When Is It Time to Paint?

Fading or peeling paint, chalky siding, and mildew can all lead to a less than desirable curb appeal for your home.  If you are experiencing any of these issues, it's time to call us.

Fading Paint

Over time and with exposure to the elements, all paint fades.  Sides of houses that are exposed to sunlight, wind, and rain will fade faster than the sides of houses that are in the shade.

To address this problem, Dan Brady Painting and Wood Restoration uses only the highest quality paints and stains.  Although all brands will fade over time when exposed to direct sunlight, the less expensive paints and stains fade much faster than the high quality products we use.

Peeling & Cracking Paint

All woods expand and contract, often causing brittle paint to crack and peel. To tackle this, we remove any brittle or cracked paint prior to painting your house.  Then we apply an 100% acrylic latex coating that is able to expand and contract with changing temperatures so the coating won’t crack or peel.

Chalky Siding

As paint breaks down, the pigment “chalks,” or separates, from the paint's binder.  Excessive chalking can lead to colors fading, paint erosion, and stains.  Cheap paint, poor surface preparation, and exposure to harsh elements are often the culprits.

To address this, we'll clean and pressure wash your home prior to applying the coating.  Pressure washing removes the chalky residue and gives the coating a stable surface to adhere to.

Mildew

Causes of mildew vary. Neighboring homes with mildew problems can act as a breeding ground, spreading the fungus to your house.  Shrubbery too close to your home can also provide an attractive place for mildew to grow on your siding. Leaks around your roof, chimney, windows, and doors can trap water behind your siding, and when the moisture tries to escape, mildew forms.

We'll kill any mildew on your house with a bleach and water mixture before we apply any coating.
