Whether you\u2019ve just moved in and want to give your home a new look or if you\u2019re preparing to show your space to potential buyers, there are endless ways to kick off the painting process. However, many are unsure about how often they need to repaint their home\u2019s exterior; is it better to do it routinely every few years or only when the paint is beginning to wear and fade? Here\u2019s what you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Paint Quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While lower-quality paints may be cheaper upfront, they don\u2019t look as good or last as long as higher-quality formulas. This just means you\u2019ll have to repaint even sooner, which isn\u2019t very cost-effective in the long run!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Siding Material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Brick siding needs painting every 15 to 20 years. Other durable materials like cement fiberboard and stone can last for 10 or so years. Wood siding tends to last 5 to 10 years, while stucco and aluminum siding generally remain in good shape for 5 years or more, depending on upkeep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Weather &amp; Climate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the area where you live is mild throughout much of the year, your paint should do much better than if it\u2019s constantly storming, snowing, or raining \u2013 even windier areas might see paint that doesn\u2019t last quite as long. Similarly, paint on homes near beaches tends to wear down faster, due to the salinity of the air and intense sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Wear &amp; Tear<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You might notice cracking, peeling, or bubbling paint if it\u2019s been a while since you\u2019ve repainted. Your colors might also fade and become muted. This sort of wear and tear is inevitable \u2013 no paint truly lasts forever. However, the longer the problems are there, the worse they\u2019ll become!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exterior painting comes with many benefits \u2013 not only will it revitalize your home\u2019s look and let you show off your style, but you\u2019re also boosting its value! By knowing how often you should go about this process, you can keep your home looking its best for many years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Platinum Painting of Fort Worth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team here at Platinum Painting of Fort Worth has proudly assisted homeowners all across the DFW metroplex for the last 15 years.
