Summer is coming to a close here in Kelowna, so we thought we’d put some together some of the reasons why house painters believe painting in the fall is a great idea.

Lower Temperatures

The fall temperatures are perfect for painting the exterior of your home. The cooler temperatures allow for painters to get the job done without the heat beating down, which in turn leads to a better paint job. Extreme heat allows causes paint to dry unevenly, which will not look good in the end.

The cool fall temp also makes interior painting a little easier on you or professional painters, as the cooler temps allow for the windows to be open, which can quickly remove paint fumes from your house.

Humidity

Moisture is another thing to consider when painting your home. Whether you’re doing an exterior or interior paint job, the paint needs to dry properly to bond with the surface of your home. Moisture and humidity can have a negative impact on your paints lifespan, and as the seasons transition from summer to fall, humidity will decrease, which allows the paint to dry properly and last quite a while longer.

Preparing for the holidays

As fall approaches, so do the holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. The holiday season tends to be quite busy, so if you paint your home in the fall you will have your home ready and looking great for your guests when the time comes.

Flexible Schedules

Many painting companies start to slow down in the fall, meaning they will be able to work with your schedule a little easier than in the busy season. Lower demand may also lead to flexible pricing, and the job may get done a lot faster because of this.
