During winter, your home’s exterior paint may have been damaged by the harsh conditions. By repainting your home’s exterior in spring, you can fix the damage, improving your curb appeal. Here are a few reasons why you should hire exterior painters once the outdoor weather warms up. 

3 Reasons to Hire Exterior Painters After Winter

1. Repair Winter Damages

Winter conditions, such as ice buildups and hail storms, can cause your exterior paint to crack, flake, and peel. Inspect your home’s facade, and look for damage. If you notice any, hire a contractor to put on a fresh coat; it will fix those issues and protect it from rain and moisture, preventing mold buildups and siding deterioration.

2. Boost Curb Appeal & Value

Spring is a popular time for buyers to look at homes, as many people move during the summer while the kids are out of school. If you plan on selling, hire exterior painters to freshen up the color of your home’s siding, trim, shutters, and front door. Use shades and hues that match the other homes in your area and harmonize with the natural surroundings. Your home will look more appealing to buyers, increasing your chances of getting higher bids. 

3. Take Advantage of Good Weather

The cold season brings snowfall and ice storms that often delay painting projects by several days or weeks. During the spring, there are less inclement weather delays than in winter, keeping your project on schedule; this is important, especially if you plan on moving soon. Clement weather also speeds up drying times for paints and finishes.
