Painting notes


These are notes from the Thursday meeting with PJM, JBC and Paul Schroeder
  • We will do a mock up of one of the interior windows to determine process, finish, and cost.
  • The cracks and loose paint in the textured great room walls and ceiling may be better off, (cosmetically, cost effective and longevity) having the plasterers skim coat smooth.  The same is true for the upstairs hallway, the servants quarters bedroom ceiling and the third floor playroom ceiling.
  • As per Peter Millington, not all hairline cracks need to be addressed.
  • Archia and Final Touch Painting will continue to explore options for the finish of the heat register covers.
  • Other areas of confined peeling and cracked paint will be addressed by Final Touch Painting in their general prep work.  If any of these areas are found to have major surface adhesion issues we will bring this to the attention of Archia homes and explore our options at that point.
