"My house was in desperate need of TLC. It needed a new paint job, repair of wood due to termites, and repair water cracks in the stucco. From repair, to primer, to paint, my house did a complete u-turn. I also up-grated and added new rock siding. They also cleaned up on a daily basis. My house now looks like a modern country cottage.

Exterior Painting questions, answered by experts

Many professionals combine spraying and rolling to help your exterior paint job last longer. They first spray the surface to cover the whole area quickly, then use a technique known as back-rolling. This involves using a textured roller to work the wet paint into the surface to promote maximum adhesion. It also produces a soft finish that helps hide surface blemishes and makes touching up easier.

Yes, you can paint or finish LVL beams. Some people apply paint or coating to cover up the dull or patchy look left behind by the resins used when manufacturing LVL beams. It's essential to prepare the surface properly before painting. This includes cleaning the beams and ensuring they are free of dust, dirt, and any loose particles. You should also apply a primer before painting to get a smooth, even finish. 

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.

Stucco by itself is durable, but even paint made for harsh environmental conditions requires regular maintenance and upkeep. In other words, repaint your stucco every five to 10 years, depending on its current condition. Trust your senses. If it looks fine, it probably is fine. If it looks cracked and worn down, give it a new coat.

Streaky trim paint can result from several factors, including improper application techniques and insufficient coats. If you use a brush too large or damaged, you’re more likely to get uneven coverage. Using the wrong paint for the surface can also mean it’s not opaque enough to get the right coverage and a smooth finish. Remember to keep drying times in mind if you’re doing multiple coats. Make sure the bottom layer is completely dry before adding another layer. Otherwise, the brush and drag and clump the different paint textures, leading to a streaky, bumpy mess.
