Last week we had gorgeous weather which made for great painting conditions in central NY. This customer was a referral from a tudor home we painted across the street last summer on Berkley. In this case we needed to fix a previous painters mistakes who did not prime or put enough prep work into the surface. This caused the paint, which is Aura by Benjamin Moore, to fail faster than it should have. It was obvious after walking around the house and scraping some test spots there was no primer applied and the cleaning was sub-par leaving chips and dust mixed in with this previous painters finish application. In order to make it right we hand scrape the failed paint off, vacuum the surfaces, lightly sand, vacuum again, oil prime bare wood and apply two coats of Ben Moore Aura. We used a lift to access the steeper parts of the houses siding minimizing any wear and tear on the roof and keeping the painters safe. Here are some pictures of before and after from some rough parts of the home.
