Our Exterior Paint preparation includes:
- We will thoroughly clean all surfaces to remove dirt and mildew before painting.
- We will remove all loose paint, caulking, and glazing.
- We use acrylic latex caulk, which has a manufacturer's warranty of at least 40 years, to coat and siliconize all gapped or failed caulking. If necessary, the glazing will also be replaced.

- When doing the job, we cover driveways, walkways, and shrubbery- all areas for preparation or painting.
- We will spot-prime bare wood where loose paint has been removed before any finish is applied unless Sherwin Williams Duration, which is self-priming, is specified.
- We sand and check woodwork for imperfections, which, if large enough, will be sealed with wood filler. Then, the woodwork is sanded and primed before any finish is applied.
- We generally remove vertical drainpipes (downspouts) but don't remove horizontal gutter systems. The gutters themselves can be painted.
- We will clean work areas to your satisfaction when work is completed.
- We guarantee your satisfaction with all of our two-coat work.
