Exterior Log Home Painting Project
CertaPro Painters® of Maine
Exterior Log Home Painting Service in Freeport, ME
This beautiful log home lost it’s luster and was in need of an exterior refresh. The homeowners called our team at CertaPro Painters® of Maine to complete the transformation. We had to overcome a few obstacles but we were confident we could get the job done. You can learn more about this project below!
About the Home
This log home had many issues to deal with prior to staining. This involved a heavy wash to remove all of the mildew, caulking between gaps/cracks and coating.
Over the years, this home has been through a lot as far as weather conditions – rain, sleet, snow, wind, and more have plummeted the exterior of this home. The log home siding had a ton of mildew and sun stains.
During the estimate appointment, our estimator identified the mildew and let the homeowner know the exterior would need to have some light carpentry work done to it before painting. The good news is that the light carpentry work is something we provide, so there was no need to call another contractor for the project.

The Process
We had to use a specific caulk to caulk gaps and cracks in the logs, that would match the color of the stain. The specific stain needed for a log home was tough to obtain during the pandemic. The wash needed to apply the stain properly is very specific also. Our experts pressure washed with a high solution of TSP, scrubbed areas where needed with a stiff bristle brush with a heavy TSP solution, and finally pressure washed the entire home. This is repeated multiple times before the house is ready to stain.
We took an old, unappealing home and made it look attractive and brand new again. The project only took about 10 days days and the customer was absolutely delighted with the results.

We were so happy with how the transformation turned out and we couldn’t wait for the homeowner’s to see the finished product!
