Is it too late to paint your Exterior?

Oct 21, 2015

This is a subtitle for your new post

Around the end of August, the season begins to change. The sun doesn’t shine as much during the day, and the temperature goes from the mid 90’s to the high 70’s. During this change people don’t seem to question whether or not it is the appropriate temperature to paint the exterior of their home. It is common to think that if it is still warm enough to be comfortable outside, than the weather is perfect for painting. But what about when those warm days begin to dwindle away? What about the days when you can see your breath outside, and the sky is filled with clouds? When is it no longer an option during the season, to paint the exterior of your home?

During the beginning of the fall season, painting companies begin to get a lot of calls from customers who forgot to paint their home during the summer, but would still like it done before winter arrives. The most common question that we get is, “Is it too cold to paint outside?”. The answer to that question isn’t as complicated as people might believe.

When it comes to the exterior painting season, it’s not really a question of, “Will the paint work?”, but it is more of a question of, “Are these current environmental factors going to effect this job?”. When you are painting the exterior of a home later in the fall, you not only have to consider the temperature outside, but also the temperature at which the workers can work their best. No matter what temperature the product you’re using will hold at, it won’t do you any good if it is no longer a safe temperature to work in.

The bottom line is, if you’re considering painting your home during the fall season, even if it is a little cold outside, as long as weather permits it, and it is safe for the workers to be in that temperature, do not hesitate to get an estimate. Fall is a great time to paint the exterior of your home before the holidays arrive.

Amazing Brick Makeover Changes

By prpwright • 29 Apr, 2020

You don’t have to settle for old, red brick on either your Exterior of your home, or for your Interior Fireplace. Many homeowners are updating the brick on the Exterior, or partial brick on the front of the Exterior, and changing the color to a more updated white, off white, or even light gray such as the photo below. Having the right painting company do the work, with the right application process, is very important. Not only is the specific Materials used important, but also having highly skilled painters/ painting contractors doing the work is a must. Changing the outdated red brick Fireplace is another option that homeowners have. Not only does it look like a brand new fireplace, it also brightens up the room when a white or off-white color is used, such as the photo below. Dont “settle” for what you have, either when you buy a new home, or when you have lived in the home for many years. A facelift does wonders for the appearance, and you will love to show this off to your friends and family members.
