Our house was in desperate need of a paint job! You could see it peeling in some areas, especially on the wall that catches all the wind, rain and snow. At the beginning of summer True Value had an awesome paint sale, buy one gallon get one free. So that is the beginning of a long summer for Kirk! He did all the work himself, with just a tiny bit of help from us. Here is a before picture...
Kirk had to powerwash the entire house.
Then he had to scrape and caulk the whole thing too, especially this wall. Here he is taking a break. I saw him out the kitchen window and I came out to take a picture and make sure he wasn't asleep up there!
And here is the 'almost' finished product. Looks so much better! Kirk spent a lot of time on this and his hard work paid off! Hopefully it wont be as attractive to the extremely annoying box elder bugs that like light colored buildings in the fall and spring for the warmth that is reflected from the sun.
Now it is time to paint the front door!!
