A warm summer day in the east Toronto Beach’s Community as we get ready for some exterior house painting. We were there to complement the Contracting team called Prolific Contractors. They resurfaced two sides of the house with a product called Hardie Board. This is a siding that is made primarily out of concrete, Very durable. When the Contractors put up the siding they painted it on the ground then put it in place. However two sides of the house was still the old siding and needed some cleaning up.
This task involved some very high ladder work. Some areas were at least 25 feet. We have experienced ladder technicians with years of experience in all type of ladder settings. There is a saying called “ladder legs”. What this means is that you don’t get all shaky when you are on the ladder. Ladder work is more psychological than anything else and of course the know how is very important too. To apply the paint to the siding we used brush’s and mini rollers. Spraying here was to risky for the job task. This is a bustling community with house’s very close to each other. Coincidentally around the time to do this project it was quite windy, we also have to take the weather in consideration, of course.
However when it came time to do the back porch area we chose to spray the privacy lattice. This lattice can become very time consuming and often in order to achieve a good finish you need two people one on either side of the fence so you can catch all the dripping paint. Our team then sanded the deck area in order to receive a nice healthy coat of semi transparent stain.
In the front of the house there is some decorative lattice architecture. Here we painted it with one painter on one side and the other painter on the other side. Paint can accumulate in the corners and if not brushed within seconds can leave a unruly finish.
