Exterior Painting
With any kind of paint job but particularly exterior work, the preparation is very important. A professional uses the best methods of cleaning an outside surface depending on the material and condition without causing any damage in the process. After being cleaned and dried any loose paint must be removed and the entire area scraped as needed. Any gaps are sealed and the proper primer is applied and once the surface is up to scratch the best paint for the job is applied.
Interior painting
Any job taken on in the inside of the house first requires proper protection and covering of the furniture and flooring. In a similar fashion to exterior painting the walls are prepared with the use of fillers and sanding to create a perfectly smooth wall. All surfaces are cleaned of dirt and grease before primer or paint is applied. The finish will depend on both the needs and desire of the customer who can chose from a wide range including flat, matte, satin, eggshell and semi gloss to name a few.
Lift work
Lift work involves painting and renovation work that involves the use of lifts, cranes or scaffolding. This is specialist work that requires health and safety training as well as skilled machinery operators. A company that offers this kind of service is able to take on wider variety of projects involving tall buildings, and will most likely have a training program in place as well.
Power washing
Power washing is sometimes required as a method of preparing exterior walls for renovation or painting but sometimes it is required simply to clean up the outside walls to improve the aesthetics of a building. A wooden or vinyl sided house can benefit greatly from being cleaned up with the use of a power washer. Not only will it look better but also it can prevent deterioration of the paint or wood as a result of mildew. Replacing rotten wood can be a costly business so it is certainly worthwhile having the sides of your house power washed from time to time. Low pressure is used in many instances to remove dirt and mildew but not do damage to substrates such as older wood or shingles.
Deck work
Deck work requires carpentry skills as well as knowledge of treating and painting wood. Rotten areas can be replaced, loose areas secured and proper screws used to replace old ones. Decking can also be cleaned to bring back its original colour and treated with stains or sealers to prevent or reduce deterioration, and enhance the beauty of the wood! All of which will help to rejuvenate your original decking so that it looks as good as new.
