Why Do You Need Exterior Painting?
If you still hesitate to paint or not to paint, here’s the list of reasons why you should contact us:
Exterior home painting would intensify the representation of a building and leave a lasting impression on every visitor.
Exterior painting contractors execute a detailed inspection before the painting process begins. So, we can find wall problems and solve them.
The surface of a building loses a part of the resistance in years. With repainting, you add an extra layer of safety and enlarge the lifespan of the construction.
A lovely outer aesthetics is essential for future sales. If the exterior looks fresh and sharp, the actual price of a building will rise.
Common Types Of Exterior Paints
It’s significant to remember that exterior paint has to possess protective features. So you should pay attention to the ingredients as well. TOLOKA General Contractor&Builder will help you with a hard color-picking decision. However, we are sure that every client must be aware of the exterior paint diversity and common paint types.
Mostly, only two types of paints are appropriate for exterior usage:
Latex exterior paint
Many exterior house painting companies offer only this option as it’s easier to work with. Manufacturers have improved latex exterior paints a lot to make them as durable as oil-based ones. Besides, these paints dry quickly and have resistance to the influence of direct sunlight. Acrylic latex is reported as the highest-quality latex paint. But customers have to keep in mind that a new coat of latex paint cannot be put on an old coat of oil-based paint.
Oil-based paint
Home exterior paint ideas with oil paints are famous nowadays. These paints have durability and extreme water resistance. It’s an excellent choice for stained surfaces, woods, or metals. The cover painted with oil-based paints won’t lose beauty in years. One minor disadvantage is the longer drying time compared to other paint types.
If you have already picked up the paint type, it’s time to move to the paint finish. There are three main exterior paint finishes:
Flat finish
The porosity of this finish type helps to hide wall defects. It also doesn’t reflect light. Usually, older buildings are painted with a flat finish. It’s not recommended for horizontal and highly-touched surfaces, like doors, windows, railing, or floors. So, it’s better for exterior walls.
Satin finish
This subtle sheen strengthens the home exterior paint colors. Satin finish can be maintained with regular pressure washing. It has a more extensive lifespan than a flat finish. However, it’s still not hard enough for high-traffic areas. Only specific products, like a deck and porch satin paint, can cope with everyday use.
Gloss finish
Meet the most robust finish among all, the gloss finish. Its durability is excellent, but surfaces covered with a gloss finish may look plastic. This paint finish reflects sunlight and will emphasize imperfections. We advise using gloss finish for doors and door frames, windows, railings, etc. That’s how you’ll get a distinguished exterior detail. Another feature of this finish is smoothness. So, if you paint the floor or steps with it, they will be slippery. Floor paint is required for this.
