The Importance of Exterior House Prep Before Painting Your Home

A. L. Painting recommends that if you have a
house with any hardie plank product,
you spray-paint the hardie plank product,
and hand brush all the woodwork.

Extensive preparation to the exterior surfaces of the home is required when considering the desired results of exterior house painting.

While spray painting the exterior surface is appropriate, some home owners consider brush exterior painting for a lustrous, rich finish that is hand applied by a exterior painting professional.

How We Prep Your House For Professional Exterior Painting Results

    • Pressure wash the entire exterior
    (removes loose and peeling paint, mold and mildew, dust and pollen)
    * Please allow a day of full sun to ensure complete exterior drying
    • Cracks and holes are filled in and sanded smooth
    • Remaining peeling paint is hand scraped
    • Bare wood is primed by hand
    • Shrubbery, plant beds and flowers are covered for protection
    • Windows and decorative doors are covered with plastic sheeting

The truth is, exterior painting is not where you want to cut corners. Using anything less than a high quality paint and premium painting supplies could make your home vulnerable.
