Why Winter is the Best Time to Paint Your Florida Home!
Posted on February 23, 2021
Here at CertaPro Painters® of East Broward, we see a similar pattern when it comes to exterior house painting. A lot of home owners wait until spring comes back around until they start thinking of having the exterior of their home painted. We know however, this is actually not the best time to have exterior painting done in Florida. Keep reading to see which seasons are the best and worst times to have your exterior painting project done.
Winter
Florida winters are between the months of October – March. In Florida, winter is actually the best time to have the exterior of your house painted. The air is less humid, it’s sunny, the wind is calm, and sudden torrential downpours are unlikely. You just want to make sure it’s not too cold the week you decide to have it painted, it should ideally be at least 50 degrees.
Spring
So what happens if you miss the window? That’s okay! Spring is your next best bet. The humidity is still reactively low during the spring months so you don’t have to be concerned about your paint not drying properly.
Summer
Summer can be a challenging month to have your exterior painted. With the combination of high humidity, high temps and high chances of precipitation and hurricanes, it’s best to avoid planning to have your home painted during the summer. However, if you absolutely have to have your home painted during the summer, CertaPro Painters® of East Broward will work with you and do our best in adverse conditions.
Fall
Fall is a better option than summer. The lower temps and humidity levels make for more ideal painting conditions. However, you do have the threat of hurricanes. As long as you keep up-to-date with the forecast before the painting project begins, you should be fine to begin a painting project in fall.
