How Often Should I Paint the Exterior of My Home? Part two
Last month, we presented Part I in our series on how frequently you should paint a home’s exterior. We’re continuing on with tips that will help you make this important decision.
Plan to Repaint Every Five to Ten Years
As a rule of thumb, if you reside in Santa Clarita, you will need to obtain painting services or do the painting yourself every five to ten years
Give Your Home a Radically Fresh Look
If you are seeking to sell your home, then, by all means, you should make painting a priority. Statistics reveal that repainting a home’s exterior, not to mention its interior as well, is the surest way to increase the real estate’s selling potential and worth.
Yellow is a Friendly and Popular Choice in a Paint
When you do repaint, you should carefully consider the color too. Studies reveal that most homes that are sold quickly are painted a pale-yellow hue. If this color goes well with the shade of your roof, then this is one color you may want to select. Buyers also like neutral colors such as cream or off-white.
Select a High-Quality Paint from the Offset
The quality of exterior paint you use will definitely impact the condition of a house’s exterior. You simply will have to paint your house more often if you choose to use cheaper paints and tools. In fact, if you use cheap paint initially, don’t be surprised if you see the paint peeling or chipping after only a couple years.
Keep the Structure of Your Home in Tip-top Shape as Well
Paint that is higher quality also keeps walls from contracting or expanding. Painting with a high-quality paint lengthens a home’s construction, all which lessens the occurrence of any underlying structural problems or deformities.
