Sanding Down the Surface: Another Step Toward a Flawless Exterior Finish

Serious prep in progress: We’re scraping, sanding, and testing colors to give this home a professional-grade paint job that’s built to last.

This is where real craftsmanship begins—not with a paintbrush, but with a scraper.

At Connecticut Painters United, we believe that what happens before paint hits the wall is what determines how long it will last. This Cromwell, CT home had extensive peeling, cracked, and sun-damaged paint—making it the perfect candidate for a full professional repaint, starting with aggressive surface prep.

Our crew is shown here sanding and scraping down the shingles, carefully removing loose paint while preserving the wood underneath. We don’t paint over problems—we solve them first.

🔧 Prep Process in Action:

✔️ Full scrape-down of all peeling areas✔️ Feather sanding to ensure smooth transitions✔️ Test patches for color swatches (as seen here in blue)✔️ Protection of all surrounding surfaces✔️ Use of Sherwin-Williams ProBlock™ Primer for stain blocking and adhesion

Once this prep is complete, we’ll prime and coat with a top-tier exterior paint built for New England’s seasonal swings—delivering a flawless finish and long-term protection.
