Exclusive 9-Step
Surface Prep Process
Another key to the possible painting
results is careful and thorough surface preparation. We have an exclusive
9-step process:
1.
Exterior: Pressure wash entire structure, treating
mildewed areas with a diluted chlorine solution. Interior: wash kitchen and
bathroom walls with TSP as needed.
2.
Remove all flaking paint (hand scrape, heat gun,
chemical stripper).
3.
Power and hand sand as needed for superior adhesion.
4.
Apply primer to all exposed substrates (specific primer
on wood / stucco / metal).
5.
Spackle holes and cracks, as needed.
6.
Caulk gaps and openings where appropriate (with
high-grade elastometric caulking).
7.
Re-glaze broken or cracked window putty as needed.
8.
Exterior: Repair stucco cracks with high-grade
elastometric patching compound.
9.
Interior: Patch holes and cracks in drywall and / or
plaster.
High Quality 2 Coat
Paint Finish
Paint is applied by brush, roller,
or state-of-the-art paint sprayers. We apply two coats for lasting results.
Extensive Site Cleanup
We do a thorough site clean up at
the end of each work day and when the project is complete. All paint, tape,
masking materials, and any related items are removed.
