Exterior Painting Prep Guide
CertaPro Painters® of Gilbert-Queen Creek, AZ
Typical Crew Start Time: 8:30 AM – 9:30 AM
Please note that a member of our team or the original estimator may arrive later than this window if needed.
External factors such as weather conditions or changes in the scope of previous projects may occasionally impact your scheduled start date. If any adjustments are necessary, rest assured that we will inform you promptly to keep you updated.
For Exterior Projects:
In order to ensure efficiency, safety, and smooth progress for everyone involved, please complete the following before we arrive:
FOLIAGE
If you have bushes that are touching the house and/or surfaces to be painted or repaired, please trim them back a minimum of 12 inches. Vines close to or connected to the house should also be removed. If this is not possible, we will do our best to paint behind them, but cannot guarantee perfect coverage.
WINDOWS
Please securely close all windows before we arrive for pressure washing. Notify your Job Site Supervisor if you’ve experienced water leaks around your windows or doors in the past. If leakage is a concern, we recommend placing towels around windows that may be prone to water leakage.
PATIO/ PORCHES
Please remove all small and fabric items from your patio or porch areas before we begin pressure washing and painting. We will not pressure wash patios or porches unless they’re being stained by us to avoid peeling paint issues.
SCREENS
We will remove window screens if needed to complete the project.
PETS
Please plan to keep pets out of the working area. If there are any special instructions regarding gates, latches, doors, or other pet-related items, please inform your Job Site Supervisor upon arrival.
PROPERTY ACCESS
Ensure you provide access to all parts of the property within the scope of work. Unlock gates and provide any necessary codes for locks or lockboxes, if applicable.
WATER & ELECTRICITY
We will likely need access to exterior water spigots and electricity. Please inform your Job Site Supervisor where these are located.
PARKING
If there are parking restrictions in your neighborhood, please inform us in advance. For city buildings with limited parking deck space, please suggest the best parking location.
ASSISTANCE
If you are unable to complete any of these preparations, please contact us and we will be happy to assist. Charges may apply.
HOA Permission
If you live in a neighborhood governed by a Homeowners Association, please check the by-laws and ensure compliance with any color or work restrictions.
CERTAPRO PAINTERS WILL PERFORM THE FOLLOWING SERVICES:
1. We will move all large patio or porch furniture and group into the center of the patio, yard or move it somewhere that is clear from the work area. Some weight restrictions may apply.
2. All patio or porch furniture that stays close to the work area will be covered in either plastic and/or painters’ drop cloths.
3. Patio or porch furniture that we move will be put back after the job is completed.
4. We will remove any trash, leftover materials, and empty cans from your property and dispose of it.
5. Leftover cans of paint will be marked and left for the customer for reference, and for touch ups if requested.
WALKTHROUGH AND PROJECT COMMUNICATION
To ensure your satisfaction with the completed project, the Job Site Supervisor (painter on site) will answer any questions during the project and conduct a walkthrough with you once the work is finished. You are not expected to make a payment until this has been done. The Supervisor’s goal is to showcase the exceptional quality of work that he and his crew have completed, allowing you to take pride in the results.
- The Job Site Supervisor or our Production Associate will inform you of the expected completion day and time.
- The Job Site Supervisor will walk the house and the project with you to ensure you are satisfied with the work. The on-site Job Site Supervisor will be your primary point of contact during the project. You can also call the Production Associate if you need further assistance.
- After the walkthrough is completed, payment can be made to the Job Site Supervisor.
Please make time in your schedule to meet with our Job Site Supervisor for the walkthrough.
