Staining

Per the Second Amendment to the Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions, villas must be re-stained "using paint and color approved by the Association and with the painting itself being performed in a good quality manner which is satisfactory to the Association, which painting must occur no less frequently than once every six (6) years."

From the KPVA Frequent Maintenance Issues (page 39; 10/21/23):

Must be completed every 6 years using specified stain (see p.5, #13, footnote 2); schedule and stain color set by Architectural Control Committee (ACC). After consulting with the ACC owners have the option of changing to another color among the eight options as long as the new color selected is not the same as their immediate neighbors. Please note that the wood trim, mailbox posts, yard lamp posts, wood or metal garage doors, and service doors must also be stained. Any warped, cracked or deteriorating cedar siding must also be replaced at this time. The only stain that may be used is Benjamin Moore Arborcoat Solid Deck and Siding Stain. The approved supplier is C. E. Lee 1725 N. Ironwood, South Bend, IN, 574-262-6888. Owners may use any contractor (although a list of available contractors can be requested from the ACC). A Staining Completion Form must be completed and returned when staining is finished. Details involving your villa staining are typically mailed (USPS) a year in advance, allowing you ample time to schedule a contractor, since their schedules for a given year fill up rapidly in the spring.

Note: Benjamin Moore changed its branding from Arborcoat to Woodluxe.
