    Just as with a building project, the process of painting the exterior of a house starts with planning. First, get an idea of what you need. The preparation stage determines what the final result will be. This is the most important stage. Ask any exterior painting contractor, and they will tell you that the prep work is the most important. Painting the exterior of a house without adequate prep work will make all your efforts futile. 

    Fortunately, we are sharing a few tips on how to prepare your house before laying the coat. 

    Step 1: Wash the Wall

    A manicurist will not fill and paint your hands without first washing them thoroughly. Liken this painting project to that of a manicurist. Get a high-pressure machine to use in blasting off the entire building to create a clean slate. The high-pressure wash will remove all dust and stains from the wall. 

    Step 2: Remove Loose Paint Particles

    After washing, leave the walls to dry. Once it dries, you will find loose paint particles hanging off the surface. Using your paint scrapers, remove the loose paint particles to achieve an even surface. 

    Step 3: Seal Cracks

    Some walls have cracks and gaps, depending on age. Your house contracts and expands as the weather changes, resulting in cracks and gaps in the wall. So don’t be shocked to see cracks on your wall surface. Close up these cracks and gaps using a sealant. Remember to use high-quality sealant. Luckily, you can find quality sealant from your local hardware store. 

    Step 4: Sand and Prime the Wall Surface

    This is the last step before coating your wall surface with your preferred paint color. Sanding keeps the wall free from small paint particles and ensures a well-leveled surface. Priming, on the other hand, removes rough patches on the wall, making it smoother for the paint job proper. 

    Step 5: Paint

    After completing all the steps above, then you can start coating the walls with your preferred paint. If there’s an error in the preparatory stage, the exterior paint job might look shabby. To prevent this, learn to perfect the preparatory stage. 

    Get Professional Help

    Some tasks are best left to professionals who have years of experience in the job. Simply because painting the exterior of your house is not an easy task. The slightest mistake when it comes to exterior painting can be costly. You don’t want to take chances by taking the DIY route. Hiring an exterior paint contractor can save you a lot of stress, money, and resources. 

    Worried about finding a team of reliable exterior painting contractors? There are quite a number of factors that can help you in making the right decision. These factors include

    • Years of experience on the job
    • Quality of work – check previous work samples
    • Professionalism
    • Website
    • Budget
    • Success rate
    • Equipment 

    These are some of the qualities to look out for when searching for the right exterior painting contractor.
