From washing to painting
-
1. Commencing with Pressure Wash
Before beginning any painting work, we thoroughly pressure wash all surfaces to be coated. This key initial step effectively removes any dirt and debris from the substrate, providing a clean, clear surface for the work to begin. This assures that the upcoming layers of primer and paint can adhere properly to the surfaces, ensuring an even, long-lasting finish.
-
2. Thorough Inspection Process
Our team meticulously inspects all areas to be coated, outlining a detailed plan to complete the project effectively. We take note of areas that need special attention, such as loose nails or siding boards, and make an inventory of any parts that need replacement or repair, like stucco or wood. This ensures that every aspect of your home's exterior is attended to for the best results.
-
3. Repair and Replacement of Siding
In this stage, we undertake any necessary repairs or replacements to the siding materials. We match the material exactly to what is currently on your home, maintaining the integrity and uniformity of your property's appearance. Our objective is to restore the surface back to its original condition, ensuring a seamless look once the coating process is complete.
-
4. Detailed Hand Scraping
We manually scrape off all loose paint and debris. This essential step is done with utmost precision to provide a clean, bondable surface for the primer to be applied to. By removing any flaking or peeling paint, we ensure that the new coating adheres seamlessly for a polished, professional result.
-
5. Expert Caulking Application
We fill small cracks and holes in the siding and diligently caulk all vertical joints. This includes careful caulking around windows and doors to reduce air infiltration. Our use of high-quality elastomeric acrylic caulk ensures both longevity and flexibility, while avoiding caulking underneath the laps to preserve ventilation.
-
6. Comprehensive Masking
We take care to mask off, cover, or temporarily remove all areas not to be coated. This includes items such as lighting fixtures, mailboxes, drainpipes, utility boxes, etc. Extra attention is given to areas prone to overspray, such as roofing, plants, lawns, decks, and windows, to prevent accidental coating.
-
7. Application of Adhesive Primer Sealer
We spray on the primer to seal, waterproof, and provide a bonding agent for the finish coat. Our proprietary primer formula includes fungicides, algaecides, and mildewcides, which help reduce future mold and mildew growth. The primer dries to a clear, tacky finish, ready for the top-coat application.
-
8. Finish Coat Application
Finally, after all the meticulous prep work and priming is completed, the ceramic top-coat is applied. This layer can be tinted to your choice of 1500 colors. In some areas, brushing and rolling may be required for optimal results. Porous surfaces may require back rolling.
-
9. Detail Touch Up
Once the finish coat has been thoroughly applied, we touch up the detailed areas and tight spaces that might have been missed or need extra attention. This ensures that every nook and corner of your home's exterior looks perfect and professionally done.
-
10. Thorough Clean Up
After the finish coat has dried, we remove all masking materials and drop cloths. Any shrubbery that was tied off is undone, and paint chips are cleaned up, even shop vacuumed if necessary. We take pride in returning your surroundings to the same, if not better, condition as before we arrived.
-
11. Final Inspection
The project is not deemed complete until you’re completely satisfied with our work. We conduct a final inspection to ensure that our work meets your expectations and our high standards. We value your satisfaction and aim to deliver results that you'll love.
