Anti-mould / mildew-resistant paint application in Rochester
Rochester’s humid summers and damp winters create ideal conditions for mould and mildew growth on exterior surfaces. Older homes in neighborhoods like the 19th Ward or Arnett often have wood siding, porches, or trim that trap moisture, leading to unsightly black spots, peeling paint, and even rot. An anti-mould / mildew-resistant paint application is not simply a repaint — it’s a targeted treatment that addresses the root cause of biological growth before applying a protective coating designed to resist future outbreaks.
The process begins with a thorough inspection to identify all areas affected by mould or mildew. We then power-wash the exterior using a fungicidal cleaner that kills spores embedded in the wood or siding. Any loose or blistered paint is scraped away, and the surface is lightly sanded to ensure proper adhesion. A specialized anti-mould primer is applied next — this contains biocides that penetrate the substrate and prevent regrowth from within. Finally, we use a high-quality exterior paint formulated with mildewcide additives. These paints are often acrylic-based, offering breathability while resisting moisture absorption. For Rochester properties near the Genesee River or in shaded spots like Beechwood, where dampness lingers, this extra layer of protection is essential to avoid recurring staining and structural damage.
