Exterior Painting in Greeley CO
It’s no secret that Northern Colorado and the Greeley area can offer conditions that are more extreme than other parts of the country. From intensive sun 300 days of the year, to snow, ice, and moisture, altitude, and wind, the elements can severely impact exterior painting. Fortunately, our team is well prepared to handle the regional conditions and deliver long-lasting exterior painting results that will impress your neighbors and leave you thrilled with our service.
Curious How We Ensure Longevity for Exterior Painting Projects?
With the strong Colorado elements in Greeley and across the Front Range, we take special consideration to produce long-lasting results that will withstand a host of weather and climate factors.
- Sun: At high altitudes, like in Greeley, the sun's rays are stronger, which means paint blisters and fades more easily. Lighter colors, however reflect more sunlight and fade less than darker colors, while UV-resistant painters and finishes, and primers with UV protection can added additional layers that preserve color and consistency.
- Snow and Moisture: When moisture gets into surfaces, paint can bubble or peel. This water infiltration can be pronounced on improperly prepped surfaces so we ensure that all exterior surfaces are clean, dry, and moisture-free prior to painting. A mildew-resistant or waterproof paint can help, as can water-resistant finishers when sealing wood surfaces.
- Dust: We know our region can be dry and windy at times, and with that brings dust, which can prevent an even application of paint. For this reason, we monitor wind forecasts so that our exterior painting occurs on calmer, dust-free days.
- Cold: Low temperatures can slow down work, due to longer drying times and curing challenges, which in turn may degrade appearances. We use cold-weather paints to handle our climate, and focus exterior work during daytime hours when conditions are warmer.
- Temperature Fluctuations: Whether cold or warm during the day, temperature swings can occur when the sun goes down. An "elastic" or "flexible" paint can prevent cracking and peeling that would otherwise occur due to temperature-related surface expansion and contraction.
We factor all of this in when painting your exteriors. Whether we’re touching up your roof or fencing, redoing the primary exterior surfaces of your home with a bold new color, or applying that first coat to your new storage shed, our knowledge of best practices and leading techniques will always be put to your benefit.
