Bathrooms fall into both these categories. Areas like hallways and entryways\/foyers tend to get a lot of foot traffic and action. Whereas laundry rooms may not be used as often, they can build up a lot of moisture that could eventually seep into and destroy your walls.<strong> These areas that are prone to moisture buildup should be repainted every 2 to 3 years, making sure to take care of any crevices where leaks may occur.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1521\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep.jpg 500w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep-480x288.jpg 480w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep-360x216.jpg 360w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1240\/2019\/05\/interior-prep-240x144.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Fifth Wall<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ceilings are not exposed to dirty fingers or brushes against them like walls are. Your ceiling will change color through sunlight and moisture causing a yellowing effect. Y<strong>ou can expect ceiling paint to last about twice as long as wall paint\u2013giving it up to 10 years.<\/strong> Because the most common color is flat white, the room will look 20% brighter with a new coating.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baseboards and Trim<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baseboards and trims are a completely unique element of your house to deal with. However, like those high-traffic areas, baseboards and trims typically face a lot of damage. They often endure vacuums, foot traffic, and runaway toys. <strong>We recommend painting these surfaces every two years<\/strong>. More importantly, though, make sure that you are cleaning these areas. Failure to do so will result in quicker paint deterioration and avoidable damage will pile up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paint Your Home Interior with CertaPro Painters\u00ae<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re unsure whether your <a href=\"https:\/\/certapro.com\/broward\/interior-painting-prep-guide\/\">home interior<\/a> needs a new coat of paint right now or if you are still wondering how often you should paint your house interiors, an expert may be able to help.
