How often should you paint your home’s exterior? Canyon Painting, your professional painting contractor in Sedona and Cottonwood, shares some insights designed to help you decide how often the exterior of your home needs to be painted.

Some painting professionals will tell you need to repaint the exterior of your home in as little as 4 to 6 years to keep it looking fresh; others will estimate as many as 15 years between each painting. Painting your home can cost quite a bit, so just how accurate are those estimates?

Here are some of the factors to consider when making your decision about when to paint:

  • Curb appeal. The condition of the exterior of your home is your home’s first impression to anyone who drives or walks by it.
  • Looking to sell? If you are considering putting your home on the market, the fresh look of a recent paint job is a must.
  • Location. Depending on where you live, the exterior paint on your home will have different needs. Coastal homes, for instance, endure intense sun, salty sea air and sand, and need to be painted often. Here in Arizona, we face similar extremes. Summers can be very dry and hot, yet broken up by the humid and stormy monsoon season.
  • Materials. Both the materials with which your home is built and the quality of the paint product affect the time that a paint job will endure.

Canyon Painting suggests considering things like curb appeal, the real estate market, location and materials when you are making your decision as to how often to paint your home.
