Exterior Services
Substrate-specific systems engineered for our climate.
Spray + backbrush application and moisture defense — your home's exterior deserves more than just a coat of paint.
Methodology
We evaluate every exterior surface — substrate type, existing coating condition, moisture indicators, UV exposure patterns, and repair needs. Cedar, masonry, composite, or fiber cement — each gets a documented assessment.
Sanding, scraping, and filling aren’t just steps — they are the foundation. We document every prep task in your scope so you know exactly what’s happening under the topcoat. No shortcuts, no surprises.
Every coat is manually integrated into the surface grain through spray + backbrush technique, ensuring maximum adhesion and a uniform editorial finish that holds up to Northern Michigan weather.
Alkaline-resistant primer, spray-applied topcoat with backbrush for full profile penetration.
Moisture management is critical. Penetrating primers for bare wood, bonding primers for previously painted.
Factory-primed surfaces need proper adhesion prep. Sand, spot-prime, two full topcoats.
Breathable, elastomeric coatings that flex with seasonal movement. Crack repair first.
DTM primers for adhesion on aluminum, steel, and wrought iron. Rust conversion where needed.
Low-porosity surfaces that need bonding primers and specific topcoat chemistry.
Full drop cloth and plastic protection for all plantings, beds, and lawn areas.
Decks, patios, walkways, and driveways covered before any spray work begins.
Windows, doors, light fixtures, and hardware masked with precision tape and plastic.
Modern Transparency

“The attention to our Tudor trim was remarkable. Every reveal, every profile — handled with precision. The exterior looks better than when the house was built.”
