A great, long lasting Exterior Paint job starts with proper preparation!
- Smith Brothers is a Certified Lead Safety Contractor and will comply with all EPA RRP lead safe work practices!
- Smith Brothers start by washing the exterior surfaces of the house. Often it it necessary to treat the siding with mold killing agents.
- The Repaint Pros then cover your shrubbery and walkways to contain any falling paint chips.
- Then comes scraping of any loose or peeling paint. (Houses built prior to 1978 may require wet scraping and other lead safe practices!)
- The Repaint Pros then sand the affected areas to feather out the old paint for a more uniform appearance.
- Caulking is the next important step to weatherize, and protect the siding and trim at vulnerable areas.
- Smith Brothers always then Prime over any and all bare or new wood to increase adhesion and lengthen longevity of top coats.
- Next comes the Paint! We utilize many application methods- Hand brushing, rolling, spraying. Getting a uniform appearance is important.
- Second coats are then put on as needed for longevity, uniformity, color coverage and contract obligations.
- Finally clean up and the Exterior Painting is compete. But The Repaint Pros arent quite done yet!
- Smith Brothers label all of your paint cans for future use.
- Allow you to inspect all of the work- doing a walkthrough of the job to make sure you're completely satisfied with the quality of the work.
