Tell Tale Signs of Exterior Paint Failure:
 |
COLOR FADING
Color looks dull or faded. Light colors seem
to be turning gray. Deep colors are losing
depth. |
 |
PAINT PEELING, CHIPPING,
OR CRACKING
This condition exposes raw wood to moisture
and allows increased deterioration. |
 |
CAULK FAILURE
Loose, cracking, or peeling caulk can lead
to energy loss, insect invasion, and moisture
penetration. Caulk failure is also a contributing
factor with wood rot, and mildew growth, both
on the interior and exterior of the home. |
 |
MILDEW
This condition presents itself as little dark
spots (spores) on the surface of the paint.
It should be removed with a mildewcide and
power washer. When the house is repainted,
a high quality, mildew resistant paint should
be used. |
