Originally, it was white, but a chalky film over it made it look dirty and gray. Andrea and Jason quickly realized that they would have to paint their home sooner rather than later. As a former house painter, he was discouraged knowing how long it would take him to brush and roll his entire siding.<\/p>\n<p>When a friend of his shared a video of Spray-Net on Facebook, he was astonished: \u201cThe fact that you can get a house painted in less than 3 days was the reason why I chose Spray-Net\u201d he said, \u201cI figured I would get a quote to see if I could afford it!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Secret<\/h3>\n<p>But Jason had a plan, he wanted to surprise his wife Andrea with a new home: \u201cI kept it a secret by getting the quote done while she was at work.\u201d The Spray-Net team showed up to the young couple\u2019s house and assured Jason they could complete the project. This was perfect, \u201cI had the project scheduled to be completed while we were on our honeymoon in St. Lucia.\u201d While they were away, Jason\u2019s family took over: \u201cI had them help me get some stuff done around the outside of the house while we were gone so she wouldn\u2019t get suspicious. When the Spray-Net guys showed up on our doorstep, my family was here to let them start their work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur house was somewhat outdated,\u201d Jason continues, \u201cIt was your regular red brick house with white siding. It needed a huge uplift!\u201d The Spray-Net colour consultant helped Jason pick the right palette to give the couple\u2019s home a more modern look: \u201cWe had our metal siding and eaves troughs painted a light gray, but the brick was the biggest transformation: we painted it a charcoal gray.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The Surprise<\/h3>\n<p>Jason had his family take pictures of the like-new house: \u201cWhen he showed me the photos, I didn\u2019t really know what he was showing me\u201d Andrea recalls, \u201cthen I realized it was our house! I was just really surprised. I knew Jason was up to something, I just didn\u2019t know what!\u201d And while Andrea\u2019s husband wanted to surprise his wife, it was a gift for the both of them: \u201cI was just as excited as her to see it when we got home!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was just shocked that Jason had planned this project and that all of our family \u2013 but me &#8211; knew about it!\u201d Andrea says, \u201cIt really looks like a new house, and our neighbours still talk about it today. Honestly, I wouldn\u2019t change a thing.\u201d Jason is just as enthusiastic: \u201cI would absolutely recommend Spray-Net to family and friends. No one loves renovations, but if you can get something that totally revamps your house and adds value to it done in less than three days, why wouldn\u2019t you do it?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Excellent question, Jason, why wouldn\u2019t you?<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; A New Home, the Ultimate Surprise Jason and Andrea are your typical young homeowner couple.
