The painters spent about 4 days prepping and then painting the bead board ceiling above the front porch. Boy does it look good.
When I first saw the painting bid, I thought it sounded like a lot. However, seeing the quality of work that is being done, and all that goes into it, it makes more sense now. This isn’t your typical house painting (scrape, mask, and spray), but the type of work that might go into painting a car. They will prime the surface, Bondo any imperfections, prime again, caulk, and then apply several coats of finish paint.
In the above pictures you can see the finish color of the siding as well.
