Step-by-Step Exterior House Painting Process:  b House Painting:

1. Pressure Washing: Pressure washing is the best method to prepare your home for painting. We only use bio-degradable, environmentally safe and specifically designed exterior cleaning products  to assure that the environment is safe guarded and your house is thoroughly cleaned. We use a gas-powered pressure washer to blast away built-up mold, mildew, dirt and grime, delicate areas are hand-washed. When wash is done we clean up any loose paint chips and house is given proper time to dry.
2. Rotted Wood Repair: We repair and/or replace any rotted wood around windows, fascias, soffits, doors, decks and anything made of wood.
3. Preparation: The most important step in exterior house painting, preparing the surface prior to painting  will make or break the paint job. Before start the prep work we protect the exterior with plastic tarps along the ground to catch paint chips. All shutters and downspouts are removed and house exterior is prepared for paint by sanding, scraping to remove all loose paint and flaking paint, sand any glossy area for proper paint adhesion, bare areas are properly primed and WE LET THE PRIMER DRY, areas around doors and windows are caulked with Siliconized Acrylic Caulk.
4. Inspection: Inspection prior to painting to avoid any irregularities on the finish coat.
5. Painting: We only use Top Quality Paints and Stains from Benjamin Moore, California Paints, Cabot Stains, Sikkens and apply them under manufacturer’s specifications. Before finish coat is applied we place canvas drop cloth along the ground, cover all light fixture with plastic sheet, protect grass, bushes and any non-painted area against drips. Full coat of tinted oil base primer on body is applied to proper protection and paint adhesion. House is given proper time to dry. Paint is applied with a brush and roller, we do NOT use sprayers.
6. Clean-up: Our clean-up is performed daily & upon job completion.
