With the scraping and carpentry done on the house, the painters sanded and then power washed the house. The next day we came home to spots of a new blue!
Anywhere that the wood was exposed from the scraping & sanding, got covered with an oil based primer.
They also primed the porch ceiling. This hadn't been painted at all, as you can see in this post. We went with a traditional light blue for this.
The primer on the house looked like a Wedgwood blue- but the painter said it's just about 60% the saturation that the final color will be.
The siding on the new extension was built with boards that were already primed.
They've been spending some time back there caulking though.
The well house got primed too, although there's still some carpentry work that needs to be completed, so they are going to hold off on the actual painting on that building.
As mentioned yesterday, the garage still needs quite a bit more carpentry work on the back, so they aren't doing any priming on that yet.
Next up- the paint color will be revealed!
