Spring is the Best Time To Paint Your House

Once the weather moves from the colder temperatures of winter to more warm and pleasant ones, homeowners begin thinking about all the home projects they’d like to complete. House painting is often on those to-do lists. But when is the best time to tackle an undertaking like that? At Franklin Painting LLC, we want to share why we believe spring is the best time to paint your house.

The temperature is right

We already mentioned the warmer temperatures, so let’s start there. Most outdoor paints will perform the best in more forgiving weather. If it’s too hot, your paint will dry too quickly and result in an uneven finish. This could possibly even lead to earlier-than-expected cracking and peeling, undoing all of your hard work.

Moderate temps that remain consistent throughout the painting and drying process will ensure your color goes on smoothly and cures properly. That’s reason number one why spring is the best time to paint the exterior of your house.

Get in before the schedule fills up

Reason number two is simple: it comes down to timing. We only have a fairly short window of time in the spring months where the weather is most ideal for painting. As such, quality painting company schedules start filling up quickly.

Here at Franklin Painting, we’ll do everything we can to accommodate our customers’ needs. Nevertheless, you don’t want to wait to long to book your appointment with our team.

Landscaping and preparing to sell

Here are two more connected reasons why spring is the best time to paint your house. First, let’s talk about landscaping. In the early spring, plants and other foliage have not fully bloomed yet. This allows for easier access to all areas of your home’s exterior.

Second, spring is a popular time to list your home for sale. How does that tie into landscaping? That’s easy: potential buyers are looking for something that stands apart from the rest. Your landscape is a big part of that, while a fresh coat of paint goes a long way toward maximizing your curb appeal. Likewise, you’re more likely to see a better selling price by painting your home before listing it for sale.

Spring is the best time to complete home repairs

This reason also ties back to temperature. During winter, your paint has potentially fallen victim to trapped moisture, cracks, mildew, and other damage. Assessing these problems and repairing them quickly is important. Fixing problems before painting is vital to proper home maintenance.

And, since the weather is milder in the spring, repairs can be done quickly and without causing too much inconvenience.

Our team is here to help

Painting your house on your own is certainly doable. However, for the majority of homeowners, it’s a necessary home project that they don’t have the time for.

And that’s where we come in. Our team will freshen your home’s exterior, leaving your home with a professional, attractive appearance. Would you like to learn more? Then call Franklin Painting LLC at 877-646-7774 or get in touch via our contact form.
