The Challenge: 20+ Years Without Maintenance
The windows on this home hadn’t been touched in over two decades, which meant our team had their work cut out for them. Before we could even begin painting, we dedicated a full day to:
- Thorough scraping and sanding to remove decades of flaking paint
- Detail caulking to seal cracks and gaps around the trim
- Taping and masking to ensure clean lines with no overspray
Paint Application: Small Areas, Big Impact
Once prepped, we applied two coats of high-quality exterior paint to every window frame and trim section. Because of the intricate nature of window work, this process required:
- Steady hands and brushwork for clean, even coats
- Attention to corners, sashes, and sill edges
- Maintaining the original aesthetic while upgrading the look and protection
Results
Though it was a time-consuming task, the final outcome made a dramatic impact. The freshly painted windows gave the entire home a cleaner, brighter, and more finished appearance. The homeowner was thrilled to see their aging windows brought back to life with lasting durability and curb appeal.
