Living in Pasadena and the surrounding Southern California cities like Glendale, Alhambra, and Burbank means your home’s exterior faces intense sun, occasional rain, and dusty conditions. To keep your home protected and looking its best, custom exterior painting is essential. Here’s an in-depth look at why it matters and how we approach it at The Renaissance Painter.
Why Exterior Painting is a Smart Investment
Protects your home’s surfaces: Shields wood, stucco, or siding from damage caused by sun, wind, and moisture.
Prevents costly repairs: Proper painting maintenance reduces risks of rot, cracking, and water damage.
Boosts curb appeal and value: A fresh, perfectly painted exterior dramatically enhances your home’s first impression and market value.
Preserves your architectural style: Especially essential for Pasadena’s historic Craftsman homes to maintain their timeless charm.

Surface Preparation:
Deep cleaning and pressure washing to remove dirt, mildew, and old paint flakes.
Scraping off peeling or loose paint to create a smooth base.
Sanding rough or uneven areas for uniformity.
Caulking gaps around windows, doors, and trim to seal out moisture.
Priming:

Using premium, weather-resistant exterior paints designed for Southern California’s climate.
Applying multiple coats with smooth, even strokes for durability and coverage.
Painting trim, doors, shutters, and other accents to complement the main surfaces.
