There are lots of winter-time projects we can help you accomplish!<\/h2>\n

While we can’t paint exteriors in the winter, there are many things we can do during the winter to get your home ready for next year. This is especially helpful if you’re planning on putting your home on the market in the Springtime or need to spruce it up to rent it out.<\/p>\n

If we can take care of the following items during the wintertime, the last thing we’ll need to do is put the exterior paint on in the Springtime:<\/p>\n

Outdoor carpentry<\/strong><\/a>, including replacing rotted trim, deck boards, rotted clapboards, and shingles. \u00a0\"2<\/p>\n

Interior painting<\/a> and carpentry of all kinds<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"KitchenPainting kitchen cabinets<\/a><\/strong> is a favorite painting project for home sellers because it freshens up dark, dated cabinets for homebuyers who want a light, more modern look.<\/p>\n

Take a look at our updated painting schedule<\/a> to give you an idea of how soon we can start your interior painting project for you.<\/p>\n

Our carpenters can add crown moldings<\/a> and wainscot<\/strong> to your interiors to give them a finished look.<\/p>\n

We can replace your hollow interior doors<\/strong> with solid doors.<\/p>\n

When can we start exterior painting<\/a> in the Spring?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We usually start our exterior season in late March to mid-April, depending on the weather. We would never risk painting a home’s exterior when it’s too wet or cold because we want the exterior paint to last and because we warranty our work.<\/p>\n

We can still quote your exterior painting project in the winter.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Homeowners often forget that while we can’t paint exteriors in the wintertime, we can still give you a quote for exteriors during the winter<\/a>. By getting an exterior painting quote in the winter<\/a>, you can be one of the first houses we paint in the Spring.<\/p>\n

If you have any questions or want a quote on your painting project, email Paige at Pnejame@certapro.com<\/a>. We’re happy to answer your questions even if you’re doing the painting yourself.<\/p>\n
