Exterior Painting and Carpentry Repairs in Fairfax Station

In a recent blog we talked about the value of surface prep before exterior painting. If you missed it, check out the article right here. The takeaway is that surface preparation is a BIG deal:

1. Cleaning

2. Light repairs

3. Sanding/scraping

4. Priming

Each step is critical, wiping the slate clean before applying your new paint. This allows your paint to really grip and last, plus ensures that it won’t be compromised by surface failure. After all, if you paint over rot or cracks, it’s doomed right out of the gate. It’d be a little like washing and waxing a car with four flat tires: it’ll look okay for a while, but it’s not going to perform like you need it to.

Today, let’s go even deeper.
