Exterior Painting Services

So, it’s time to paint the outside of your house. This is one of the many expensive pains to owning a house and one that homeowners have to go through every 6-8 years, depending on your house and siding.

First, determine if there is some prep work that needs to be conducted prior to painting.

Do you have any rotted siding, window sills, hand railing, or window and door trim? Make certain you take this opportunity to deal with these issues prior to painting. Many times paint companies have experience in this area and may provide a quote that includes replacing your siding and trim.

However, if your project requires replacing a significant amount of siding you may need to call a siding professional. Make certain the painter or carpenter replacing your siding is using the same style and size you presently have.

Second, choose if you want to take this opportunity to change the color of your house. Revising the color can lend new zest to your house.

When evaluating what colors to use, make certain that they fit into your subdivision as well as colors that already exist.

For instance you already have a roof, plants, landscaping, a foundation, and a driveway present. These all have colors that need to be taken into account when trying to compliment your house to its surroundings.

Third, determine if you want your house hand brushed or sprayed. If you leave it to Mr. Moles Painting Company to decide you will most likely have it sprayed because it is faster and easier. However, if you have an older house, wood siding, or it has been a while since your last painting you likely want to consider asking for a quote that includes painting by hand. The hand brushing application will provide a thicker coat and gets the paint deeper into the wood and crevasses, ensuring that you have protection from water penetration.

Never underestimate the impact a fresh, clean coat of paint can make to the outside of your home! It doesn’t matter if we’re working with stucco, brick, wood siding, vinyl, cedar shingles, or wood trim.
