\"CrowPainting to exteriors in the Crow Point community since 1998.<\/strong><\/h6>\n

CertaPro Painters has worked on dozens of homes in Crow Point since 1998. \u00a0Ask your neighbors how we did!<\/p>\n

Crow Point wood exteriors should be painted about every 7 years:<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Crow Point homes over 7 years old are likely due for an exterior coat of paint.<\/p>\n

Painting a wood exterior, including cedar shingles, every 7 years is the cadence we recommend in the Hingham and South Shore area to account for the harsh New England climate. \u00a0Because Crow Point is so close to the waterfront, the paints and stains we recommend must stand up to the harsh climate.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

If you\u2019re thinking of choosing a different exterior paint color other than the color you already have, you can work with Kate Rafoth, our designer<\/a>, to choose an exterior paint color that fits right in with the Crow Point vibe.<\/p>\n

\"MahoganyCrow Point decks and porches:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Decks and porches add to the sense of community in Crow Point, and wood ones must be maintained regularly to stay protected and beautiful.<\/p>\n

Mahogany is a common deck material in Hingham<\/a>\u00a0that needs to be restained every 1-2 years (we know, we wish it were lower maintenance too).<\/p>\n

If any wood on your wood decks or porches has rotted, our carpenters can replace the boards before we paint or stain your deck.<\/p>\n

\n

One stop for carpentry and painting:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Our clients appreciate that we have carpenters on staff to replace rotted wood trim, clapboards, and decking before we paint<\/a>. \u00a0One call akes care of your carpentry and painting needs.<\/p>\n

Replacing Cedar shingles \u2013 a whole side or just a few!<\/strong><\/h6>\n

A quick drive through the Crow Point community reveals many homes sided in cedar shingles. \u00a0If yours are buckling or missing, o<\/a>ur carpenters can replace just a few or a whole side of cedar shingles before we paint.<\/p>\n

If your cedar shingles are structurally in good shape but are black or dark green, you often have mold and mildew growth and need CertaPro Painters to powerwash them.<\/p>\n

Rotted wood trim:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Exterior wood trim often rots in places close to the ground and where the trim has been cut or mitered. \u00a0This is because moisture tends to be prevalent in these sensitive areas.<\/p>\n

Our carpenters<\/a> can replace just the rotted boards with PVC trim which won\u2019t rot.<\/p>\n

Once the PVC is painted, it looks just like wood, so we can splice in PVC only where needed and leave the wood in good shape.<\/p>\n

Rotted wood clapboards:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you notice a few rotted clapboards on the siding of your home, our carpenters can replace the clapboards before we paint<\/a>. \u00a0Once the side of your home is painted, the new clapboards blend with the old ones seamlessly.<\/p>\n

Replacing deck and porch wood:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Because of rainwater puddling on the floor of your deck and porches, the wood on decks and porches can rot faster than wood on the rest of your home.<\/p>\n

Our carpenters can replace any wood your deck needs, including railings, floorboards, stairs, and banisters.<\/p>\n
