Paint The Exterior Of A House

House exteriors are exposed to constant and differing weather conditions on a daily basis, so they require additional considerations than painting internal walls.

Preparing a wall for painting a wall should take half a day to a day, depending on whether you need to wait for fillers to dry.

Use drop sheets to protect any plants from paint drops and concrete to protect it from any potential spills.

Paint from the top down, beginning with the gutters. Once the gutters are complete, move onto the facia and the eaves.

Facias and gutters need to be painted with brushes.

Next move onto the walls. Finally move onto painting the windows. Make sure you move the windows while you’re painting to make sure they’re not painted shut.
