The Do’s And Don’ts Of Exterior Painting

new home construction in upscale suburban areaOne of the best ways to boost your home’s curb appeal is to give your exterior a fresh coat of paint. Not only will this enhance the appearance of your home, but paint can protect wood and other surfaces from decay and damage. However, before you jump into the project yourself, you need to understand the risks and dangers that come with a home exterior paint job. Professional painters will complete your exterior painting project, saving your time and the risk of injury while also providing a polished result that a do-it-yourselfer may not be able to deliver.

 

Saving You Time

In order to produce a clean and polished exterior paint job, the do-it-yourselfer would have to spend a significant amount of time and energy carefully painting, where as an experienced professional can take care of the job quickly and effectively. When painting a house there are many difficult angles and recesses that are dangerous to access and are better left to the professionals. At J. Pallarino Painting we have the experience and equipment to deliver even and consistent paint coverage.

 

A DIY-er may not have the know how or equipment to handle older exterior paint that is chipped, blistered  or bubbled. As professionals we can strip and scrape off the paint and pressure wash your home and apply a fresh coat of paint that will last. Often times it takes professional judgment to determine what locations on your house need to be prepared for a quality paint job.

 

Preventing Potential Injury

Many homeowners also don’t have the equipment or experience to safely protect themselves during an exterior painting project. As professional painters we have the proper equipment to protect ourselves from inhaling paint dust or chemicals used for stripping paint. Accessing high points in exterior painting projects can also be dangerous. The ground surrounding your house can have areas that are not level and can thus pose a significant falling hazard.
