Springtime Renovations: Exploring the Benefits of Exterior Painting This Season

It’s that time of year once again. The days are growing longer, the weather is starting to warm up, and many people are looking to freshen up their properties. A fresh coat of exterior paint can not only enhance the look of your space, but can also protect against harmful UV rays and other environmental elements. There are many reasons why spring is one of the best times to paint the exterior of your property. Let’s take a look at three main reasons why our experts at Mike’s Quality Painting recommend exterior painting in the spring.


Preparing for the Upcoming Weather


Ensuring your properties are ready to endure extreme temperatures is imperative when entering the summer months. Having an extra layer on the outside of your space can help protect and prevent extensive damage to your property. As the temperature starts to drop, exterior paint can also help prevent damage caused by snow, sleet, rain, and other environmental elements. Exterior painting and staining can also help maintain the property's structural integrity by protecting against the growth of mold and mildew. By choosing to paint the exterior of your property in the spring, you can have peace of mind knowing your home is protected while heading into the upcoming seasons.


Selling Your Home


Summer is a popular time for selling homes, and painting the exterior can boost the value as well as improve the curb appeal. You may have heard the expression, "First impressions are long-lasting,” well, that rings true for your home as well. When people see the outside of your home, they will form an instant impression. Ensuring your home has a good curb appeal can have a major impact when selling your home as well as indicate that your home is well-maintained. Painting your home in the spring can put you on the right track to selling your home in the summer.


Ensuring Office Success


Painting the exterior of your commercial building is a cost-effective way to help strengthen the outer surface of your building while also elevating curb appeal. A fresh coat of paint can help attract more customers and show your clientele that your building is in tip-top condition. But painting your office building isn’t just about aesthetics, it can also help protect against future weather changes and harsh weather conditions. As mentioned above, summer can bring extreme heat which may damage the structure of the building if there isn’t a strong coating protecting it. Ultimately, we know that your company

is an important investment, and we want to ensure protection for many years to come.


Spring is a beneficial time to paint the exterior of your property to advance its look, value, and sustainability. Exterior painting can seem like a daunting task, which is why it is crucial to choose the right company to ensure success and satisfaction. At Mike’s Quality Painting, providing excellent customer service and quality work is paramount. Our experts use quality materials and follow proper application processes to ensure durable protection and transformative color for years to come.
