Exterior Services
We begin with a thorough inspection at which time we familiarize ourselves with the scope of work to be completed. After inspection of the work, a written proposal is provided to ensure exact cost. Platinum Painting strives to provide the highest quality at the best possible prices. Paint colors can be matched or selected from a wide variety of samples. Platinum Painting uses only high quality coatings. Regardless of the exterior paint option you choose, we complete the following "Industry Best-In-Class" steps to ensure a quality paint job on your home
Areas Served

Power Washing
An important step prior to painting. All homes have a layer
of dirt, mildew, etc., that can only be removed by 2,000 to 3,000 psi
power washing. The quality of the job depends on us painting the cleanest
surface possible.
Scraping/Repairs
All loose paint must be removed. While the joy is not in the
scraping step, you will appreciate it when the job is complete! We do this
the old-fashioned way by hand with scraping knives and wire brushes. We do
this because it is important to have a tight, primable surface. While we are
closely looking at your exterior surface, if you need any repairs prior to
painting, we have skilled personnel to handle most minor repairs.
Priming
Now that
the clean surface is exposed, it is time to prime the wood so that it can
"accept" the new paint to be applied. We use premium exterior primers to
prepare the surface providing a sound foundation for adhesion of the new
finish coat. Primer is also used to seal stains as well.
Caulking/Glazing
To reduce the flow of air in "typical" areas, we caulk all
windows and entrances. All major wood joints are caulked as well. We use
45-yr rated caulk. Homes with wood windows will have loose glazing removed
and replaced.
Painting
Now here's
where we take pride in our work, because we do not cut corners on the
quality of your paint and the paint job. We use only
premium paints like Sherwin Williams or a paint of your choice. Depending on
the size and scope of the job, we cannot guarantee that the exterior paint
process will take place on consecutive days, however, we allot a one-week
time period to complete an exterior project.
