Professional Landscapers in New London, CT 06320 - R L Particular Painting

Absolutely. While painting doesn't directly treat moss, a failing exterior with cracked siding or peeling paint can trap moisture against your home's foundation and affect the surrounding soil. Our meticulous surface preparation and application of high-quality, breathable paints create a durable barrier that sheds water properly. This improved water management helps direct moisture away from your foundation, creating a drier environment that is less conducive to moss growth and can make subsequent lawn leveling and landscaping efforts more effective.

We take a 'particular' approach to preparation, which is crucial for long-lasting results in our climate. This includes thorough scraping and sanding of loose paint, washing the surfaces to remove mildew and dirt, careful caulking of all seams and gaps to prevent water intrusion, and priming of bare wood or repaired areas. This process not only ensures a smooth, beautiful finish but also seals and protects your home's exterior from the moisture and salt air common in New London, helping to preserve the structure underneath.

We generally recommend addressing the exterior painting first. Landscaping work, especially leveling or sod installation, can involve soil movement, watering, and equipment that may splash dirt or damage freshly painted surfaces. By completing the painting first, you protect that investment. Once the exterior is sealed and dry, your landscaping team can then work freely to address lawn leveling or moss issues, ensuring both projects are completed to the highest standard without interfering with each other.
