Get Ready for Spring with CertaPro Painters® of Lexington
Posted on March 31, 2026
The Bluegrass is turning vibrant green once again, and the blooming dogwoods are a reminder that the summer racing season is just around the corner. For homeowners in Lexington, Georgetown, and the surrounding Horse Capital communities, Spring isn’t just about getting the garden ready—it’s the golden window for exterior painting.
After a winter of freezing rain, Kentucky humidity, and fluctuating temperatures, your home’s exterior has likely taken a beating. Here is why scheduling your CertaPro Painters® of Lexington, KY project this season is the smartest move you will make all year.
The Bluegrass Spring Advantage
Painting in Central Kentucky requires specific timing. By booking in the Spring, we take advantage of:
- Optimal Curing: Before the heavy humidity and heat of July arrive, Spring offers the consistent, mild temperatures that allow paint to bond perfectly to your brick, siding, or trim.
- Moisture Defense: Winter storms and spring showers can trap dampness against your home, which leads to mildew and finish failure. A professional Spring wash and paint job resets your home’s protective armor.
- Beating the Summer Rush: Once the outdoor entertaining season hits full swing, local contractors are booked solid. Getting on the calendar now ensures your home looks pristine for those summer patio gatherings and neighborhood events.
Is Your Lexington Home Ready?
Take a walk around your property this weekend and look for these “red flags”:
- Fading from UV Rays: The Kentucky sun can be surprisingly tough on south facing walls. If your vibrant siding or front door is looking dull or chalky, the protective resins are breaking down and leaving your home vulnerable.
- Wood Rot on Trim: Check your window sills, door frames, and fascia boards. Trapped moisture from winter snow and spring rain can settle in, leading to soft spots that need repair before they spread.
- Peeling and Flaking: Constant expansion and contraction from temperature swings can cause paint to lift. If you see flaking, it is a clear signal that it is time for a professional refresh.
