Painting Project Completed in Tigard, OR

Denise H. of Tigard, OR recently chose 1st Oregon Exteriors to complete her painting project on her home. This project included an exterior home painting using Sherwin Williams Resilience Satin Paint, re-caulking the siding, and fixing some siding dry rot.

Denise had her entire house painted including the garage door, fascia, and gutters with a lifetime warranty paint. By applying two coats of Sherwin Williams Resilience Satin Paint, Denise wont have to worry about her home exterior for many years to come.

Additionally, the caulking we used can only be found with major commercial contractors. The Sonolastic 150 VLM is an amazing and wide range application that is trusted because of its superior stability and durability. It comes with a 20 year warranty so long as a 1/4 inch space is maintained around the entire house between the siding.

Denise chose SW6180 oak moss for the home’s body color and SW 2859 beige for her home’s trim color. Additionally, her deck was painted with a coat of Sherin Williams Woodscapes to guarantee no tanmin bleed on the nail head, knots and butt ends.

Have you ever noticed that one or two of your exterior walls just look worse than the other sides of your home? They look beat up, they’re rough, and they won’t hold paint very well. When the wind and rain come, a drip may even appear in your windowsills. If there is a drip coming all the way through to the inside of your home, imagine what’s going on inside your walls.
