Paint is the easy part. What makes it last in this town is what happens before the first coat. Littleton was founded in 1862 along the South Platte River, so the older homes near West Main Street have plaster, old trim, and quirks that reward doing the prep right. Here is what we look for.
At 5,397 feet elevation the sun is strong and the air is dry, which changes how paint goes on and how long it lasts, and a few of the oldest blocks sit inside a historic district. A few things come up on nearly every job.
Old Littleton homes have plaster over lath, and it cracks along the same lines. Painting over a crack just hides it for a month. We repair and bridge the cracks and prime them, so the wall stays smooth instead of ghosting the old lines through your new color.
A lot of homes near Downtown and in Sterne Park predate 1978 and can have lead under newer coats. We follow lead-safe practices for containment and cleanup, so the sanding and scraping does not spread dust through the house.
The trim and doors in older Littleton homes are often old oil paint. New latex peels right off it without the right primer. We scuff, clean, and use a bonding primer so the new trim paint actually holds.
The strong high-altitude sun fades south and west facing rooms fast. We use quality paint that keeps its color, so the sunny side does not look worn out a year ahead of the rest of the house.
The dry mile-high air makes paint flash and set fast, which leaves lap marks if it is rushed. We work the walls the right way and keep a wet edge so the finish is even, top to bottom.
The part you notice every day is the cut lines at the ceiling and trim. We mask, cut clean, and protect your floors and furniture, and we clean up at the end of every day, not just at the end of the job.
