Best Time to Paint Home Exterior
After painting hundreds of house exteriors over the past 15 years, I can say without a doubt that Spring and early Summer are the Best Time To Paint Home Exterior.
Soon or later most Homes will require a new paint job, and there is no better time to do that than spring and early summer. Not only can a fresh coat of paint bring house house exterior back to life enhance its curb appeal, but it can also help preserve the house against the elements. Below are some of the reason why you should consider repainting the exterior of your house this year.
Temperature
Even if the sky is clear, a fluctuating thermometer can spell doom for a promising paint project. Hot weather can speed up drying times and keep the pain from correctly setting, while sudden freezes can crack pristine finishes. Even excessive humidity can lead to uneven coat textures and make a paint job appear sloppy.
Weather
The temperate weather that comes with spring and early summer isn’t just pleasant; it’s also the ideal time for an exterior paint project. Extreme weather is the natural enemy of newly painted buildings. Even light rain or snow can damage a fresh coat of paint, and high winds can smother wet paint under a blanket of dust. Hot summer days can cause paint to dry too fast and ruin the finish.
Convenience
Getting a painting project out of the way early in the year, means that you are free to focus on other household projects, from gardening to landscaping. It also frees up your summer for barbecues and pool parties. By having your home painted in the spring or early summer, you can ensure that you won’t have to make room for it in your busy schedule over the rest of the year.
