Refresh Your Home’s Exterior this Summer

With the Summer months upon us, temperatures are rising both inside and outside of your home. If your home has an outdoor area attached to it such as a porch or patio, it’s likely that you’re spending more time out there than ever under some shade trying to beat the heat. When was the last time that you gave that part of your home a refresh? If you’re going to be spending more time outside this Summer, why not repaint the exterior of your home so that you can proudly invite some guests over to join you so you can show off a stellar new look for your home. Not only will the change in the appearance of your home be good for you, but it’ll be good for your home as well. We can also service your outdoor areas with a new deck or fence staining.

A new coat of paint provided by CertaPro Painters can mean far more for your home than just a new look. Here are just a few of the reasons that you should work with our team of professional painters this Summer:

• • • Curb Appeal: This is the obvious one. A new coat of paint can make a home that once looked older look brand new again. In turn, a simple coat of paint can raise the resale value of your home or property quickly. If you’re thinking that you’d like to relocate at some point over the next few years, now is a great time to beat the markets and start preparing your home for sale.
    • Value: We don’t take calling our painters “professionals” lightly. When you work with us, you can feel confident that the job is going to be done right. There won’t be any stray paint markings or ladder scuff marks on your home’s exterior when we leave you with our final product. Painting is what we do best, and years of experience makes our team superior to our competitors.
    • Durability: We understand the complexities of painting in the Summer months well. As we work with you, we’ll be taking every step possible to ensure that our work is being protected from debris, wildlife and weather conditions. When we’re finished, we’ll present you with a coat of paint that was carefully prepared which will stand the test of time.
    • Safety & Security: The Summer months can be hot and arduous, especially with heatwaves hitting across North America throughout this past June. Heat exhaustion, rain, and other weather factors are real concerns on a job site. That’s why our painters are continuously trained on the best safety measures that they can put in place on each project. Leave climbing the ladders and painting along the gutters to the professionals, and take a break while you watch your home’s exterior transform.
    • Enjoyment: We fully understand that painting your home’s exterior yourself can be an enticing endeavor. However, we also know from experience that many DIYers are left lost on how to tackle the complex issues that come up with such a large painting project. Hire a team of professionals and rest assured that from your first phone call until the job is done, our painters can handle the hard work. We’ll work safely and efficiently to present you with a final product suited to your needs in a timely manner at a fair price.

As a general guideline, most experts recommend repainting the exterior of a home every 5 to 10 years on average. However, you should inspect your home’s exterior regularly for signs of wear and damage and consider repainting sooner if you notice:

• • • Peeling or cracking paint: This indicates that the protective barrier is compromised.
    • Fading: Significant fading of the paint color is a sign that the paint is losing its effectiveness.
    • Visible damage: If there is visible damage to the siding or other exterior materials, addressing it promptly and repainting may be necessary.

Overall, a new coat of paint could be exactly what your home needs this Summer to stand out from the others around it. Impress your neighbors and your guests with a brand new exterior painting project or a deck/fence staining. Schedule an estimate today!
