Our Exterior Painting Process — Step by Step
-
Free property assessment — We visit your home, assess the current condition of exterior surfaces, identify any preparation challenges, and provide a clear written estimate
-
Surface preparation — We pressure wash all exterior surfaces, treat any mould or mildew with appropriate solutions, sand all chalking or peeling areas, and fill any cracks or surface defects
-
Masking and protection — All windows, doors, hardware, and landscaping adjacent to painted surfaces are carefully masked and protected before any paint is applied
-
Priming — Dedicated primer is applied to all bare surfaces, repaired areas, and any previously painted areas showing adhesion issues. Marine-grade primer is applied to all metal surfaces on coastal or corrosion-exposed properties
-
First finish coat — Premium exterior acrylic is applied as a full first coat across all surfaces, maintaining a wet edge to avoid lap marks
-
Inspection and touch-up — We inspect the first coat after drying, address any holidays or thin areas, and prepare for the second coat
-
Second finish coat — Full second coat applied for complete coverage, colour depth, and maximum film thickness for durability
-
Trim and detail work — All trim, fascia, soffits, doors, and windows are carefully hand-painted for sharp, professional cut lines
-
Final inspection and clean-up — Complete site clean-up and a thorough inspection of all painted surfaces before requesting your sign-off
-
1-Year guarantee — Your exterior paint job is backed by our full workmanship guarantee

Why Hawaii's Climate Demands a Different Approach
-
Standard exterior painting techniques developed for mainland climates are frequently inadequate for Hawaii's Big Island. Here's why our approach is specifically adapted for island conditions:
-
Humidity management — We monitor conditions and never apply paint in high-humidity situations that compromise adhesion and film formation
-
UV-rated products — Every exterior paint we specify carries UV resistance ratings appropriate for Hawaii's solar intensity
-
Moisture barriers — On all timber surfaces, we apply barrier-coat primers that prevent moisture vapour transmission that causes blistering
-
Salt-air protocols — On coastal and exposed properties, marine-grade products are used on all metal surfaces and additional surface preparation steps are applied to all other materials
-
Vog awareness — Properties in affected Puna and Volcano areas receive specific surface preparation to remove vog residue before any painting begins
