Worn siding on a house being prepped for painting, with paint chips and tools on a tarp. Ladder and truck in the background. Cloudy sky. — Behind the scenes of a real transformation: Our crew carefully scraping and prepping this Connecticut home for a full exterior repaint. Proper prep work ensures your paint job lasts for years—no shortcuts here!

When a home’s paint starts peeling, cracking, and flaking like the one pictured here, it’s more than just an eyesore—it’s a warning sign. Exposed siding allows moisture to seep in, leading to rot, mold, and structural damage. That’s why Connecticut Painters United takes preparation seriously.

📍 This home in Cromwell, CT had extensive paint failure. Instead of a quick spray-over, we committed to the process: scrape, sand, seal, and protect—done right the first time.

🔧 Our Professional Exterior Painting Process:

Full Paint RemovalWe carefully scraped every inch of loose paint using carbide scrapers to get down to bare wood where needed.
Feather SandingWe smoothed rough transitions between raw wood and remaining paint for a clean, paint-ready surface.
Moisture MonitoringUsing moisture meters, we confirmed the siding was fully dry before priming to ensure long-term adhesion.
Spot Priming with Sherwin-Williams® ProBlockWe used a high-quality oil-based primer to seal and prep bare wood areas.
