It’s Time for an End of Summer Refresh
Posted on August 12, 2025
As summer winds down across the Lehigh Valley, it’s time to give your home a fresh boost. Between family gatherings at SteelStacks, strolls through the Allentown Art Museum, and Labor Day plans near Lafayette College, your home’s exterior has weathered quite a bit. A late-summer paint refresh can revitalize your curb appeal and protect against seasonal stressors.
Why Late Summer & Early Fall Are Ideal for Painting Here
Balanced Weather Conditions
Unlike the scorching heat or high humidity of midsummer—which can impact paint adhesion—the late summer into early fall offers milder temperatures perfect for a durable finish. Experts note that painting performs best when temperatures range between 50°F and 85°F and humidity stays below 70%.Shield Against Regional Wear
The Lehigh Valley’s climate combo of heat, humidity, and occasional rainstorms can dull siding and trim. Fresh paint acts as a protective layer against moisture, mold, and fading.Better Availability & Timing
As the busy summer season tapers, scheduling becomes more flexible—and often quicker. While fall may bring unpredictable weather, late summer remains a sweet spot for both contractors and homeowners in our region.
