As experienced painters, we at That 1 Painter understand how harsh Michigan winters can be on homes in West Michigan. From bitter cold and heavy snow to spring thaws and summer storms, the dramatic climate swings in this region put a lot of stress on houses. Proper caulking and sealing are essential for exterior and interior paint jobs.
Caulk is a flexible, adhesive sealant that fills in cracks, gaps, seams, and joints. It works to protect against drafts, moisture, pests, and more. With the many older, historic homes in Grand Rapids neighborhoods and extreme weather conditions, vigilant caulking is key. It defends against potential water damage, rotting, and decay while giving freshly painted trims, sidings, and corners a flawless finish.
Our expert team begins with a thorough inspection to identify all areas requiring caulking. We assess the condition of surfaces to ensure the best results for your house painting project.
We meticulously clean and prepare all surfaces, removing old caulk and debris. This step ensures optimal adhesion and a smooth, professional finish.
Using top-grade caulking materials, we expertly seal all gaps and joints. Our precision ensures maximum durability and weather resistance, enhancing your home’s protection against the cold, snowy winters and humid summers in West Michigan.
We smooth and finish the caulk for a seamless look. Our attention to detail guarantees a flawless, clean line that enhances the overall aesthetic of your paint job.
Our process concludes with a comprehensive inspection to ensure every spot is perfectly caulked. We also clean up the work area, leaving your home spotless and ready for painting.
Flexible silicone or latex acrylic caulks handle expansion and contraction from temperature swings. Custom options are available to best suit your home’s needs.
Solid caulking seals tiny access points in structures and exteriors, denying entry to nuisance rodents, insects, spiders, and more for a cleaner home.
Many historic houses have gaps, cracks, and openings for drafts, moisture, and pests to infiltrate, leading to decay over time. Careful caulking protects architectural integrity.
