- Trying to tackle this task yourself!
- Choosing inferior paint and preparation products.
- Improper and/or incomplete preparation.
- Choosing the wrong Contractor!
Most home owners should not try to tackle painting their own home. Exterior painting is a much bigger job than it appears from the ground. Qualified painters have long ladders and even scaffolding in some cases. Plus, renting all the sprayer, compressor, hoses and other equipment is a hassle that is not worth it.
Many home owners choose the wrong exterior paint or try to save money on cheap paint. Imaging having to do the job over again in a year (or less!) if the paint does not stick correctly or starts to peel, bubble and blister. Paint is available in many chemical and pigment combinations. All-Tex has, over many years of experience, chosen the best available paint on the market...Sherwin Williams Duration! In addition, the correct primer must be selected for the best adherence.
Due to the number of years of experience, All-Tex knows how important preparation is to a quality, long lasting paint job. There is a lot of elbow grease that goes in to scraping, sanding and prepping the surfaces. Imaging trying to prep a 3 story dormer with the wrong equipment. If you can't get up there eye level with the problem areas, there will be no way to prep it so it will protect the surface and keep moisture from getting into the nooks and crannies. Proper caulking with the right product is essential.
Often, home owners mistakenly select a painter on price alone. This is an important protective coating that will help prevent decay, moisture penetration and help retain the value of your property. A qualified contractor, like All-Tex, will have many years of experience, a great reputation in the market, references and a long warranty. You want the job done right the first time.
