\"brickSchedule a Color Consultation<\/span><\/h2>\n

The first way you can get ready for an exterior painting service is by scheduling a free color consultation with our local design team. At your appointment, our painting specialists can help you find the best color for your specific home exterior. This service helps to make sure that you are completely sold on your final paint color before the first coat is even applied.<\/span><\/p>\n

Invest in a Power Washing Service\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

After you have decided on a paint color, it is best to have your home exterior cleaned. This allows your paint to be applied smoothly across the entire exterior of your residence. If your home hasn\u2019t been cleaned yet, investing in a professional power washing service can ensure that any hard to remove buildup is long gone prior to your exterior painting service. Our painters can power wash the following surfaces: Aluminum, brick, asphalt, wood, and concrete.<\/span><\/p>\n

Removing Loose Paint & Filling in Cracks<\/span><\/h2>\n

Another important step to take prior to painting your exterior is to remove any loose paint and fill in cracks along the surface. Our team makes this a part of our painting process when we come to your home for an exterior service. Once we have worked through this and the previous steps, your local home will be ready for new paint.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
