Save $ Money & Always Have a Home that Looks New
Our approach to exterior painting is quite simple; Make it look exquisite and make it last a very long time.
Most homeowners don't realize that paint deterioration starts the next day after anyone finishes painting. However, the good news is paint deterioration typically isn't noticeable for several years. But paint failure begins to accelerate as time goes by. The declining rate is actually more like a parabolic curve or a line that is bending downward, meaning that the paint is fine for several years, but once it begins to noticeably fail, the failure process speeds up tremendously. While the exterior paint looks great in years 1, 2, 3, and 4, by year 5 or 6, it is starting to perform poorly. If you wait too long, your costs to repaint go up considerably, i.e., more removal of failing paint needed, more sanding, more patching, even wood replacement and priming add to the cost. In year 5 or 6, you generally will see the color changes that most people notice, and by year 7 or 8, it just looks totally unacceptable.
To always have your home look new and avoid large repainting costs, plan to paint just the southern exposed and/or open grain wood in three to four years from the last completion date, and realizea dramatic cost savings. Typically,spending only 10% to 15% of your original painting costs in year 3 will greatly extend the life of your exterior paint. This will make your entire house look new. Successful businesses understand this concept and budget accordingly. It actually saves money while keeping everything looking tiptop. At the end of your project, we will identify any future areas that may need additional attention in three years and provide you with a complete proposal.
