July Maintenance Tips
- Keep the sprinklers off painted surfaces and stucco. Water is one of the main causes of premature paint failures.
- Touch-up exterior wood trim when cracks first appear on sills and horizontal surfaces. This stops water from getting behind the paint film and dramaticaly increases the life of the paint job.
- Repaint the south and west side fascia every 3 years or when you see signs of small cracks/discoloring. This can save a lot of money in the long run by not having to do much preparation when the paint is cracking and peeling due to intense sun exposure.
