5 Reasons to Paint in Spring

Posted on March 1, 2022

For some reason, most of us like doing things in the springtime. Maybe it’s the feeling of renewal or just the nice weather, but many of us feel the urge to repaint our homes in the spring. There are a few reasons why spring is considered by many the best time to paint your home. Today we will discuss five reasons why spring is a great time to paint.

The Weather Is Nice

The weather is usually better in the spring, so painting (especially exterior painting) projects can usually be completed quickly. Humidity levels can fluctuate in the spring, so it’s a good idea to watch the forecast and only paint when the air will be drier. It’s also a good time to schedule a paint company before the summer rush.

Lots of Sunshine

In spring, the days are longer so we have more time to do exterior painting. Of course, the abundant sunshine also helps because the paint dries faster. Spring weather also means unpredictable weather, so most pros take advantage and very quickly complete a project. Rain is the enemy of uncured paint, so painting in spring means using whatever the weather gives you.

Selling Your Home

From a financial viewpoint, selling your home in the spring will take advantage of the selling season. For this reason, repainting both inside and out will add curb appeal and draw the buyer’s attention. They will imagine living in the home at its most pleasant, greatly improving first impressions.

Throw a Gathering

There’s never a better time to paint than just before an important gathering. We love to show off our homes, especially when we have guests. Since summertime is party time, painting in the spring takes advantage of the weather, gets the job done quickly, and makes the home look great just when it counts.

Painters Are Available (If You Hurry)

If you are among those who prefer to hire professionals, spring is a fantastic time to book your appointment. You’ll need to hurry though, because spring and summer is prime time for painters. Appointments will book up very quickly when the time changes, so plan ahead while the booking is easy.
