Our preparation process is comprehensive and tailored to each surface’s condition. We start with power washing exterior surfaces to remove dirt, mildew, and loose paint. Next, we scrape all peeling or flaking paint, sand rough areas smooth, and fill cracks, holes, and gaps with appropriate fillers. We caulk gaps around trim, windows, and doors to prevent moisture intrusion. All bare wood or metal gets primed with the appropriate primer for that surface. For homes built before 1980, we follow EPA Lead-Safe work practices. Interior prep includes patching holes, sanding imperfections, cleaning surfaces, and protecting floors and furniture. This thorough preparation is what separates professional results from quick paint jobs that fail prematurely.
