Painting a brick house white can be a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be! With the right preparation and tools, you can paint your brick house in no time.
Before getting started with painting, use a pressure washer to remove any dirt or dust from the surface of the bricks. This will help ensure that the paint adheres properly and looks its best when finished. Let the area dry completely before moving on.
Next, apply an exterior primer specifically designed for masonry surfaces to seal off any gaps between the bricks and create a smooth surface for painting. Make sure all edges are covered and let it dry thoroughly before continuing on.
Finally, pick out your desired shade of white paint and start painting. Use a brush for the edges and corners of your house, and then use a roller to cover larger areas. Work from top to bottom, and be sure to check around corners and door frames for any missed spots. If you need more than one coat, let it dry before adding another layer on top.
Painting your house white can take some time, but with patience and the right tools, you’ll have a fresh new look in no time! Enjoy your newly painted brick house!
