We take the risk out of hiring a painter with our extra-long warranties on most of our work.
I don't know if it is harder to find skilled carpenters or exterior painters in Norman, but it's nice to have both under one roof!
Our painters in Norman take the time to make the repairs look brand new!
This repair should last for at least five years. When it is time to replace, we suggest installing a fiberglass column instead of wood.
There are five key steps that every homeowner should know before hiring exterior painters in Norman OK.
An exterior painting job may look nice when it’s finished but will last?
Yes, it’s possible the contractor utilized the correct primer and paint. The lines may have been precise, and they were considerate of your property… But none of it tells you whether the paint will hold up over time.
Five main variables cause premature paint failure. Moreover, I don’t believe most painting contractors practice these five easy steps.
Since the early 1990s, Klappenberger & Son has been painting the exteriors of homes. We have also observed our mistakes and mistakes from other painting contractors. With this knowledge and experience, we have assembled a five-step process that gives us the longest warranty of any exterior painting contractor in Norman Ok and beyond.
Consider Klappenberger & Son as your Norman exterior painting contractor whether you have a ranch, a condo, a large house, or anything in between.
We have 30 years of knowledge and expertise to help you beautify your home and protect it from the elements.
We’re not only a painting company; we can also help you with carpentry and other handyman tasks around the house.
Because of this, we’re the perfect one-stop shop for your most cherished possession, your home.
Rather than using high-pressure washers, we use chemicals to clean your home’s exterior.
A minimum amount of chemicals is used to eliminate mildew and clean the house of any dirt or pollen that has accumulated.
It is safe to use our cleaning solutions around your plants and flowers.
Most experienced exterior painters in Norman know that chlorine kiils mold and mildew but very few know that mold spores can with stand ten minutes of bleach and water.
Our trained exterior painters know to allow at least the proper cleaning solution to sit on the surface for 15 minutes prior to rinsing.
This method prevents the mildew from growing through the paint.

Unless the wood is very damp, it is not possible to tell if the moisture content is low enough to be painted.
The only way to be certain is to use a moisture meter. A moisture meter will detect the percentage of moisture in the wood.
Note: water is the most common cause of paint peeling.
Almost all paint requires the moisture content to be below 16%.
When it comes to exterior primers, there is no “one size fits all.” It doesn’t matter whether you’re painting Georgia Pine or Canadian Pine; not all primers are created equal.
What happens if you make the incorrect primer selections? The paint will begin to peel.
Why?
Because the wood, primer, and top coat of paint are not expanding and contracting simultaneously, the wood will warp and crack.
Because of the abrupt changes in Norman’s seasons, all three surfaces must expand and shrink simultaneously.
As a customer of Klappenberger & Son, you will get expert advice on which primer would work best with your particular surface.
Applying two coats is necesary to receive an unheard of five year warranty.
Here’s why. Take a close look at the picture on the right. Can you see where someone brushed the edges and seams and then rolled the enitire surface.?
There is substantially more paint remaining on the surfaces that got both brushed and rolled.
Adding a second coat of paint often increases the overall cost of the project by 30 to 35 percent. However, it typically extends the life of the paint job by 40-70%. In short, it’s a good smart choice in one of your largest investments.
We are often asked what season is the most suitable for outside painting.
It is determined by the temperature.
Most paint manufacturers prefer that the temperature be lower than 90 degrees and higher than the mid-’30s for at least 24 hours before a project is started. If paint freezes before it has had a chance to dry completely, it may lose its capacity to cure completely.
It is also possible that if it rains soon after the surface has been painted, the moisture will soak through the paint, causing bubbles to appear.
Due to this, it is preferable not to paint when the likelihood of rain is more than 30-40 percent for the next 24 hours.
Unfortunately, many painting contractors do not adhere to this tenet of professionalism. Instead, they aim to accomplish the work as soon as possible and then move on to the next task at hand.
Given the fact that we provide guarantees for our outside painting work, we adhere to a number of best practices, one of which is paying close attention to weather conditions.
Whether your exterior siding cement board, vinyl, aluminum, brick or stucco we have additional information ready for you!
