Older homes and original woodwork
Plenty of Cashmere homes still have their original cedar or fir siding, wide window casing, and porch details. Paint on those surfaces has usually been recoated many times, so the failure is between layers rather than at the wood. Prep means scraping to a sound edge, feathering the transitions, and spot priming bare wood so the repair does not telegraph through the finish.
Interior work in these homes often means doors, casing, and baseboard that are worth keeping. We prep and enamel those rather than suggesting you tear them out.
