We keep a close eye on the local weather forecasts, scheduling our work only when conditions are just right. That way, we can be sure the paint does exactly what it's supposed to.
When we paint older homes here in Mountlake Terrace, surface preparation is absolutely key for a paint job that actually lasts. First off, we give everything a really good scrub, getting rid of dirt, mildew, and any loose bits. Then, if there's any paint that's peeling or cracking, we scrape it right off and sand it smooth. We also take care of any wood rot or damage, fixing it up before we even think about priming. This careful prep work means the new paint sticks properly and you get a nice, even finish – no premature flaking, you know?
