Placeholder ImageWhy Exterior Painting is Best Done During Summer Here is a helpful guide to help make sure you make the most out of the summer when it comes to painting the exterior of your humble abode.

Like most homeowners in the mid-atlantic, the summer months can be quite brutal — and come a lot quicker than expected. In fact, after spending most of the spring season inside with lower than normal temperatures, it’s finally time to enjoy the outdoors — especially if you have a home that has an outdoor living area. The reality is, many homeowners go out of their way to prepare their overall home for the warmer months ahead. Ultimately, if you are planning on having your home’s exterior updated with a fresh coat of paint, now is definitely time to do so. Here is a helpful guide to help make sure you make the most out of the summer when it comes to painting the exterior of your humble abode.

Longer Days Are Beneficial

There is no denying that having longer days means that there are statistically just more opportunities for your painting job to be accomplished much quicker than it might otherwise. In fact, since the days are longer during the summer season, the extended amount of sunlight is an excellent way to allow paint to dry significantly faster than it would otherwise. The reality is, bringing some charm back to your home can be accomplished by a fresh coat of paint. Ultimately, summer is really the perfect time to tackle an exterior painting project.

Warm Weather Days Are Ideal For A Paint’s Finish

Just like the efficiency associated with warmer weather, the longer sunshine also means that your paint finish can look it’s best overall. In fact, when outdoor temperatures tend to fluctuate too frequently, then you might end up with streaks or other issues in the paint’s finish as it dries. The reality is, exterior paint thrives in temperatures that are warm and consistent. Ultimately, waiting until the summer to actually tackle an exterior home painting job will surely be your best bet if you want the end result to be optimal.

Less Rain To Ruin The Project

One of the biggest perks associated with painting the exterior of your home in the summer is the significant reduction in rain during the summer season. In fact, a rain delay is one of the main reasons an exterior painting project gets delayed. The reality is, with the summer season, there is a significantly reduced chance that a rain delay will occur — making it the best season to tackle the job effectively and efficiently.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
