Contrary to popular belief, fall can be a great time to start a painting project you\u2019ve been putting off for a while. Largely due in part to advances in paint polymer technology, we now have paint that can be applied at lower temperatures, and with a quicker dry time. All this, and not having to deal with the rain and heat of summer, can make fall the perfect time for your painting project.<\/p>\n

Why Paint in the Fall?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Extreme temperatures can cause paint to dry unevenly. Depending on where you live, in the fall, the temperature is more likely to be stable throughout the day, and over the course of a couple days. This creates great conditions for applying even, steady coats in a shorter amount of time.<\/p>\n

Another important consideration when painting your home\u2019s exterior at any time of the year is moisture. Paint needs to be applied to dry surfaces in order to yield the best results, and snow, rain, and humidity can negatively affect the application process and longevity of the paint.<\/p>\n

Protecting Your Home<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If humidity and moisture are factors you may need to deal with year round, then fall may be the perfect time to protect your home and prevent future damage. Many homes can suffer structural damage caused by wood rot that ends up costing more in repairs the longer it is left unchecked.<\/p>\n

If you want to prevent wood rot, there are a few key places you\u2019ll want to keep an eye on to protect and keep sealed. Areas like plywood sheathing, crevices and holes in the caulking around windows, doors, dryer vents, etc., and cracked or peeling paint, especially in areas exposed to direct weather are particularly vulnerable. Exteriors painted with water repellant paints or stains will keep the dreaded moisture out.<\/p>\n

Sherwin Williams Resilience\"sherwin<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the leading products in water repellant paint is Sherwin-Williams Resilience Exterior Acrylic Latex<\/a>.
