​

Protect

Our painters cover ground areas, plants, and parked vehicles with drop cloths to shield them from paint drips and overspray. If boom lift equipment must be driven on your lawn, we will lay down plywood to prevent tire damage. Caution tape, barriers, and wet paint signs are used as needed to keep your family safe. Any leftover paint chips are collected and properly disposed of.

​

Prepare

All exterior surfaces are scraped, sanded, or chemically stripped to remove loose paint and create a smooth foundation. Rust is removed as needed, and most homes are power-washed to eliminate dirt and mildew buildup and create better paint adhesion. Our team of skilled professionals will also perform light carpentry repairs as needed.

​

Apply

All joints receive siliconized caulking to prevent moisture from penetrating behind wood. To ensure proper adhesion, rust-resistant primers and industrial finishes are applied to metal surfaces and oil primer is applied to bare wood prior to the top coat. As residential building painters, we use a variety of techniques such as brushing, rolling, and spraying to guarantee a flawless and professional paint finish for your home's exterior.

Why is important exterior Painting ?

 

Exterior house paint is important for a multitude of reasons that go far beyond just aesthetics, especially here in Weymouth, Massachusetts, where our homes face a unique set of environmental challenges. Here's a breakdown of its significance:

 

1. Protection from the Elements:

• Weather Resistance: This is paramount in Weymouth. Our homes endure harsh New England weather, including scorching summer sun, heavy rain, snow, ice, and strong winds, often carrying salt spray from the nearby coast. Quality exterior paint acts as a durable shield against these elements, preventing moisture intrusion, fading from UV rays, and damage from wind-driven debris.  
  
  
   

• Water Damage Prevention: Moisture is a major enemy of homes. Exterior paint helps seal the siding material (wood, vinyl, stucco, etc.), preventing water from seeping in and causing rot, mold, mildew, and structural damage. This is particularly crucial in our humid summers and during periods of heavy rain.  
  
  
   

• Pest Deterrence: A good paint job can make it more difficult for insects and other pests to penetrate the exterior walls and establish themselves within your home.  
  
   

2. Preservation and Longevity of Materials:

• Extending Siding Lifespan: Just like sunscreen protects your skin, exterior paint protects your siding materials from the damaging effects of the sun and moisture. This helps prolong the life of your wood, vinyl, or other exterior surfaces, saving you significant replacement costs down the line.  
  
  
   

• Preventing Decay and Degradation: For wooden homes, paint is essential in preventing rot, warping, and cracking caused by moisture fluctuations and UV exposure. For other materials, it helps maintain their integrity and appearance over time.  
  
   

3. Enhancing Curb Appeal and Property Value:

• First Impressions: The exterior of your home is the first thing visitors, potential buyers, and even you see every day. A fresh, well-maintained paint job significantly enhances curb appeal and creates a positive first impression.  
  
  
   

• Increasing Market Value: When it comes time to sell, a well-painted exterior can significantly increase your home's perceived value and make it more attractive to buyers. It signals that the home has been well-cared for.  
  
   

• Pride of Ownership: A beautifully painted exterior contributes to a sense of pride in your home and the neighborhood.  
  
   

4. Improved Energy Efficiency (to a lesser extent):

• Reflective Properties: While not a primary reason, lighter-colored paints can reflect some sunlight, potentially helping to keep your home cooler in the summer and reducing air conditioning costs slightly.  
  
   

5. Early Detection of Problems:

• Surface Inspection: The process of preparing for and applying exterior paint often involves a close inspection of the siding. This can help you identify potential problems like cracks, loose boards, or signs of water damage early on, allowing for timely repairs before they escalate.  
  
   

In the context of Weymouth, MA:

The coastal environment here makes exterior paint even more critical. The salt air can be corrosive to certain materials, and the frequent changes in weather demand a durable and protective paint system. Investing in quality exterior paint and professional application is a wise decision for Weymouth homeowners to safeguard their investment, maintain their home's beauty, and protect it from the unique challenges of our local climate.  

 

 

In short, exterior house paint is not just a cosmetic upgrade; it's a vital layer of defense for your home against the elements, helping to preserve its structural integrity, enhance its appearance, and protect its value for years to come in Weymouth and beyond.
