Placeholder ImageWays to Help Raise the Longevity of Your Interior Paint Here are some maintenance suggestions we have that can help your interior paint last longer.

Choosing to paint your house’s interior is a big deal. It can be a large investment of time and money, and you want to get the most out of your paint job. Maximizing your paint’s longevity is something anyone will want to do because it helps them get the most value for their hard work. The best way to raise longevity for your paint is to undergo the right maintenance procedures. Here are some maintenance suggestions we have that can help your interior paint last longer.

Clean Your House Twice Per Year

For many people, thoroughly cleaning the house may be an annual task. However, if you clean your house twice per year instead, you have an easier time keeping mold and fungus under control. You can use soapy cleansers and a brush with soft bristles to deal with pesky dirt and stains.

Stop Fading From Happening

Over time, your interior paint will start fading, especially whenever the paint you have suffers exposure from UV lights and dust. If you’re going to do interior painting, make sure you use high-quality paint. Paints with better quality have an easier time holding in their color. Also, be wary of whether or not your paint gets exposed to sunlight because this can accelerate the fading process. To minimize sun exposure, use high-quality window coverings, which will serve as a shield between your paint and the sun’s rays.

Have Your House Waterproofed

Waterproofing your home does wonders for the interior. If your home is not waterproofed, your painting project could be ruined completely, meaning you will have to do everything all over again. This only serves to waste valuable time and money, which is why we advise that you have your house waterproofed before starting a painting project.

If there is water damage along your home’s interior or exterior already, you should get all of that damage repaired ahead of time. Fortunately, many painting companies offer waterproofing options that you can use for your home.

Consider Using Washable Paints

It’s likely that your home will eventually have to deal with smudges, such as handprints, and the best way to deal with these smudges is to address them quickly. What’s great is that modern paint formulas have cross-linking polymers tech in them, which helps them to deal with very stubborn stains and retain the beauty of your home.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
