How long does exterior paint last in Michigan's climate? In Southeast Michigan, a properly applied exterior paint job typically lasts 7-10 years, though this varies based on:

• Home's exposure and orientation
• Quality of preparation and materials
• Surface type (vinyl and aluminum typically outlast wood)
• Maintenance practices
• Color selection (darker colors typically fade faster)

Our premium paint systems with proper preparation often extend toward the upper end of this range, even in Michigan's challenging climate.

What's the best time of year for exterior painting in Southeast Michigan? The ideal exterior painting season in Southeast Michigan runs from late April through October, when temperatures consistently remain between 50-85°F with moderate humidity. May through September offers the most reliable conditions. We can sometimes extend this window using specialized cool-weather products, but proper conditions are essential for optimal results.

• Average 2,000 sq ft home: 5-7 days
• Larger homes (3,000+ sq ft): 7-10 days
• Complex historical homes: 10-14+ days

Factors affecting timeline include necessary repairs, weather interruptions, architectural complexity, and color changes. Our team provides specific timeline estimates during your consultation.

How do you protect my landscaping during exterior painting? We implement a comprehensive protection system including:

• High-quality drop cloths and plastic sheeting
• Careful masking of windows, doors, and fixtures
• Strategic placement of ladders and equipment
• Daily cleanup of the work area
• Removal of all painting materials upon completion

Our professional painters are trained in careful work practices that minimize impact on your landscaping and outdoor living areas.
