What Are The Benefits of Using Professional House Painters?

When you paint the outside of your home yourself, you risk making mistakes. While a quality paint job increases your home’s curb appeal, a bad one does the opposite. You get these benefits when you hire professional exterior house painters:

Professional Results

A professional paint job adds value to your home and lasts longer than an amateur paint job. Professionals also save you time and money.

With so many exterior house paint colors, it can be hard to pick one. We have experience with painting all types of Massachusetts residences, and we can advise you on the best color and paint type for your budget.

Safety

Painting involves high surfaces and specialized equipment. Our team has the proper training and certifications for exterior painting services. We have everything we need to prevent damage and disruption.

Exterior House Painters Who Emphasizes Preparation for a Magnificent Finish

Prep work comes first in a quality painting project. Before we apply paint to your exterior surface, we:

• Clean the surface with power washing and scraping
• Check to see if the area needs sanding or patching
• Inspect the surface for rot, mold, or other issues

Our thorough process ensures beautiful and lasting results. We inspect the work area first, which may uncover hidden problems. In professional exterior painting services, we know that a solid start is the key to a fantastic finish.

When we complete the job, we check for flakes, debris, and chips. We also clean up the area and leave it the way we found it.

Exterior painting preparation helps everything go smoothly. We plan well and keep you informed so that you can have peace of mind.

House Painting Tips

No matter the size of your house, painting it is a big undertaking. These exterior house painting tips will help you get the best result:

• Buy quality tools. While you want to save money, you don’t want a cheap-looking home. Invest in a few synthetic-bristle brushes with different edges. You should also buy a heavy-duty roller, paint cans, and a bucket.
• Watch the weather. If you paint in direct sunlight, the heat will dry your paint too fast. You also don’t want to paint when you have a risk of high winds or rain. Check the paint label to see the recommended environment.
• Check for lead. If you have an old home or building, you may want to get a lead test kit to avoid exposing yourself or others to lead paint.
• Clean the exterior. Dirt and grime will ruin your fresh paint. Use a cleaner that works on mildew or hire a professional power washer.

When you hire us for exterior painting services, we’ll take care of all of these items for you.

How to Choose Exterior House Paint Colors

Your interior colors typically reflect your style. With the outside of your home, you also have to keep in mind:

• Durability
• The colors of your patio or other accents
• Trim color
• Neighborhood
• Climate

When choosing exterior house paint colors, plan to invest in a premium brand that resists stains and weather. If you have brick or stone near your home, try picking one of their underlying tones. You can choose an opposing color instead of a complementary one—for example, a warm color to contrast with a cooler tone.

Try using an online tool that will recommend coordinating or matching colors. These tools help you visualize the finished look with different color combos.

Finally, buy several test paints. Make sure you test colors on different sides of your home to see them in various lightings. Once you see the colors on your home, you can make a better judgment on which one looks best.
