Improve the Stucco Work Around Your Home Professionally

Waly Precision Remodeling Home RepaintedIf you need some work done on the exterior of your home, you may start to wonder what stucco is and when you might need to repair stucco at your home.

Stucco is a construction material that is applied wet and then becomes a hard solid. Stucco is used to add a decorative coating or architectural detail to walls and ceilings. It also can be used to cover metal, concrete, or other construction materials. Stucco can be used inside or outside but is more typically applied to a home’s exterior. Stucco is particularly popular in Florida as well as the Southwest of the U.S. and California, according to Angie’s List.

There are several advantages to using stucco around your home:
1. It’s strong.
2. It’s durable.
3. It can be applied to several types of home materials.
4. The color of stucco can be changed to your liking.

Sometimes, the stucco work at your house may need to be repaired. This can be due to water damage, cracks, stains, mildew, or even mold. It’s important to repair stucco before the stucco problem becomes more elaborate and expensive. Stucco damage can affect your home’s appearance and lower the value. You should take a close look at the stucco around your home at least once a year to check for any damage that needs repair. Call a trusted professional if you see anything that looks unusual.

Although you could manage small stucco jobs yourself, Waly Precision Painting and Remodeling strongly recommends hiring a stucco professional to get the job done. At Waly Precision Painting and Remodeling, we have a seasoned stucco professional ready to help you out. We can show you pictures of our previous work, provide references, and give a free estimate.

How to Prepare Your Home Before Painters Arrive

Congratulations! You’ve decided to get your home in Bradenton or Sarasota repainted. We know that takes a commitment, not to mention extra expense and time. However, once the work is done, you’ll home will have a fresh look to enjoy.

To maximize what house painters like Waly Precision Painting and Remodeling can do for you, make sure to do some advance planning. Here are a few tips we like to offer to our Bradenton, Sarasota, and Anna Maria Island clients before we show up and get to work on interior or exterior painting.

  1. Consider paint colors. Do you want to use the exact same color you have now, or something drastically different? That can make a big difference with the cost, so let us know. That way, we can provide the most accurate estimate. We always appreciate customers who do their research in advance regarding colors and paint type. Some even know exactly what color they want and from what paint manufacturer. That said, don’t worry if you’re not ready with a firm idea when we show up. We’re happy to provide our feedback on a good match for your home and obtain some paint samples. One consideration: It sometimes can be hard to match a color exactly, especially if your previous paint job is older or if you don’t know the paint name or manufacturer. Be prepared for some flexibility in those situations.
  2. Know that not all paint estimates are the same. We often will quote for clients a price with the use of medium-quality versus higher-quality paint. Both are great choices, but some clients may opt for higher-quality. For instance, those living near the beach who are having exterior paintwork done often choose higher quality to help protect their home against the elements. Higher-quality paint also can last longer.
  3. Take a close look at your walls. If you have any areas that may need minor repair, be sure to point them out so we can handle them while we’re working. Although we may spot them along the way, it’s always a big help if you show us as well, so we can mark them for our painters.
  4. Get Fido comfortable in a temporary space. When we’re ready to come paint, keep your hounds in a safe area so they can chew on bones and go potty without us stepping in their way. (Bradenton and Sarasota have some great doggy daycare facilities, too.) If you have cats that like to hide or escape, let us know in advance so we can be extra cautious.
  5. Let us handle the heavy lifting. We’re more than happy to move furniture and wall hangings when we arrive (we’ll also use plastic covers/drop cloths when necessary). That said, it can be a time-saver if you move items before we show up. Some customers prefer to move treasured items on their own.
  6. Got questions on where we are in the process? Just ask! One common situation with our work is a client asking why we haven’t done a certain part of the job when in actuality, we’re not at that step yet. The painting process takes some patience. Let us handle the details so we can present you with a beautiful completed job.For Quality and Precision, Call Waly Precision Painting and Remodeling

5 Reasons to Have Your Bradenton or Sarasota Home Repainted

Waly Precision Remodeling Home Repainted

 

Take a look around your house right now. Is it in need of makeover? If you think that updating your home means spending a lot of money for a top-to-bottom new look, think again. One easy start is to have your home repainted. Here are some of the top reasons to have your home interior or exterior repainted.

  1. You’ll add to your home’s value. Repainting your home can potentially make your house worth more if you are going to sell it. If you are putting your home up for sale, it also gives your home an edge over competing homes that have a worn-out look versus something fresh.
  2. You can easily update your home’s style. Let’s say your home color(s) is something that was popular five or ten years ago but not much right now. A repaint is an easy way to modernize your home’s look.
  3. It’s cleaner. A fresh paint job gets rid of wall staining and odors that may hang around with older paint work. It helps you home both smell and look better.
  4. It gives you an ideal time to address wall repairs. If you need minor (or even major) drywall work, an ideal time to get that done is during a repaint. That way, your home is in even better shape, whether you’ll stay in for years to come or if you plan to put it on the market. Your painting company can make recommendations about drywall and related repairs that your home may need.
  5. Sometimes, it’s just time to repaint. An exterior repaint is generally recommended every 10 years (sometimes more frequently depending on the climate), and exterior walls should be repainted every three to seven years, depending on how dirty your home can get. When you reach that point where you know you’d feel better about your home with a paint refresh, give us a call.
