Preparing your home for painting
Preparation is key to achieving a flawless finish. Here are the steps we take as your Sunshine Coast exterior house painter:
- Inspection: We start by inspecting your home’s exterior for any damage. Cracks, holes, lime, moisture or rotten wood need to be repaired before painting.
- Cleaning: A clean surface is essential for the paint to adhere properly. We pressure wash your home to remove dirt, mildew, and old paint.
- Surface preparation: We fill all gaps and cracks with M40 high flex gap filler along with filling any defects on the to be painted substrates. We also apply a high-quality sealer to all patches to ensure a smooth finish.
Choosing the right paint
The Queensland climate can be harsh, with intense sun and occasional heavy rain. It’s crucial to choose a paint that can withstand these conditions:
- UV-resistant paints: These paints are designed to resist fading and chalking caused by the sun’s UV rays.
- Waterproof and mildew-resistant paints: To protect your home from moisture and mildew, especially during the rainy season.
- High quality brands: We use a trusted brand – Haymes Paint, that are known for their durability and performance in coastal climates.
The painting process
Our process ensures a beautiful, long-lasting finish:
- Priming: Applying a primer helps the paint adhere better and provides a uniform base for the topcoat.
- Painting: We use the right tools and techniques while following the PDS (Product Data Sheet) to ensure accurate paint application. The PDS outlines the substrates that will bond with the paint and the recommended methods for applying it effectively.
- Final Touches: After the paint has dried, we inspect the work and make any necessary touch-ups to ensure perfection.
Maintaining your newly painted exterior
Once your home’s exterior is freshly painted, it’s important to maintain it to keep it looking great:
- Regular Cleaning: Wash your home’s exterior every few months to remove dirt and mildew. Please refer to the PDS (Product Data Sheet) as some cleaning products can be harmful to the coatings.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect for signs of wear and tear, and house movement, and address any issues promptly.
- Touch-Ups: Small touch-ups can prevent larger problems and extend the life of your paint job.
