Behind the Scenes: On-Site Video Interview with CHCH Morning Live!
At 2Gals ProPainting, we recently had the incredible opportunity to share our expertise in an on-site video interview with the esteemed television show CHCH Morning Live! Our owner, Renee, and our talented crew were thrilled to discuss the intricacies involved in an exterior painting project, from start to finish. Today, we're excited to give you an exclusive glimpse into the process and valuable tips for a successful exterior house painting experience!
Prep Work: The Foundation of a Stunning Finish
Before picking up our brushes, we understand the significance of thorough prep work. To achieve a flawless and long-lasting result, our team begins with these essential steps:
- Pressure Washing Siding and Brick: Cleaning the surface is crucial for optimal paint adhesion. We meticulously pressure wash the siding and brick to remove dirt, mold, and any loose paint.
- Debris Removal: A clean canvas is vital for a smooth paint application. We ensure all debris, cobwebs, and loose materials are removed before proceeding.
- Choosing the Right Type of Paint: The right paint selection plays a significant role in your project's success. We consider factors like the home's exterior material, climate conditions, and your aesthetic preferences to recommend the best paint type.
Other Essential Tips for Exterior House Painting
- Weather Matters: While we strive to accommodate your schedule, we carefully plan our projects around favorable weather conditions. Painting in moderate temperatures and avoiding extreme humidity ensures optimal paint drying and longevity.
- Surface Preparation is Key: Besides pressure washing, we also inspect the exterior for any imperfections. Repairing cracks, holes, and damaged surfaces ensures a smooth and professional finish.
- Priming for Perfection: For lasting results, we apply a primer coat before the final paint application. Primer enhances adhesion, covers stains, and improves paint durability.
- Proper Painting Techniques: Our experienced crew employs professional techniques like using high-quality brushes and rollers for an even coat. We take pride in our attention to detail and precision.
- Protecting Landscaping: We respect your property, and that includes protecting your landscaping from paint spills or splatters. We use drop cloths and take care during the entire painting process.
Customer Satisfaction is Our Priority!
Throughout the project, we communicate openly with our clients to ensure their vision becomes a reality. We value your input and are dedicated to meeting your expectations, from colour selection to the final touch-ups. Your satisfaction is our ultimate goal!
