Sometimes all it takes is a fresh coat of paint to make you fall in love with your home again.
Owning an older home can be emotionally draining. Constantly coming home to a house with peeling paint, rotten wood, and outdated colors is not something to look forward to. This beautiful Historic Home located in Marriottsville, MD recently received a new standing seam metal roof and shortly after, a full exterior color change repaint. This included repainting all of the previously painted surfaces. Bringing new life back to this old home and easing the emotional burden of exterior maintenance for a few more years!

Light Pole Painting Company

A highly overlooked area of exterior curd appeal are light poles. Whether its a Tennis Court, Restaurant, School or any (fill-in the blank) Commercial Facility there are always light poles in the vicinity.  Over time the metal weathers/fades and rusts creating a very unappealing aesthetic. Light Poles that are not maintained may show a lack of caring, details or worse yet danger. As farfetched as it sounds children love to grab and climb on light poles.

Light poles are typically 25 ft + and required special tools and techniques to properly prepare and paint. Painting Contractors of MD has company owned man lifts with trained employees to effectively paint tall light poles correctly and efficiently.

Painting an old home, especially one that is historic, requires attention to detail in order to preserve its character and structure. There are some unique challenges when it comes to painting an older home. Being that the surfaces are old, they have many layers of paint and are typically not in the best condition. Pealing, cracks, moisture and rot are all common issues. Some areas may even need to be replaced prior to painting. Proper surface preparation is key and usually needs to be done by hand which is less abrasive. It is important not to damage the integrity of the substrate. After proper surface prep is complete then it is time to start priming and painting.

Exterior Painting poses several dangers. Especially when it comes to any surface that requires a ladder to reach. Using ladders on uneven surfaces, slippery surfaces on simply not having it properly set up can cause a fall.  The higher up the surface, the greater the danger. Reaching a high surface to paint is hard enough, actually painting it while you are up there is even harder. At Painting Contractors of MD we take safety very serious. We eliminate the dangers of high work by utilizing one of our company owned lifts. This ensures that our employees are properly trained on the use and safety of the machine and are very familiar with it.

Barn Painters in Woodbine MD

/ , , / , , /

Do you have a Farm or Farmette that needs a face lift? Simply painting the barns and/or outbuildings can drastically change the appearance and aesthetics of the property.

Due to the nature of these structures, typically large with old wood, barns and out buildings tend to get neglected. Not to mention, the constant abuse from the livestock. When the time comes to tackle the project there can be an extensive amount of prep work before the actual painting can begin. One of our recent Barn Painting Projects was this horse run in located in Woodbine, MD. Before the painting could begin, this barn got a thorough wash to remove all the dirt and debris. Then we hand scraped all the surfaces to be painted to remove all the remaining loose and pealing paint. This non abrasive method insured that we did not damage any of the wood during the process. Last, we applied two coats of Premium Sherwin Williams  Solid Wood Stain.

Painting a religious institution takes and large amount of skill and expertise. Not only do you need to hire a professional company, but you also need to hire one with a large team.  Although some companies are professional and have the right talent and skillset, they do not have an adequate team to complete the job in a efficient and productive manner. When a facility hosts hundreds of people at the end of every week, it is crucial that things get set up, completed , and cleaned up in a timely manner. Check out one of our recent local church projects in Sykesville, MD!

One of the best times to consider a large painting project is during the time that a home or residence is vacant. Although scheduling can sometimes make this difficult, painting before you move into your new home is the ideal situation! The process is much more efficient when the space is not filled with obstructions like furniture and belongings. In turn, usually lowering the total project cost. Check out this home we recently completed in Ellicott City MD, just in time for the new owners to move into.
