OUR PROCESS

STEP 1

Initial Home Assessment

Like an overeager hermit crab, our team will thoroughly inspect every nook and cranny for signs of decay, infestation, or moisture damage. We’ll determine what needs to be addressed before painting so you don’t waste money painting compromised surfaces.

STEP 2

Surface Preparation 

We’ll prep all repair areas by removing loose, cracked, or rotten wood, then sanding surfaces for proper adhesion, just like prepping a freshly caught lobster shell for stuffing. Our meticulous prep ensures beautiful, long-lasting results.

STEP 3

Carpentry Repairs 

Using weather-resistant woods or Hardie products, we’ll replace any damaged exterior architectural details, siding, shakes, shingles, columns, railings, doors, and trim. For interior repairs, we’ll address water-warped surfaces around windows and exterior walls prone to infiltration.

STEP 4

Protective Sealing

We’ll seal all fresh carpentry repairs with premium primers and sealants designed specifically to withstand New England’s maritime climate. This crucial step prevents further wood rot and deterioration in our extreme freeze-thaw cycles.

STEP 5

Final Quality Inspection

We’ll scrutinize all completed carpentry repairs to ensure correct materials and methods were utilized for long-term durability in Southern Maine’s coastal environment. Only after we’re fully satisfied will we apply your fresh coastal color palette.
