Wellington houses face severe weather and wind and it’s important to look after the paint so it won’t be damaged. The house must be repainted about every 10 years. Do not leave it until it’s too late.
Whiteplus painters will give you all the details that outline what the requirements are and what products will be used. It could be that the paint system is in poor condition that it needs stripping back to bare timber. This is usually the case with the joinery, particularly windowsills that have a dark trim colour. If the weatherboard’s condition isn’t too bad then it means the house might need a good washing, sanding, and repainting. Our Wellington painters will give you a rundown of our job specs on the condition of the house’s main substrates and our recommendations.
Weatherboard houses take lots of time in preparation for painting. If the house has not been painted for years and is already crocodiling – when the old enamel’s first coat of paint is embrittling and the top coat is cracking and wrinkling – then stripping is recommended.
Dark colours on weatherboard houses and timber joinery, particularly when previously painted white, must be avoided. Painting the house a dark colour when it used to have a light colour can cause the new paint to bubble and the timber might even shrink and gaps might open up. The timer has residual moisture and will heat up more this time, so it will draw the moisture out of the timber and cause the paint to bubble. Pop them and water might dribble out. Light colours heat and preserve your paint system much longer than dark ones.
