Best Time to Paint Outside

Painting the exterior of your building has been on your to-do list for a while. Finally, you’re ready to tackle enhancing your curb appeal—only to find out that the Maryland weather isn’t cooperating. So just when is the best time to paint your business’s exterior or hire a commercial painting contractor?

At Dulaney Painting, LLC, we get many requests for exterior painting services after it’s already too late in the fall. In order for paint to dry and to adhere properly, exterior painting must be completed when outside temperatures are at least 50 degrees or higher. Even though you’re itching to give your building a facelift, don’t risk getting a sub-par paint job. Your best bet is to wait until spring has finally sprung to get your commercial property’s exterior painted.

Maryland temperatures in October and beyond can easily be below 50 degrees, so we recommend that property owners turn their attention to interior painting services during the fall, winter, and early spring months. Maybe you can spruce up your bathrooms with a fresh coat of paint, or choose a new, modern wallcovering for your offices. Surely you have a few interior projects on your to-do list we can help you tackle as you bide time to start painting outside.

As soon as temperatures begin to rise in a few months, then we at Dulaney Painting, LLC will be glad to help you tackle your exterior painting. We promise that the wait will be worth it when your building is transformed and the paint lasts for years to come.
