Exterior Painting in Seattle: A Full Transformation!

Spring is here, sum­mer is com­ing, and it’s exte­ri­or paint­ing time in Seattle!

As we kick off our out­door house paint­ing sea­son, we’re all about shar­ing tips, tricks, info, and project inspi­ra­tion. Some­times it helps to see some­thing tan­gi­ble, right in a Seat­tle neigh­bor­hood near you. Pin­ter­est, Insta­gram, and HGTV are all well and good, but there’s no sub­sti­tute for project ideas that hit clos­er to home. 

As an exam­ple, let’s take a look at this local exte­ri­or repaint. 

It’s a nice prop­er­ty, with pret­ty lines and attrac­tive fea­tures, but our client was ready for a more con­tem­po­rary look. One good approach is to sim­pli­fy the palette, bring­ing more of a neu­tral uni­for­mi­ty, rather than hav­ing dif­fer­ent col­ors and tex­tures all hap­pen­ing at once.

A clos­er look at how we paint a house in Seattle

Here’s how we do it, and then we’ll show you those awe­some before/​after shots:

• An esti­ma­tor will come to your home to chat through your ideas, look at your prop­er­ty, and take notes and measurements.
• You’ll receive a clear, detailed esti­mate that includes the entire job scope.
• Once approved, we’ll sched­ule your project.
• We put a heavy empha­sis on job site prepa­ra­tion: mask­ing, pro­tect­ing sur­round­ing sur­faces, and con­tain­ing the space.
• Next, sur­face prepa­ra­tion! We clean, repair, sand, patch, and prime as needed. 
• Final­ly, we apply those beau­ti­ful top­coats. Every step mat­ters, with spe­cial empha­sis on sur­face prepa­ra­tion. Cre­at­ing a strong, sol­id foun­da­tion makes all the dif­fer­ence and sets your paint up for peak performance.
