Fishers two story house - wood trim only

Finished another house in Fishers on Wednesday. It took me three days including pressure washing, preparation, and painting. Used one gallon of Sherwin Williams top of the line exterior paint called Duration. 

Steps:
  1. Pressure washed all the wood trim. Let dry for one day;
  2. Caulked using both white and clear caulk (around brick). Used 5 tubes;
  3. Applied 1gallon of paint on all the wood trim;
  4. Cleaned up and did a walk-through with customer.
Challenges:
  • A lot of preparation including scraping, feathering, and caulking;
  • Working over a Pergola in the backyard that required standing on a plank to get to the trim;
  • Stung twice on the ear by a honey bee.

Laid a 8 foot plank on the pergola so I could stand on it and reach the soffit
