When is the best time to paint the exterior of your home, office or commercial building?

The ideal time to paint and decorate your property is during a dry climate. You should not do so on days when it’s either too hot or windy because the paint will be at its best condition if applied in temperatures ranging from 10-30 degrees celsius (50 – 86 Fahrenheit). After waiting two or three complete drying days after rain, we can then get started with your external painting work after the correct preparation.

Reasons why you should choose a professional exterior painting service.

 

Professional exterior painting company.

They are experienced at what they do. Although you should always get several quotes from different companies before deciding on who to use, it’s always best to go with  a professional exterior painting company for the best service and value.

 

Best advice on Exterior Paint choice, colours and textures

A professional exterior painting company always provides a very high standard of workmanship when completing your project, they use top quality materials from reputed and trusted brands which include Dulux Weathershield and Johnstone’s Stormshield. They also have a variety of colours in their palette to pick from. Professionals know what paint colours to use in certain areas of the exterior, for example a darker colour near the shaded area of your home and a lighter one in the sunny area.

 

Our professional exterior painting company will always create an extremely high-end finish with little to no effort. This is done by applying several coats of paint on each section which ensures that it lasts  longer. Also, a professional company will always suggest the best type of paint for your house based on where it is located and what kind of weather conditions it experiences year long.

 

Financing your painting project – There are different kinds of offers you can get from a painting company in regards to financing your project. Some companies may offer free painting supplies while others might even offer a once-a-year financing special. The bottom line is that you need the best house painting company that will not let you go overboard with your finances.

 

There are some exterior painting companies out there that deal more specifically with commercial projects and have little to no experience on residential jobs. This can cause problems as inexperience causes many issues such  as incomplete work.

 

As with any commercial project, exterior painting is an important part of the process. Commercial property owners are aware of that and want their properties to look beautiful just like residential property owners do. However, there are some differences between residential and commercial exterior painting jobs that business owners need to be aware of in order for them to get the  best results and save money.

 

Difference between residential and commercial exterior painting.

Commercial property owners need to know that there are commercial exterior painting companies out there that deal more specifically with commercial projects and have little to no experience on residential jobs. This can cause problems as inexperience causes many issues such  as incomplete work.

 

Another difference between the two is the budget; professional exterior painting for a commercial building costs more than the cost of exterior painting for a residential building. This is because commercial buildings are typically larger, have more windows and doors, have different types of wall surfaces, require special preparation measures before painting can commence, have stricter health and safety requirements during the process, and usually need specific paints to be used.

 

Different paint finishes

Depending on a customer’s particular preference for their exterior house painting, is the materials used. There are different paints that can be used depending on what kind of wall surface there is, how long it will last, and what the homeowner wants the paint to look like after it has been applied. One common  exterior house painting material is flat paint. This type of exterior house painting is inexpensive and has a dull finish, which some homeowners may not want. An alternative to exterior house painting with flat paints is an eggshell paint. While it costs slightly extra, it gives an exterior house paint job a noticeably smoother and shinier look, making the  home’s exterior look much nicer after it has been painted.

 

Paint spillage protection

Painting the outside of a house also requires preparation to ensure that the job gets done quickly and correctly. One important step is to protect any plants or grass around the home from possible damage due to paint drips. We always take care of this beforehand, and can be easily solved by several dust or plastic sheets to cover the plants or grass. Another important step in exterior house painting is to make sure that the home won’t be damaged by paint drips from scaffolding set up around it during the process.

 

Permits

In some places there may also be legal requirements involved in painting residential homes, such as getting a building  permit. Professional exterior painting companies will be familiar with local regulations and can help their customers navigate these legal requirements.

 

Preparing the outside area ready for painting

As part of the exterior house painting process, painters should also move any outdoor furniture or other objects that might get paint on them to another location so they don’t have to carry them back inside after the house is painted. If  the painters are painting a fence, they should remove any hanging plants so the paint doesn’t drip on them and damage them. If there is any plant life growing close to the house, such as shrubs or bushes, home exterior painters may cut into these to remove them. Cutting into this vegetation will allow better paint coverage and help  prevent paint from running down the walls of the house. However, if there are vines or other types of climbing plant life growing on or near the house, they should remain intact to act as a barrier between the house and any climbing paint (such as dripping paint hanging off of extensions ladders).

 

House painting using a spray gun

House exterior painting is one of those projects that can really take a long time if done by hand, or it can be relatively quick and easy if the right tools are used. The various types of exterior paint sprayers available will make this outside painting project go much faster when compared to having to do it by hand with a brush or roller. Be sure to look at all options when considering what type  of paint sprayer you want to use for outside painting.

 

Increase value of your home 

There are numerous benefits that come from taking the time necessary to do a good exterior home painting project, and it is something that every homeowner should look into doing. One of the biggest benefits of a nice exterior paint job is that it will increase the amount of money that a house will sell  for at some point in the future. No matter what type of exterior paint job you are looking to get done, it is imperative that you look into all of your options carefully before deciding on anything.

 

Exterior House Painting Methods 

We use top quality exterior paint and proven painting techniques to make your project look its very best. Here are  a few of our exterior house painting methods.

 

Power Washing to Prepare Exterior Surfaces for Painting  

The first step in preparing your home to be painted is pressure washing . Our painters use the best equipment so you get a deep clean. We take care of all surfaces whether they are wood, concrete or metal by using low-pressure and  specialized cleaning solutions.

 

Preparation for Painting Your Home.

After the surface is ready, we apply a primer to seal and cover the old paint. Then, our painters add two coats of exterior paint to protect it from moisture damage. We have been using Dulux Weathershield paints for over 15 years because they provide excellent coverage in one coat and a 10 Year Limited Warranty.

Our good Information

We at Paint & Dec use high quality exterior house paint that is available in multiple finishes including flat, eggshell, satin, semi-gloss and gloss.

 

Our Nottingham Painters take advantage of the latest technologies to ensure you get the most durable finish possible for your house.

 

It is crucial to understand that painting a surface is just like putting on makeup, if you don’t prime your face, the foundation will not last.

 

Our company only uses primers that are specially designed to stick to surfaces and also provide protection against moisture penetration.

 

While choosing the exterior paint for your house you should keep in mind whether it needs an oil-based or latex exterior paint .

 

The most commonly used paints are oil paint, latex exterior paint, alkyd paint and acrylic exterior paints.

 

Oil-based exterior paints are more durable than their counterparts but they also take much longer to dry.

 

Latex Exterior Paint is a water-based colorant that can be easily washed away with water if it accidentally  spills over.

 

Alkyd paint is the best of the lot as it doesn’t fade or discolor for a long time and also resists moisture well.

 

Acrylic exterior paints are semi-permanent in nature and provide good protection to your house against rain water seepage.

 

It should be noted that when you choose an exterior  paint to paint a house, it should be best for the application.

 

For example if you are going to use an exterior paint on walls then do not buy a one that is meant for roofs as these paints will not cling well at all to smooth surfaces and may even peel off because of the kind of material they were made from.

 

A  good house paint will last long and not fade easily.

Best exterior paints for houses should be easy to apply and clean, even in case of accidental spills.

 

Water based exterior paints are the best when it comes to ‘low odor’ aspects and also very easy to clean up if any mistake has been made during painting.

Oil based  paints are not so easy to clean up and can stay on surfaces for a long time.

If you have pets or children then go with water based paints as they are non toxic, whereas oil based ones may contain some harmful ingredients.

 

It is also good to know the environmental preferences of an exterior paint that you want to buy. For example if you buy exterior house paint that is water based then you are helping the environment as well.
