Three Reasons to Update Your Exterior Painting this Summer

Memorial day is right around the corner. (We know, we can hardly believe it too!) So now is the time to get your swimsuits out, dust off the playground equipment and start enjoying the warm, New Jersey nights. But summer also means a spike in outdoor chores, like landscaping and exterior painting. But don’t worry! We can do one of those chores for you. And while you might think it’s pointless to update your exterior walls, consider the benefits of a freshly painted home. Painting your exterior is essential for general upkeep, safety and home aesthetics, and there’s no better time to complete a project like this than the summer.

Here are three great reasons to get a Spectrum painting contractor to take a look at your exterior paint:

Increase property value
Looking to sell your New Jersey property soon? Updating your exterior paint is a great way to increase the overall property value of your home or business. Though the options for paint colors are endless for exterior paint, if you are updating your home to sell, painters often suggest paint colors that are neutral, such as white, gray or brown. These paint colors are versatile and easy to find, which makes the house painting an easy and enjoyable experience. If you’re not selling, you can still update your exterior paint (and it still won’t hurt your property value in the long run). Add some pizazz to your exterior wall paint. Consider a bold paint color for your door, shutters or even trim.

Increase and/or enhance the neighborhood
We all know that all it takes is one house to bring down the overall look of a neighborhood. If your exterior paint is looking a bit shabby, consider revamping it to not only improve your house, but the neighborhood as a whole. The look of your neighborhood is an extension of your home. Not only does exterior house painting enhance your neighborhood, but if your neighborhood is nice, the property value goes up for all homes in the area. It’s a win-win!

Improve landscape
Just like your landscape can compliment your home, your house paint can compliment your landscape. Our painters have years of exterior painting experience and can help you choose the best paint colors for your landscape. In addition, they’ll know exactly the type of house painting that works best for the New Jersey climate so it can withstand years of cold winters and hot summers.

There are so many great reasons to do some house painting this summer. With the help of Spectrum’s paint contractors, it’s an easy project that will not require much time and energy from you at all.

And while you are in the mood, consider wall paint for your interior. Adding a great accent wall or painting the deck is a great way to add some personality and longevity to areas throughout your home. There are many interior and exterior painting projects you can do to improve the look of your home or business. Interested in learning more about our services?
