Six things Tim shows you on a real repaint

01 Clean color lines, and no paint where it does not belong

Read what Tim says

I'm a stickler for straight lines and cleanliness on my job sites. If you look across here, there's a lot of detail work. We have good clean lines around our pop-outs. We have zero paint on anything that's not supposed to be painted. Clean color lines that transition from the garage door to the accent to the main field color all around the stonework. We also have a gate feature here in the front that was painted. With iPaintHomes, we like to leave the house better than we found it. So we will not get paint on anything you do not want painted, whether it be flooring, furniture, stonework, roof tiles, or windows.

In Tim’s words

What Tim has learned about paint

He writes about prep, Arizona weather and color on the iPaintHomes blog. Each quote is copied word for word from one of his posts, linked under it.

  • On prep

    In more than 25 years, I’ve learned that repaint longevity depends almost entirely on preparation. New paint performs best over a clean, stable, properly repaired surface.
    Tim Rochford, from his post on how exterior paint protects Arizona homes
  • On caulk

    In every repaint project we do, replacing failed caulk is a non-negotiable step.

  • On monsoon season

    In more than 25 years of matching paint colors and evaluating exterior finishes across Arizona homes, I’ve learned that monsoon season is when your house tells you the truth about its paint.
    Tim Rochford, from his post on monsoon season and exterior paint
  • On shortcuts

    Don’t simply pop the bubble and paint over it. I’ve made that mistake early in my career, and the new coating always fails for the same reason.
    Tim Rochford, from his post on monsoon season and exterior paint
  • On color

    I offer color consultation as part of my service. After more than 25 years of matching colors, I can help you narrow down choices and avoid costly mistakes.

  • On paint

    For paint quality, I stick with Sherwin-Williams and Dunn-Edwards.

  1. The estimate visit

    When Tim gave the quote, he actually walked around the house with me to show all the things they do when they do a paint job. Their attention to detail is incredible, even repairing some of our stucco!

  2. Choosing colors

    Tim helped with design and color choices. He checked in - in person every day of the project. His crew was exceptional, everything was cleaned every day.

  3. Working with the crew

    He met with the crew daily and they were meticulous with difficult cut-ins on a vaulted ceiling.
    Jeff H.Google review
  4. Checking the work

    We also liked that Tim stopped by the house everyday to check on the work that the guys were doing and ask us if we had any questions.
