Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the best time of year to paint the exterior of a house?

When all conditions are met—the temperature falls between 50-90 degrees Fahrenheit—and you have properly prepared your home with pressure washing (or another cleaning method), then you are ready for some exterior house painting! Generally speaking, we would agree that fall is one of the best times of year for exterior house painting because temperatures tend to stay within optimal parameters and there isn't too much humidity in the air. Spring is also an acceptable time since temperatures are usually milder compared with summer months; however spring may bring more rain showers than fall which could potentially delay your project if conditions become too wet.

When Should You Not Paint Outside of House?

The biggest factor in knowing when you should paint outside is understanding when you shouldn’t. Specifically, you should avoid painting outside if there are forecasted temperatures below 50 degrees Fahrenheit or higher than 90 degrees Fahrenheit within the next 48 hours. Additionally, you should avoid painting during high winds or periods of excessive humidity, as these can reduce the effectiveness of your paint job and lead to cracks, chips, or peeling in your paint over time.

Is Pressure Washing My House Before Painting Worth It?

In addition to avoiding certain times of year for exterior house painting, it’s also important to make sure that you properly prepare your surface before applying fresh coats of paint. One way to do this is by pressure washing your home before painting. Pressure washing removes dirt and debris on the surface while also helping to remove any old layers of chipped or cracked paint from previous jobs. It takes a lot of labor and expertise; however, it pays off in the end by giving you a smooth canvas with which to work on for a great looking finish.
