3 Exterior Paint & Maintenance Tips for Longmont, CO Homes

Posted on May 17, 2022

If you have recently invested in an exterior painting service or are thinking of scheduling one, it is important to take the necessary steps to maintain your new paint. Here at CertaPro Painters® of Boulder and Longmont, we value providing homeowners with the tips they need to help their home maintain its curb appeal. Below are a few of our recommendations for keeping your Longmont home exterior looking its best this summer season.

Watch for Exterior Weathering Over Time

While most exterior paint will last for a few years before starting to show signs of age, cities with more seasonal weather changes can expect to need more routine maintenance. Here in Longmont, CO, we see the most frequent changes from fall to winter and winter to spring. As we experience seasonal changes, it is not uncommon to notice paint peeling or color fading as a result of higher amounts of precipitation or sun exposure. If you have noticed these issues along the exterior of your home, reach out to our professional painters to schedule your next exterior painting service today.

Keep Your Home Exterior Free From Dirt & Mildew Buildup

Dirt can easily accumulate on your home’s exterior and it is even more nautical if you have a light colored exterior paint color. While you can periodically clean your home exterior by hand with a mild cleaning solution, we recommend scheduling an exterior power washing service. Power washing is the best way to remove dirt, bacteria, and even unsightly mold growth from the exterior of your home in the Longmont, CO community. You can request a free estimate on your next power washing service by completing our online form.

How to Maintain Exterior Wood Surfaces

Do you have an outdoor deck or patio? Our Longmont, CO painters also specialize in refreshing wood surfaces with a new coat of stain. Wood is another exterior surface that sees the most weathering during seasonal changes. If your deck is looking a little worse for wear, adding a new coat of stain can create a beautiful and inviting environment for your outdoor entertainment areas.

These are just a few of the ways we can keep your home exterior looking brand new. Request a free estimate on your next exterior painting service today!
