For 22 years, JD Painting & Decorating has been helping Hawaiian homeowners on Maui and Kauai achieve their home improvement goals through their superior services. Summertime is an especially popular season for home renovations, and while it’s certainly possible to do exterior painting during this time of year, there are a few things that the professional team of painters at JD Painting & Decorating would like you to keep in mind.

Before you do a DIY exterior painting or choose to hire a professional, here are a few things to consider:

  • Think Surface Temperatures: While most parts of Hawaii maintain a comfortable 70-80 degrees throughout the year, sometimes the summer heat can climb as high as 90 degrees. With that being said, surface temperatures can spike even higher, so it’s important to consider the temperature of the surface you’re painting, and not necessarily the air, before beginning.

  • Summer Storms Can Wreck Wet Paint: Typically, summer brings only brief, passing storms to Maui and Kauai, but doing an entire exterior painting job when a storm could be moving in isn’t something you want to risk. With more than two decades of renovation and painting experience, the professionals at JD Painting & Decorating know when to move ahead with a project and when to put it off to preserve quality.
  • Don’t Skip Prep Work: Sometimes, homeowners think that because they’ve completed indoor painting in the past, outdoor painting will be similar. In reality, exterior painting requires much more prep work, including prewashing and thoroughly smoothing the surface from prior paint that has flaked. JD Painting & Decorating utilizes an efficient process for preparing exterior surfaces to ensure beautiful finished work.
