Painting the facade: to make the house beautiful

Facade works are relevant both for large cities and for small towns. Moreover, painting the facade remains the most popular and effective way of restoring old buildings. In addition, this technology allows you to protect new buildings from the effects of adverse factors. Painting the facades of houses is not only to improve their appearance.

Owners of good old houses should not forget that the state of the facade, which has not been updated for a long time, can tell a lot to passers-by about the owner of the house. And about the companies located in buildings where the facade has not been painted for a long time, customers can have a negative impression. Therefore, timely repair and renovation of the building should be carried out.

Work on painting buildings will restore their faded brightness, and if necessary, completely change the face of the house. With the help of industrial climbers, repair of the building can be done much faster and more economically.

Painting the facade is primarily concerned with plastered and concrete surfaces that have a porous structure. As a result, dust, moisture, microflora and dirt can not penetrate into the materials.

Unfavorable environmental factors and long-term effects of atmospheric phenomena cause destructive irreversible processes damaging the walls of the building.

Painting the facade will not only renew its appearance, but also protect it. At the same time, it is better to entrust the work to repair the facades to professionals, since poor-quality painting of the facades will not help to keep the building in its proper form for many years.

Before starting the work, you should determine the type of the surface, as well as evaluate its condition, so that the painting can be done successfully later. The next step is to select materials that are compatible with the surfaces to be painted, which are best suited to these climatic conditions. If the façade has already been painted, then the new paint should be chosen, given its compatibility with the previous one.

The design should be started only after a detailed preparation of the surface, which includes degreasing, cleaning, priming and leveling. This may require special equipment.

When designing the facades of houses, it should be borne in mind that the surface of the painted walls must be dry. Therefore, it is inadmissible to perform work during or after the rain. Also, it is impossible to paint walls in too hot weather, under the influence of direct sunlight.

High-quality painting of the facade, its durability and color directly depend on the paint used. Materials used for painting, are divided into acrylic, silicate, etc. The most widely used acrylic dyes.

Their main advantage lies in the fact that the acrylic paint does not pass moisture from the outside and simultaneously does not allow moisture to evaporate, which is in the depths of the porous walls. Acrylic paints, created on a water basis, and also with the help of organic solvents can be used for painting exterior walls.
