Elevate Your Home's Appeal
If you're looking to elevate your home's aesthetic appeal and prevent costly future repairs, consider improving and protecting your wood furnishings with help from Jo Painting, LLC. Taking attentive care of wood pieces, particularly those outside and exposed to the elements is vital.
Though beautiful and rustic, they remain vulnerable to the will of nature, which is particularly threatening in rainy regions like Rhode Island. During winter, wood that isn't correctly stained or coated soaks in excessive moisture that can freeze, creating cracks and expensive-to-repair damage.
Proper maintenance is the primary barrier between your exterior furnishings and inevitable demise from wetness, mold, mildew, and insects.
Though it may seem like extra work, taking care of them is well worth the effort. Outdoor features, such as fences and decks, provide curbside appeal, additional security, usable activity space, and sometimes even increased home and resale value.
When it comes to desirable materials, wood ranks at the top while also being a cost-effective investment. For example, repairing or refinishing a wooden deck can achieve a higher than 600 percent return on investment (ROI). For a FREE estimate, call (401) 662-5830 today.
Starting Fresh With Stripping
Nothing makes a comeback quite as impressive as old wood. Even when it looks faded and worn, it can brighten right up with a little love and care. The proper way to bring the wood back to life is to start from scratch with the bare surface by removing peeling paint or stubborn sealer or paint.
The three standard stripping methods are heating, chemical application, and sanding. Though conceptually simple, stripping often ends up being more complicated than people initially expect. If done incorrectly, the wood may become scorched or otherwise damaged, and then you'll have a costly makeover on your hands.
Jo Painting technicians practice precise techniques that preserve the quality of your wooden pieces.
Maximized Protection
To extend the lifespan of wooden furnishings, make sure to finish them instead of leaving the raw wood exposed. Both staining and sealing prevent rot and highlight the wood grain to enhance its natural visual elements. Sealers provide an extra layer of protection and help the surface retain its shape during environmental changes.
However, while effective at counteracting moisture, sealers offer limited UV protection. Transparent to semi-opaque stains provide the most significant aesthetic value by penetrating and filling the wood's pores but have little to no moisture and UV protection. The more pigmented a stain is the greater moisture resistance and UV protection it has.
As a Rhode Island resident, you may have to apply stains more frequently due to the rainy weather, around every 1-2 years. Conduct a simple beading test to know when you're due for a re-stain or re-seal. If the water soaks through the surface rather than beading, it's time to give a professional company like Jo Painting a call.
Dangers of DIY and the Benefits of Hiring a Professional
Stripping, sealing, and staining are a lot more complicated than they sound. Moreover, they can be downright dangerous. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, paint strippers can cause hazardous side effects such as skin and eye irritation, headaches, dizziness, or nausea.
On top of stripper itself being toxic, you have to be careful regarding the product you're stripping as nearly 90% of homes built before 1940 have poisonous lead paint. Additionally, applying stains and sealers can be a tricky process for those without much experience.
People make many simple but common mistakes, such as rejuvenating wood that's already rotting or overzealously power washing. An improper job won't just look shoddy; it'll also compromise the wood's integrity, which can be particularly dangerous in the case of structural areas.
Some ventures are best left to the experts. At Jo Painting, we offer comprehensive services including stripping, staining, and sealing to spruce up your furniture, decks, fences, and more. Contact us today to bring new life to your home's furnishings.
