Achieving A Perfect Finish

When starting a new exterior paint job it’s crucial that every step is completed. Skipping one of these tasks can lead to an improper finished product or at least an eye sore. Below is a step by step list our professional painters and home repair specialists follow to achieve a perfect finish every time.

Pressure Washing

The first step we take when starting an exterior paint job is pressure washing the perimeter of the house. This will remove old paint, dust, mold, and any other debris that can potentially stop new paint from adhering to the walls of your home.

Now that the house has been washed down and deep cleaned our team will move onto the next step and start masking vulnerable areas such as doors, windows, railings, light fixtures, driveways, walkways, To ensure these areas are protected from unwanted paint residue.

After all the masking is properly completed we start preparing the walls of the home to be painted. We concentrate on repairing all damaged areas around the perimeter of the home. Rather its wood repair, trim repair, stucco repair, or brick repair, We always get it done the right way. Our pro’s also focus on caulking cracks and small holes that allow moisture to seep in and cause further damage to your home down the line.

Before & After – Exterior Painting Albuquerque

Painting Over Brick

Some people prefer to preserve the brick on their home while others want to transform their home all together. To preserve the brick we pressure wash the exterior brick walls and let dry completely. After the drying phase we spray a water proofing coat over the bricks that drys transparent. This method locks the fresh look from the pressure washing in and also protects the brick from moisture and harsh weather conditions in the future. It’s ideal to treat your bricks in this manner every 5 years.

The upside to painting a brick house is being able to repair cracks and loose bricks with mortar. Without the paint to cover, The repairs are very noticeable. So if you have damaged bricks or missing mortar between the bricks painting your brick house might be the way to go. If done right paint on brick can last much longer than other painted material such as wood or stucco. The paint will also protect the exterior from moisture and weather conditions down the line.

At the end of the day it’s just preference. Do you preserve your home or transform and protect it? Regardless what you decide we have you covered every step of the way.
