Our Commercial Exterior Preparation & Painting Process

Proper preparation is key to achieving high-quality commercial painting results. Before painting the exterior of your commercial property, we follow our tried and true process for prepping all surfaces that are to be painted.

Step one in this process is to do a “pre-paint walkthrough” during our inspection we are identifying any areas that need repairs and touch-ups.

Step two and the inspection phase is complete. It’s time to perform any repairs that may be needed, such as replacing rotted wood or siding, filling holes from previous signs or fixtures, etc. Sanding and smoothing all out repaired surfaces to match existing finishes. This is extremely important in achieving that smooth beautiful final result from your new paint job!

Step three is primer. Priming before painting is very critical because it creates a surface that the new paint will bond to. If this step is skipped, then your painting project can be less effective in protecting against moisture penetration and peeling of the final coat. Not priming all surfaces prior to painting can severely reduce the life of your paint job. We always use a high-quality primer that ensures maximum protection.

Now that all preparation steps are done it’s time to “Paint”. First comes the base coats, we always start painting from the bottom up. This helps to avoid lap marks that can result from starting at a higher elevation and working downward, as well as applying too much paint on those areas first causing puddles which can cause poor adhesion of topcoats later in the project.

In some cases, more than one base coat of paint is needed before the final coat. We always wait to apply our topcoat until after the base coat is completely dry. This is usually 24 hours or more depending on the type of paint used and environmental conditions such as humidity, temperature, etc. The topcoat finish can be a flat, satin sheen, semi-gloss blacktop enamel with an optional decorative flake or pearlescent effect that reflects light to add depth and character to your new paint job!

After the topcoat has been applied we then do another full inspection and walkthrough and make any final touch-ups. Our painting pros will then walk the project one more time with you to ensure you are happy with the final results.
