Exterior Painting Tips

By Wise Roofing, Reading

Spring has finally arrived in Britain and that can mean many home owners head outside to renovate their homes exterior. If you’re planning a project like this, it’s worth taking a few minutes to consider these tips from the experts.

1. Consider the weather Just because it’s a sunny day, doesn’t mean your house is primed for painting. Allow ample time following a damp period for your home to dry out.

2. Paint Quality The most important step to a quality paint job is using quality paint. A higher quality paint can ease application and keep your home beautiful for longer.

2. Priming In most cases, exterior walls won’t need priming, but some spots where bare wood is exposed will need priming. Using a quality primer should ensure your paint doesn’t fail again.

Wise Roofing are roofers, not painters, but spring is also the right time to have the outside of your home checked from the top down. If you are planning work on the walls, it makes sense to have your roof, gutters, fascias and soffits looked at first, so any leaks or rot are fixed before the new paint goes on.
