Hoover Alabama House Painting And Wood Repair

Over a period of time, the weather elements will begin to degrade the wood on the exterior of your home if your home is not properly caulked and does not have a solid coat of quality paint on it. This will eventually lead to rotten wood on your home and if left unchecked could result in a very costly repair bill. That is why it is always a good idea to repair any wood at the first sign of problems. Oftentimes if the damaged or rotten area is small enough, the rotten area can be cleaned out and then filled using a wood epoxy, sanded and then repainted. But usually the best solution to completely remove the rotten wood and replace it. In the posted pictures is a house that we recently completed a repair and exterior house painting project on located in Hoover, Al. On this job all of the trim on the chimney was completely removed due to damage and replaced with new wood. In addition, we also removed approximately 200 feet of damaged hard board siding and replaced it with new siding. Once installed, the new wood was properly primed and caulked to prevent water from penetrating beneath the wood. By doing this and also using quality materials and paint, this homeowner will have long-lasting, beautiful finish which will also provide a barrier of protection for his house from the elements. It is a good idea to conduct a semi-annual inspection of your home to check for any sign of rot or damage. Also, check all of the caulking on your home during this inspection to make certain that it is in good condition. Since water is number one cause for wood decay, you want to be sure that any area where water may penetrate is properly sealed and protected.
