About Third Generation Painters
Vernon painters making the run south to Osoyoos for exterior painting and weathered wood restoration, planned and priced before we arrive. 250-878-1702.
Heat is the whole argument down at the bottom of the valley. Osoyoos runs hotter and drier than anywhere else in the interior, the sun lands on sagebrush hills and stucco walls with equal enthusiasm, and a coating that would sit happily for a decade further north gives up early here.
That is why Third Generation Painters specifies the Benjamin Moore Aura exterior line for ultraviolet resistance rather than whatever is on sale. Benjamin Moore is the only brand the company buys, right through to the cabinet specific coatings used on kitchens. Substrate matters as much as product: Hardie board, stucco, painted wood and stained wood each behave differently under that kind of exposure, and none of them wants the same preparation.
Preparation is where the hours actually go. Caulk the joints that have opened, scrape off what has already let go, sand the ridges flat, fill the wood that has gone soft, prime the bare ground. Skip any of it and the sun finds the shortcut for you. Full outside repaints are written up under exterior painting, and timber that has silvered rather than peeled belongs instead with wood restoration.
The geography needs saying plainly. Brook Nullmeyer runs this company out of Vernon, at the top of the valley. Armstrong, Enderby and Lake Country mark the outer edge of what he covers as a matter of course; Salmon Arm, Sicamous and Canoe come up only as select projects. Osoyoos sits a long way south of any of that, so anything down here is a special arrangement rather than a routine stop. Ask about it on the phone before you plan around it.
Working at Heights certified, registered with WorkSafeBC, insured to $5 million. Estimates cost nothing and Brook does them himself. He answers on 250-878-1702.
