Power Washing is the Foundation of Our Exterior Paint Process
At CertaPro Painters® of Alexandria, VA, our exterior painting approach follows a structured process: washing, preparation, painting, cleanup, and final inspection. Power washing is the critical first step, removing dirt, mildew, loose paint, and other contaminants that could prevent proper paint adhesion.
Starting with a thoroughly cleaned surface allows new coatings to bond more effectively, helping improve both the appearance and durability of the finished paint job. This preparation is especially important in a region like Northern Virginia, where seasonal weather changes can be tough on exterior surfaces.

Power Wash
Any necessary areas of your home’s exterior will be power washed or hand washed to remove dirt and mildew.

Prep
Any loose paint is scraped, glossy areas are scuff sanded and any gaps are caulked to prevent water intrusion.

Paint
Your repaired areas are primed before premium-quality paint is applied to your home’s exterior, creating a uniform finish.

Clean
At the end of each day, the painting crew cleans up around your home, ensuring any paint chips are removed and all materials are stored neatly away.

Inspect
After our own inspection, your job site supervisor will walk you through the space, giving you the opportunity to review our work and to provide any initial feedback.
