Painting brick offers unique challenges for painting that professional brick painters can help with. When it comes to transforming the exterior of your home, few upgrades are as striking—or as tricky—as painting brick. DIY may work for some home improvement projects, but you should often let professionals handle painting brick. At Van Tuinen Painting, our professional brick painters have been delivering expert results to homeowners across West Michigan for years. If your home has sections of brick, or is entirely built from brick on its exterior, you can count on us to provide impeccable paintwork.
Why Painting Brick Is Different
Brick offers a beautiful, timeless look to homes. But, it also presents a unique set of challenges when it comes to painting. Unlike drywall or wood, brick has a porous, uneven surface that can make it more challenging to paint. It also absorbs paint differently compared to standard drywall or wood. And, if the wrong products or techniques are used, the result can be peeling, flaking, or even damage to the brick itself.
By trusting in professional brick painters, you choose a team that knows how to assess the condition of your brick, choose the right primers and breathable coatings, and apply them using industry best practices. Professionals take into account moisture, previous coatings, and environmental exposure. These are details that can change how well your paint job lasts. Without knowing the requirements of the surface you paint, you can make more work for yourself in the long run. Professionals help avoid any potential problems and guarantee a great end result.
