Exterior Sanding and Painting in Winnipeg, Manitoba
Woodhaven Beauty
The homeowner of this beautiful early 1900's home contacted us in the spring of 2019. It was time for them, and their home, to receive some much needed attention. This home had been well cared for over the years but it was time for a little extra attention to bring the house back to its' former glory. Our client completed some required repairs in 2019 which made 2020 the year for painting! This would not be a basic scrape and paint.
This project required the skills of our entire team. Our Lead Painter Igor & his apprentice Rajbir washed, scraped and power sanded every inch of the home to identify & remove loose or peeling paint. Given that it would be difficult to restore all areas to a perfectly smooth surface and stay within our client's' budget, a plan was agreed upon. Thorough paint preparation was done on the entire home with extra attention paid to the finished look of the painted surfaces where our clients and their guests might see the home more often. In this case, extra attention meant using power tools, & time, to remove as much old, uneven and cracked lumpy paint. The resulting smooth or smoother surface will look great and last longer as well.
Carpentry was necessary in many areas to replace rotted wood, missing wood trims and even a couple broken screens & panes of glass. Our Carpenter Ihor spent many hours gently removing rotted or damaged wood and replacing with new wood to match the previous design & profile. The preparation formed the base for the new colours selected.
The whole home was primed using a high build waterborne bonding primer and two full coats of Benjamin Moore Regal Low Lustre and Satin.
With the assistance of our Design Consultant Carla, the house has a stunning new Colour Scheme!
