Preparation and repairs are essential steps before any painting project to ensure a smooth, long-lasting finish. Proper surface prep—such as cleaning, sanding, and patching holes—not only helps the paint adhere better but also prevents issues like peeling, bubbling, or uneven coverage.
For exterior projects, sealing cracks and applying a quality sealer to your homes exterior walls before painting is especially important. Sealer locks out moisture and improves paint adhesion, helping the topcoat resist harsh weather conditions and UV damage. Chalky walls can also cause new paint to fail prematurely without proper treatment. Addressing repairs and sealing properly creates a solid foundation that enhances both the appearance and durability of the paint job. Skipping these steps may save time upfront but often leads to premature failure and costly rework. Quality painting starts with quality prep.
