Professional exterior painting is more than an aesthetic improvement. Did you know it's also an essential maintenance task? Keep scrolling to learn more.
Exterior Home Painting Protects Your Home
Your home should be painted once every 5 to 10 years. This helps ensure your house is safe-guarded from rain, weather, and other elements.
This time frame depends on a few things, like:
- The quality of the existing paint job,
- The type of siding material, and
- Your home's exposure to the sun
How Can I Assess the Quality of the Existing Paint Job?
We'd recommend walking around your exteriors. When you do so, look for signs of paint failure.
Paint failure includes paint that is:
- Peeling,
- Chipping,
- Cracking,
- Bubbling or blistering, or
- Fading
If you see paint failure, it's time to give us a call for a new paint job.

Our Exterior Painting Process
Did you know a quality paint job is more than just applying new paint? We handle the whole process for you.
Leave the Prep Work to Us
We never just splash paint on. Rather, we are meticulous in our work.
Our approach often begins with pressure washing. As well as hand washing where necessary. This important step removes dirt and other particles that would impact the longevity of the new paint.
The Erlanger exterior painters we assign to you will then prep everything that will be painted, stained, or otherwise finished.
The prep work can include:
- Scraping away old paint,
- Sanding rough surfaces,
- Applying caulk to hide seams, and
- Perform minor carpentry as needed to improve surface flaws
