What Is Our Exterior Painting Process?

Posted on March 12, 2024

We are right at the beginning of spring, so you may be thinking of refreshing the exterior of your home in preparation of warmer weather and sunshine. Exteriors can be tricky painting project to tackle on your own, so hiring professional painters is a great first step to updating your home’s look. Outside of past customer reviews and examples of their work, it’s a good idea to learn about a professional painting company’s exterior painting process before hiring them.

When it comes to exterior painting, CertaPro Painters of East Metro Atlanta’s detailed approach guarantees that our customers are happy with the finished product every time. Here is how we tackle exterior painting projects from the beginning to the completed product:

1. Transparent Quoting

Your painting project with us starts with a free consultation with one of our professional painters. They’ll visit your home to see your home’s exterior since we believe seeing the exterior in person is the best way to evaluate it. During your estimate, our professional painter will provide you with a selection of paint hues, an expected timeline for project completion, and, of course, a cost estimate based on the unique needs and scope of your project. This approach allows us to provide you with an accurate, detailed quote as well as address any concerns you may have before starting a painting project.

2. Rigorous Prep Work

If you decide you move forward with us as your painters, we start our painting process with intense prep. We believe prepartory work to be a critical element to achieving a top-notch paint finish, so we follow a series of steps that we’ve defined for every exterior painting project before we begin any painting:

  • Clean surfaces to rid them of mold and/or mildew.
  • Remove any existing paint that is peeling as well as smoothing out areas with scuffing and sanding.
  • Seal any gaps in your exterior with caulk to avoid any moisture seeping in.

We focus on every detail of our prep tasks, ensuring the well-being of your property.

3. Professional Painting

Once preparation is complete, we begin the actual painting. We prime all surfaces and use premium quality paints so that the new coat of paint has a consistent finish and lasts for years to come. During the painting process, we make sure to clean up after ourselves, strive to minimize disruption to your daily life, and make sure you are informed of everything along the way. We believe respecting your home as well as keeping open lines of communication makes for an exceptional painting experience. Once we approach project completion, we will walk you through our work to make sure you are completely satisfied with your exterior’s new look.
