How Paint Can Help Prepare for Winter

Posted on October 11, 2021

Your home is your defense against the elements. It protects you from precipitation and temperature. Paint is one of the most important and versatile defense systems homes have. With the end of the year quickly approaching, you’ll want to start to prepare for winter. In order to keep your home in tip-top shape during these winter months, our painters have compiled a list of our 3 reasons why painting can help prepare your home for winter. Let’s get started!

Inspect for Damages

Now is the time to go over your house and look for any paint that is showing signs of decay or weakening. You’ll want to catch and repair any imperfections in paint and structure before the wet and cold sets in for winter. If moisture can get under your paint film, you could be looking at significantly more damage by next spring.

Fix Your Caulking

Sealing cracks is imperative before the cooler weather rolls in. Not only will it keep the moisture out of your home, it will seal out those chilly breezes. Each crack, no matter the size, has the potential to decrease the efficiency of your home. By correcting cracks, you’ll keep the warm in and the cold out.

Work with Painting Experts

Scheduling your paint job can be difficult throughout the year. Painters have busy schedules and so do you! In the fall, however, painting companies open up more slots and do their best to become more available for clients. They know that once winter hits, fewer jobs will be available. Therefore, it is the best time to get on the painter’s schedule. You can get on the CertaPro Painters® schedule here!
