When it comes to exterior painting, most homeowners think of spring or summer as the ideal time to start. While it’s true that we can’t start the work until spring at the earliest, that doesn’t mean you can forget about it in the winter. Winter is actually the perfect time to start planning for exterior painting in NH. Our team at RP Pro Contracting doesn’t let any time go to waste, and neither should you!
Exterior painting in NH isn’t something you should put off. Here’s why winter is the best time to start planning this spring or summer project.
Get Ahead of the Busy Season
Spring and summer are the peak seasons for painting contractors, meaning their schedules will fill up quickly. If you start planning now, you can secure a slot for yourself on your preferred contractor’s schedule. Once you know you have a contractor lined up, you can take the time you need to select colors, finishes, and paint brands without feeling rushed.
Avoid Price Changes
The more in-demand a service is, the more you will have to pay for it. If you can get in with your contractor early, you are more likely to secure a better price. Many contractors offer discounts in the winter—even for work to be done in the spring—because it ensures them income in the slow season. You never want to book anything during its peak season if you can avoid it.
Weather-Resistant Preparation
Starting to plan in the winter gives you time to inspect your home’s exterior for areas that need repair, such as cracked siding, damaged trim, or peeling paint. This proactive approach ensures that any necessary prep work, like power washing or scraping, is completed well in advance so that when spring arrives, you can dive straight into the painting process.
Color Selection
Choosing the right color may very well be the most challenging part of repainting your house. You’re going to be stuck with it for a while, so you don’t want to make the wrong choice. If you start looking at your options now, you’ll have plenty of time to research trends and compare colors you like. Look at colors that complement your home and landscaping if you’re struggling with where to start.
