Protection Primer

Just went under contract, won't close till October 15th, but I needed to take care of some weather exposure before then. Here is a shot of the paint which has worn off of the main beams on the back of the house.

I put some color matching primer on them. Once we close (or get close to closing) I'll start doing some proper painting. The white wash on the undersides will be white and the beam will be navy blue. But at least for now the wood is protected. Here is an after shot.

The color of the house really is bad, it's a putty color, with white wash under the eaves in the back, but all putty in the front. Definitely needs some sprucing up.
