Have you noticed that the exterior of your home doesn't look as good as it once did? Perhaps the paint has become discolored or has begun to peel or fade. You may be concerned that your home is losing its curb appeal. You also want to know that your home is properly protected from the elements. All of these are valid reasons to consider hiring Moore Painting to repaint your home. Our professional exterior painters have been providing exterior house painting services to the Canton MI area for more than 10 years and have the ability to make your home look new again.
Benefits of Exterior House Painting
There are many benefits to repainting the exterior of your home. Here are three of them:
1. Increased Curb Appeal
There is an old saying that you only get one chance to make a good first impression. The same is true for your home. If you are considering selling your home, you want a potential buyer to form a favorable impression the moment they arrive. Otherwise, they may assume that your home hasn't been properly maintained. Even if you have no plans to sell, you still want to present a good image to your friends and neighbors. The most compelling reason to repaint your home, though, may simply be the smile on your face when you see how good your newly painted home looks.
2. Better Protection from the Elements
A good coat of paint seals surfaces and helps to protect against rain, sleet, snow and ice. Without such protection, the surfaces of your home may absorb moisture. This can cause them to bend, bow and curl, which can result in loose boards and exposed seams. Unprotected surfaces can also suffer from dry rot and termite damage that can total thousands of dollars in damages. A good quality coat of paint, though, applied by our professional outside house painters, can restore your home's paint finish and protect it from the elements.

3. A New Look
Another benefit of exterior house painting is that it can give your home a completely new look. Perhaps you bought your home because you loved its features, but you were never completely happy with its outside appearance. Or maybe you have simply grown tired of the way your home looks. In any event, our exterior painters can help you achieve a completely new and more modern look. You can be as imaginative as you want with paint colors and finishes. A fresh coat of paint applied in the right way can transform your home into something that your neighbors will be envious of.
Surface Preparation
In order to achieve a first-rate paint job, outside house painters must properly prepare the surfaces to be painted. First, the old paint must be clean so that the new coat of paint will adhere to it. If it is dirty, moldy or mildewed, it will need to be power washed. Chipped and curling paint will have to be scraped. In some cases, sanding the surfaces may be required. Cracked seams will also need to be re-caulked. Our exterior house painting experts will make sure that all surfaces are properly prepared. Then, they will apply a quality primer coat of paint before beginning the finish coat.
Professional Exterior Painters versus DIY Projects
Perhaps you are good at DIY projects and have considered painting the exterior of your home yourself. While you may have that ability, you should be aware that many homeowners have been completely overwhelmed at the enormity of such a task. Surface preparation followed by two coats of paint is extremely labor intensive. In addition to that, you need the right equipment and may have to work at uncomfortable heights, especially if your home has multiple stories or high gables. Working off a ladder can be dangerous and should be left to professionals in most cases.
