Here's a recent cabinet painting project that led to referrals for more projects. Just the way we like it. Do good work with good people and the word gets around. Thanks Liesa!

These doors were showing a lot of damage from the extreme sun exposure that western facing wood gets here in AZ. I used an epoxy filler to repair the cracks in the front door then several coats of stain trying to get back to the original color and a clear penetrating top coat for UV and weatherproofing protection. The garage doors got a good scrubbing to remove all the loose dried out stain then two coats of a premium weatherproofing stain.

Here's a recent job I did in DC Ranch. These garage doors and shutters were showing signs of weathering from the Arizona sun. A good cleaning and a couple of coats of weatherproofing stain on the doors and good paint on the shutters will protect them for a few years. Every house needs maintenance. Protect your investment.

One of our projects this week was an epoxy floor in a 3 car garage. Lots of prep, one coat of epoxy, flakes, and two coats of clear sealer.

I talked with a few people this week about refinishing exterior doors. Here in the southwest excessive sun exposure and the dry air make finishes that rely on a protective film more apt to be the maintenance problem.
Norm Abrams makes a good point in this post on the This Old House web site. In it he recommends Australian Timber Oil. I think he's right.

Q: I have completely refinished my solid-cedar front door twice—by sanding it to bare wood, staining it, then applying a marine spar varnish—but the finish still doesn't hold up long under our fierce desert sun. Is there anything I can do to help this door?

Welcome home, a fresh look for another front door.
