moved or covered
Masking: windows, doors, light fixtures, walk ways will be covered
Process:
Wood Surfaces: primed with oil based primer; this will help preserve the wood & ensures the topcoat will adhere
Aluminum Surfaces: washed and scrubbed with an eco-friendly cleaner; this will ensure all “chalky residue” is removed, allowing topcoat to adhere
Caulking: exterior grade, will shrink and swell with the crazy changing temperatures; this will remain crack resistant
Paint Product: Locally owned and operated Trio Paint or Sherwin Williams. Both are exterior grade, fade & moisture resistant, and hold up well to our Michigan weather
Paint Application: Large surfaces will be sprayed; Small surfaces will be done by hand; All surfaces receive minimum 2 coats
Additional Notes:
Clean Up: we will do any necessary clean up to your yard
Extra Paint: Clearly labeled and left for your future use or touch-ups
