If you book Auckland painting services with Sound Homes, you can avoid this costly mistake. These coatings are often the wrong type of paint, applied over previous degraded paint, not washed or prepared correctly, layered too thin, too thick, or with no consideration as to whether the new coating will drain and dry freely.  While this looks bad both inside and outside your home, it can also create severe problems for your exterior home protection. Improperly applied paint can pull away and expose the junction to leaking, possibly allowing water to get behind the paint and causing the coating to fail. The sealant products used on junctions for water tightness rely on staying flexible, and they become ineffective when they lose that flexibility. If you just paint over them, it’s like sticking a bandaid over a hole and expecting it to be waterproof.  Engaging a team with specialist knowledge around weather tightness and its relationship to house paint is crucial when booking your Auckland painting services. Sound Homes have the targeted experience, skills, and know-how to ensure your Auckland painting services are carried out correctly the first time.
