Our exterior painting process involves
Below is a step-by-step process of what our exterior painting preparation involves.
Step 1: Protecting the area to be painted: The surrounding area will be protected to prevent damage during the painting process. Our team will clear the area by getting rid of anything that is close to the wall that may get damaged during the painting process.
Step 2: Removal of old paint: If the old paint is flaking or chipping, our team will remove it to ensure that the surface is smooth.
Step 3: Fixing imperfections: All imperfections in the exterior walls such as nail holes gouge in the surface, and any other thing that may affect the quality of the painted surface is removed.
Step 4: Cleaning: Sanding generates a lot of dust. Our team will clean the surface before they start to paint.
Step 5: Priming: The next step is applying primer to the surface to mask off all minor imperfections and also make the paint look uniform.
Step 6: Masking areas that are not being painted: Any area in your house exterior that will not be painted will be masked.
step 7: Buying quality paint: The final step of exterior wall paint preparation is buying high-quality paint that will adhere to the surface properly and last for a long time. Our team will help you make the right choice when selecting paints for your home exterior.
Do I need to sand before painting the exterior?
Yes, sanding the exterior walls is necessary before the actual painting. Sanding not only helps to smoothen the exterior walls by getting rid of uneven surfaces but also provides a strong mechanical bond between the coats of paint. If you fail to sand before painting your exterior walls, the paint may look great at first but it will start to show all sorts of imperfections a few months later.
Is primer necessary for exterior painting?
YES, primer plays a crucial role in an exterior painting project. This resin-based material acts as the initial coat of the exterior paint job and it effectively seals the underlying surface so that other materials including the paint cannot soak or penetrate into the underlying materials. Priming also promotes proper adhesion of the paint. If you skip priming, then you risk the paint peeling off, especially during humid conditions.
Can You Paint Home Exteriors in Rainy Weather?
Although it is possible to paint your home exterior in rainy weather, it is not a wise move. Rain will wash away wet paint off the surface. The paint will also will not adhere to the surface properly. If the paint does not get enough time to adhere to the surface properly, it will be washed away easily when it starts to rain. It is always recommended that you avoid painting your home’s exterior on rainy days.
Comprehensive Exterior House Paint Prep Services
Our exterior house paint preparation services are designed to address all aspects of getting your home’s exterior ready for a fresh coat of paint. Here’s what our thorough preparation process includes:
1. Pressure Washing and Cleaning
Before any other preparation work begins, we start by thoroughly pressure washing and cleaning the entire exterior surface of your home. Using professional-grade equipment and eco-friendly cleaning solutions, we remove dirt, grime, mildew, cobwebs, and other debris that can interfere with paint adhesion. This step is crucial for creating a clean and smooth surface for the new paint to adhere to properly.
2. Scraping and Sanding
Once the exterior is clean and dry, our team meticulously scrapes away any loose, flaking, or peeling paint. We use high-quality scrapers and take care not to damage the underlying surface. After scraping, we sand the entire exterior to create a smooth, even surface that is ready for priming and painting. Sanding helps to remove any remaining loose paint, smooth out rough spots, and provide a better surface for the new paint to adhere to.
3. Repairing Damaged Surfaces
Over time, your home’s exterior may develop cracks, holes, or other damage that needs to be repaired before painting. Our team is skilled in identifying and repairing these issues to ensure a flawless finish. We use premium-quality exterior spackling compound to fill in cracks and holes, and we sand the repaired areas smooth once the compound is dry. For more extensive damage, such as rotted wood, we may recommend replacement before proceeding with the painting process.
4. Caulking and Sealing
To prevent moisture intrusion and improve the overall appearance of your home’s exterior, we apply a high-quality, paintable exterior caulk to all gaps and cracks around windows, doors, and trim. This step helps to create a seamless, polished look and protects your home from the elements. Our team takes the time to properly apply and smooth the caulk for a professional finish.
5. Masking and Protecting Surfaces
Before any priming or painting begins, we carefully mask off and protect any surfaces that should not be painted, such as windows, light fixtures, hardware, and landscaping. We use high-quality painter’s tape and plastic sheeting to ensure crisp, clean lines and to prevent any accidental drips or splatters. Our attention to detail in the masking process sets us apart and guarantees a professional, polished result.
6. Priming the Exterior
Once all the preparation work is complete, we apply a high-quality exterior primer to the entire surface. Priming is essential for ensuring proper paint adhesion, improving coverage, and increasing the durability of the final paint job. We use premium primers that are specifically formulated for exterior use and are compatible with the type of paint that will be applied. Our team takes care to apply the primer evenly and thoroughly, creating the perfect base for the topcoat.

Is it better to roll or spray exterior house paint?
When painting the house exterior, it is always recommended that you roll as opposed to spaying. Rolling is ideal because it applies the paint much thicker thus giving better coverage compared to spaying. It is also much easier to be precise when rolling. It eliminates the risk of things like over spraying. If you want to get quality and durable results, you should roll as opposed to spraying the exterior paint.
