Preparation

Proper preparation is key to achieving a professional finish. Inspect the fascia, siding, gutters, and windows for damage or needed repairs. Clean all surfaces thoroughly to remove dirt, mildew, and loose paint.

  • Fascia and Siding: Clean these areas with a pressure washer. Scrape off any peeling paint and sand down rough spots.
  • Gutters: Clean the gutters inside and out. Sand any rust spots and ensure they are secure.
  • Windows: Clean the frames and sills. Remove old caulk and reapply where necessary.

Priming

Applying a primer ensures better adhesion of the paint and a longer-lasting finish.

  • Fascia and Siding: Use Sherwin Williams Multi-Purpose Latex Primer.
  • Gutters: Use a metal primer if your gutters are metal.
  • Windows: Apply primer to the frames and sills.
