Exterior Painting In The Pacific Northwest
Extraordinary Gig Harbor exterior home painting begins with extensive prep work. Preparation is half the effort one puts into anything. Whether it’s the education you need for a job, the training for a marathon or the time musicians devote to their craft before taking it to the stage, preparation is essential. It’s the same with exterior home painting. We’ve got to prep your home to be painted in order to arrive at incredible results. Prep work includes:
- Power spraying your Gig Harbor home to wash away the dust, dirt, and grime, the mildew and moss
- Scrape the entire exterior painted surface to remove any remaining detritus and create a clean “canvas” to paint on
- The last part of the prep is to seal your home from moisture by caulking all the unwanted cracks and crevices with NP-150 SONOLASTIC caulk
