Classic CT Colonial
Project #1 · Brookfield, CT · Full exterior repaint with our 6-step prep protocol — soft-wash, hand-scrape, wood repair, caulk, two coats premium paint, walk-through.
Real exterior repaints in Brookfield, Connecticut. Premium prep, premium paint, real homes.
A great "after" photo is the easy part. The reason these results hold up 10+ years in Brookfield's climate is everything that happened in the prep stage — most of which the homeowner never sees. Brookfield's Candlewood Shores lakefront homes face waterline humidity that accelerates wood rot — annual fascia inspection is part of our maintenance plan here.
Exterior paint doesn't fail because of the paint — it fails because of the prep underneath it. Here's everything we do, in order, before paint touches your home.
Every exterior surface gets cleaned of dirt, pollen, mildew, moss, chalking, and oxidation before any prep tool touches the wood. The single biggest reason cheap paint jobs peel is that they're painted over contamination.
Every bit of loose or failing paint is hand-scraped off, with edges feathered smooth so the new paint lays down flat instead of in visible ridges.
Rotted trim, fascia, and siding sections replaced with like-for-like material. All bare wood and every spot-primed area gets a high-adhesion primer before topcoat.
Every siding-to-trim seam, window frame, door frame, corner board, and gap gets a tight bead of exterior-grade caulk. Keeps water out and makes the lines look crisp.
Premium paint applied with brush and roller for proper film thickness, with back-brushing to work the paint into the grain. Two full coats — never one heavy coat.
We walk the property with you before calling it done. Anything you flag gets touched up the same day.
