Why Spring Works Great for Home Outdoor Painting
Many families schedule painting early in the spring for a variety of reasons. Beyond simply nice weather to paint in, spring weather usually offers a great period for painting because of:
- Temperature-sensitive paints: Depending on the type of paint that you work with outside, milder temperatures help to provide your home with a smoother finish. By painting during cool springtime weather, an even finish on your home’s surface is much easier to achieve.
- Less risk of dangerous conditions: Although painting homes during the heat of summer also offers chances for a smooth painting experience, sometimes the weather may reach unsafe conditions. In the humid, hot weather that we get in the Midwest, heat exhaustion can become a concern. So, painting in spring means avoiding this potential risk and allows for longer painting sessions that mean a faster project timeline.
- Easier application of paint: When high humidity days in summer come, some paints may have a harder time properly applying to the surface of your home. With milder springtime weather, we can apply paint without this concern. Even temperatures that get too high in summer may go outside the recommended range for certain painting brands. With spring staying more mild, most days offer the chance for a great home outdoor painting experience.
Exterior Painting Prepares Homes for Summer
Beyond being a great season to paint for ease of painting, spring also helps homeowners prepare their home for summer. By getting your home outdoor painting finished before summer, you can:
- Better protect against UV: Older paint that has had years of exposure to sunlight degrades and discolors over time. Although it may take a long time to reach that point, you can give your home better protection with new paint. Many exterior paints for homes have UV protection built in, helping protect your home and keeping everything looking fresh for years to come.
- Finding stray storm damages: When painters inspect your home, they also help you find other potential problems that you can address sooner than later. Things like storm damage often go unnoticed until a full home inspection takes place. When painters inspect a home for painting purposes, they help you find any problem areas such as those affected by storm damage to help get them replaced before any heavy precipitation later in the year.
- Impress summer guests: Whether people stop over for a summer garage sale or you have festivities planned with family and friends, a newly painted home offers curb appeal for summer visitors. A freshly-painted home provides a bright, welcoming appearance for friends new and old, allowing you to host anyone with confidence.
