A great paint job starts long before the first coat is applied. Proper preparation is the key to a long-lasting exterior finish. This includes power washing, scraping loose paint, repairing damaged wood, caulking gaps, and priming exposed surfaces.

Skipping prep work leads to peeling, bubbling, and premature fading—meaning you’ll repaint sooner than you should. High-quality preparation ensures the paint bonds properly, looks smoother, and withstands weather for years to come.

This is where professional painters excel: meticulous prep translates to long-term durability.
