Steps We Follow
The following are the procedures for painting your home.
A. Move everything away from the structure.
B. Dig a trench 4-6 inches around the structure so stain is applied below ground level.
C. Power wash all surfaces to be painted, to remove mildew, cobwebs, dirt and allow proper adhesion of all materials.
D. Renail any loose boards on siding and trim, remove any unwanted hooks, screws or nails, making sure that all surfaces are prepared and ready for priming and painting.
E. Scrape, power sand and hand sand loose paint from all areas, where needed.
F. Sand doors and trim in preparation for proper bonding of the finish coating.
G. Repair and prime any special preparation areas listed in your contract, such as cracks in the wood, repairing holes, etc.
H. Prime new construction or prepared areas according to manufacturers specifications.
I. Caulk areas where needed. The extreme weather conditions at Lake Almanor cause your home to expand and contract more than normal; therefore we recommend caulking only where needed for moisture intrusion, and only a high quality caulking compound should be used.
J. Mask areas not to be painted, including windows, hardware, lights, decks, cement, plants, and where needed.
K. Apply finish coatings to the main structure, according to the manufacturers specifications.
L. Apply finish coatings to trim, doors and other accent areas.
M. Touch up areas as needed to complete job.
N. Clean up job site, removing all painting garbage, and put back items that were moved for painting.
O. Call owner for a final inspection.
