I had a great painter who took the time getting my house ready to be painted. Of course, he started with a power wash that would remove any dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and old paint, ensuring a clean and dry underlying layer for the new paint to adhere properly.
My house does not have stucco. It has siding and will be 30 years old in four months, October 2025. Until now none of the siding had been replaced. Siding needs to be replaced when damaged or deteriorated due to rot, moisture, warping or structural weakness. This is a crucial step in preparing the house for painting, as any underlying issues can affect the durability and appearance of the new paint. Looking at my pictures you see that I did need some siding replaced.
Also important is the silicon caulking that he used to protect my house from the elements, to improve paint adhesion, and to create a smoother, more professional finish. Caulking seals gaps and cracks which prevents water from seeping into the walls and causing damage. It also fills uneven areas for a more uniform surface.
After removing any nails, he either caulked to seal the hole and prevent water damage or he used wood filler to fill the hole and create a smoother surface. Over the nail heads on the siding, he used caulk or filler to prevent rust, to seal the holes, and to ensure a smooth finish. Now you know why, for a day or two, my house looked like it had “chicken pox”!!!
He did two coats of paint. In the first, he used a combination of spraying and then immediately rolling-back with a roller, a painting technique used to achieve a smooth, uniform finish, especially on porous surfaces. Spraying provides quick and efficient coverage, while back-rolling enhances paint adhesion, ensures uniform application, and helps to smooth out any irregularities or imperfections. For the second coat he paint sprayed again.
AND NOW THE COLOR
Wow, I will say that I was overwhelmed when I first saw the paint on my house, especially the darker color. I was a bit taken aback. It is difficult to see a paint chip and then visualize the color on the house. Because if this, I bought small cans of paint and painted swatches that I adhered to the house. I then painted a larger amount on the back of a placemat and looked at that for a while in order to be sure of my choices. I even had a rendering done, and it looked good, so with that I went ahead with my color choices: Dunn Edwards, Silver Bullet and Eventide.
I do like it now, but I was a bit shocked at first. To be sure it was painted the correct color, I placed the paint swatches and the placemat that I had painted months ago on the newly painted house . . . and the color is an exact match. The difference is that I purchased flat paint rather than paint with sheen, like the semi-gloss on my house. Paint with sheen appears brighter in sunlight because it reflects more light. Wow, when the afternoon sun hits my house the grayish-purple paint (Eventide) on the front door, garage door, and façade above the garage is VERY bright and looks more purple. It’s more muted and looks grayer in the morning when the sun doesn’t hit the house. I sure hope my neighbors are not unhappy with the color combination. It is different.
Now that I have a new roof, new fascia, new flashing, new gutters, new paint colors, and new awnings on the way, I guess I better look into new HVAC. Mine will be 30 years old in four months!!!

The cabin deck is over 40 years old, the whole thing needs to go, but we can't do that at the moment, instead we spent a couple of afternoons over Easter replacing the worst of the worst of the rotten boards, all told just about 200 linear feet. We were proud of doing this on our own having never done this kind of thing before, and a great place to start/learn because it is temporary until the whole deck can be R&R'd. Maybe we'll build that too - I ain't scared.
