Our House Painting & Commercial Painting Process
Hobbs Painting takes the time and effort to make sure your custom painting project gives you great looks and lasting protection. Our meticulous, proven process includes:
Preparation
Before we ever take a single brush stroke we fully prepare all surfaces to ensure longevity and great looks.
* Set up and protect — Cover or move furniture, floors and equipment to create a clean, safe working environment.
* Scrape — Remove loose paint with hand scrapers then re-scrape after power washing to ensure a tight, secure substrate.
* Clean/Wash — Power wash surfaces to be painted. Use mild bleach solution to kill algae/mildew.
* Sand — Feather sand edges where scraping has produced a ridge.
* Prime — Spot prime raw and rusted surfaces using the appropriate primers.
* Glaze and patch — Replace missing and loose window glazing. Fill large holes or voids with appropriate patching compounds.
* Prime — Re-prime patched areas to ensure a properly sealed substrate.
* Caulk — Caulk doorframes and windows, or wherever moisture can potentially enter and result in damage.
Painting
Our expert painters use professional techniques and tools to give you a clean, even finish that protects and adds character to your space.
