Here’s How It Works
1. Inspection
Inspect the door material and existing coating. Record moisture, edge, hardware, seal and repair issues. The written scope should distinguish decorating from carpentry, glazing or hardware work.
2. Hardware Removal
List the handles, locks, hinges, seals and other fittings that stay, are protected or are removed and refitted. Any hardware repair should be separate.
3. Preparation
The written scope should state the preparation for the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish, including any repairs that are excluded or need another trade.
4. Priming
Name the primer or first coat for the identified front door material and existing coating. Any adhesion test and application should follow the product instructions.
5. Finish Coats
The written scope should identify the proposed finish and coats; manufacturer guidance and observed coverage should govern recoating.
