Paint protects wood, seals masonry, and prevents moisture damage that can be catastrophic over time. When applied incorrectly, however, it can trap moisture, obscure original details, or even cause long-term harm.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why we take the time to thoroughly prepare each surface\u2014gently removing failing paint, repairing woodwork when necessary, and using historically compatible materials that allow the structure to breathe.
