Painting a House Exterior - PRO tips

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Another tip - when you finish roller painting for the day, throw the used roller cover away and start with a new one in the morning (keep the roller handle). Cleaning a roller is an awful job and with the money you'll be saving by doing the job yourself you'll have plenty of money to buy a couple of extra roller covers and you'll save a few hours of work.
Painting a House Exterior - PRO tips is a video that gives great information on how to paint the outside of a house.

    No problem, you can hire a helper who knows how to paint and he/she can do the high sections and you can do the lower sections. Even pressure washing the house will make it look very good. Perhaps start off with pressure washing - wet all the walls with water using a hosepipe and let them sit for half an hour to loosen the dirt. Then pressure wash the walls to take off the dirt, just follow the instructions in the video. It's very easy and good fun if you don't mind getting wet. 😄 I'm sure you'll be well pleased with how good it looks. Good luck, Don.

    all those splochy spots after the house starts fading oh goodness not to mention the ununiformed rolling skills but atleast it was pressure washed that so it prevents future peeling but the money is worth having a prossional because the cause of a homeowner attempting will leave unsatisfaction with drips of paint on the floor not to mention if they spill a five gallon bucket just call a pro unless you are a natural

    that's how a professional does a job,I would probably use very long extensions to do the top of the house though,rather than risk being paralysed for life by using a really tall ladder!

    Unfortunately you can't get into high corners or do edges with a long extension. You have to get up there. If you're afraid or not competent, It's probably best for you to employ someone who's able to do the job without hurting themselves.

    Roller extensions are great and very effective. Unfortunately you have to use a ladder to do the edging, Most painters roll the area while they're up the ladder. It's easier to see what needs to be done when you're up close to the wall and light is not reflecting down at you. But I love extensions and use them as much as possible and they are mentioned at 5'24" of this video.
