How To Stain A Deck The Right Way Every Time

Paint Exteriors with Ease

Keep track of the weather

Make sure to start painting in a typically dry season, as paint requires time to dry. Avoid humidity as well.

The quality of the paint matters

When painting the exterior of your home, it’s better to splurge on high-quality paint for easier maintenance.

Rid the walls of anything rotting

Exposure to the elements can lead to rotting in materials. Remove these before you paint and save yourself the hassle later on.

Speed up the painting process

Use a paint sprayer when painting exteriors to make it easier to cover surfaces with paint quickly.

Add traction to surfaces

Painted porches and steps can be slippery; after painting, grind them with fine sand to provide traction.
