Our Exterior Painting Process in CT
A prep-first, predictable process that prevents peeling and uneven sheen. We lock in scope, surfaces, repairs, and the coating system up front, built for Connecticut weather.
Materials & Sheens for CT Weather
100% acrylic top-coats for strong color stability and fade resistance—paired with the right sheen by surface: low-sheen siding, semi-gloss trim, and satin/semi-gloss doors for a clean, durable finish. We also guide you on classic exterior color that fit CT neighborhoods and look right on your home’s style.
Typical specs:
- Wood (paint): Wash → sand → bonding primer → 100% acrylic topcoats.
- Fiber cement: Wash → masonry/fiber-cement primer → acrylic finish.
- Stucco/masonry: Clean → masonry conditioner/primer → elastomeric/acrylic system.
- Metal: Degrease/sand → anti-corrosive primer → urethane-reinforced enamel.
Power Washing & Priming for Durability
Safe PSI for siding, correct detergents, and proper dry times improve adhesion and finish quality. We match primers to wood, Hardie, vinyl/aluminum, masonry for long-term results.
