Standard preparation for Irvine homes involves a comprehensive cleaning, typically with power washing, to remove dirt, grime, and chalking paint.

Any necessary repairs to siding or wood are addressed before applying a high-quality primer specifically chosen for the substrate. This ensures a durable and beautiful finish.
