Our Contracting Trade Capabilities
High-performance coatings, precision carpentry rot repair, and gentle pressure washing executed by Scott Sprague.
Exterior Painting & Weather-Shield Staining
New England weather inflicts severe thermal shock, freezing moisture, and blistering summer heat on exterior substrates. We prepare surfaces down to sound substrate, apply high-adhesion bonding primers, and finish with premium elastomeric coatings that expand and contract without peeling.
- ✓ Substrates: Wood clapboard, cedar shingles, composite siding, brick, decks, porches, trim.
- ✓ Preparation: Power wash, hand scraping loose coatings, feather sanding edges, bare wood spot-priming.
- ✓ Materials: Sherwin-Williams Emerald / Duration Exterior, Benjamin Moore Aura, Cabot Stains.
Interior Painting & Cabinet Refinishing
Crisp cut-ins, velvet-smooth walls, and factory-finish cabinet doors. We take meticulous care of your home, masking floors with thick canvas drop cloths and sealing off work areas with plastic dust barriers.
- ✓ Scope: Ceilings, walls, architectural crown molding, baseboards, doors, staircases, cabinetry.
- ✓ Preparation: Drywall nail-pop repair, plaster stabilization, caulking gaps, 220-grit smooth sanding.
- ✓ Cabinet Finishes: Degreasing, bonding primer, and sprayed hard-wearing lacquer enamel.
High-Performance Pressure & Soft Washing
High pressure can gouge wood and force water behind siding. We utilize professional soft-wash low-pressure techniques with biodegradable sanitizers that kill mold, algae, and lichen at the root.
