Ever painted the exterior of a house during the dog days of summer because you are worried about drying time? Instead of ringing out your shirt and trying to keep the sweat-sting out of your eyes, consider the benefits of exterior home painting during springtime.
This is the best time to find out what kind of beating your home has taken from the elements during the winter. Inspecting your home prior to paint preparation is a great best practice and allows you to find and keep small home maintenance issues from turning into large ones.
Increase Your Curb Appeal & Home Value
The positive benefits of having a home that's presentable to your neighbors and prospective buyers cannot be understated. Exterior paint and presentation on a home is one the biggest drivers of home buyers. Nobody wants to buy something that has trim paint peeling off the soffit and fascia boards. Increase the overall value with a fresh coat this spring.
Temperature
The temperature during the spring can be perfect for the painter and for the paint setup. Paint can bubble and look unsightly if applied to extremely hot surfaces during the sweltering summer months. Painting during warm spring days allows for proper curing and ensures that your finished product will be friendly on the eyes going into the future.
