ABOUT PAINTING PREPARATIONS. The foundation for any great paint job whether exterior or interior requires a proper and thorough preparation of the surfaces to be painted. We hand scrape, sand and treat the previously painted surfaces to ensure the proper adhesion of the newly applied paint or stain. We take care of your home as if it were our own, by doing the necessary preparation for the highest quality finished product.
