Handyman in Northport Village, Port St. Lucie

The owner, John Dagenais, looks at the job and gives you the number himself. Forty years of construction behind that number.

Most of a paint job is what happens first

Exterior paint here has to sit through months of sun and then months of rain, and it fails at the places nobody prepared: chalked stucco that was never washed down, bare filler that never got primed, caulk that had gone hard and was painted straight over. Prep is the slow part and it is the part that decides whether you are doing this again in four years or in twelve.
