What Affects Exterior Paint Longevity?

Nashville weather can be hard on exterior paint. Heat, humidity, storms, moisture, mildew, and UV exposure can shorten the life of a paint job when the surface is not prepared correctly.

• Pressure washing before painting
• Scraping and sanding loose paint
• Caulking gaps and seams
• Priming bare or repaired areas
• Choosing the right exterior paint system
• Protecting wood, trim, brick, and siding
• Keeping surfaces clean over time

A long-lasting exterior paint job starts with preparation. The better the prep work, the better the coating can bond and protect the home.
