Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior House Painting
Interior and exterior paints have different properties. Interior paint is designed to be easily cleaned and scrubbed with household products, while exterior paint is formulated to resist fading, mildew, and other weather-related elements.
Painting during the right season ensures the paint cures and dries properly. Summer and early fall are typically the best times to paint your house, as temperatures remain stable with minimal fluctuations.
Interior paint is not suitable for exterior surfaces, as exterior paint is specially designed to offer better protection against weather conditions.
Most professionals aim to complete their painting projects during the warmer months, as the weather conditions are more conducive to effective results, both indoors and outdoors. However, timing isn't always ideal, and other priorities may cause delays. While paint behaves differently in cold temperatures, winter days—especially in Florida—can still offer plenty of opportunities to get the job done correctly
