How to Paint During Orlando’s Rainy Season Without Delays
Posted on May 28, 2025
Orlando’s lush landscapes and warm temperatures are part of what makes it a beautiful place to call home. But from late May through October, Central Florida’s rainy season can pose serious challenges to home improvement projects—especially exterior painting.
At CertaPro Painters® of Orlando, FL, we help homeowners in communities like Winter Park, Lake Nona, College Park, Baldwin Park, and Dr. Phillips complete painting projects efficiently and successfully, even in the middle of the wet season.
The Rainy Season Challenge for Painting in Orlando
Orlando’s rainy season brings:
- Frequent afternoon thunderstorms
- High humidity
- Moisture-saturated surfaces
- Extended drying times
These conditions can lead to bubbling, peeling, or uneven paint application—unless you take a weather-conscious approach.
How We Keep Your Painting Project on Track
With deep experience in Orlando’s climate, our team has developed effective strategies to deliver high-quality results, rain or shine.
1. Real-Time Weather Monitoring
We closely track local weather forecasts to find dry painting windows. In Central Florida, storms often occur in the late afternoon, which allows us to schedule painting earlier in the day for maximum efficiency.
2. Flexible, Rain-Smart Scheduling
We work in phases and adjust timelines as needed—avoiding last-minute cancellations while maintaining quality control. Interior work is often prioritized on rainy days to keep your overall project moving forward.
3. Moisture-Resistant and Fast-Drying Paints
We use premium products like Sherwin-Williams Duration® and Benjamin Moore Aura®, which are formulated to resist humidity, mold, and mildew—perfect for Orlando’s subtropical climate.
4. Moisture Testing and Surface Preparation
Our crews use professional moisture meters to ensure surfaces are completely dry before painting. We apply mold-inhibiting primers and sealants to protect your investment for years to come. This helps make sure your home is prepped for painting!
Interior Painting as a Rainy Season Alternative
If exterior painting isn’t ideal on a particular day, we help clients shift focus to interior painting projects. From accent walls to full room transformations, your home improvement plans don’t have to pause for the weather.
Don’t Let the Weather Delay Your Dream Project
Rainy season doesn’t have to mean project delays or poor results. With expert timing, quality products, and a team that understands Central Florida’s climate, CertaPro Painters® of Orlando, FL makes sure your painting project stays on schedule and looks great for years to come.
