Can You Paint An Exterior House in Davis CA During the Winter

Can You Paint An Exterior House in Davis CA During the Winter

If you are considering if it is ok to paint the exterior of your home during the winter months and live in Davis or a surrounding city or community, I hope to shed some light on this question below.

The short answer to this question is this: if the weather cooperates with the painters, then yes, it is safe and ok to paint during the winter months.

We do not have extreme temperatures like parts of the midwest and northeast. In those regions, most painting companies stop painting exteriors right around Thanksgiving. These companies typically paint only interiors until late March. Where their exterior seasons are typically 7-8 months, we in the Sacramento County areas have a bit more flexibility to paint outdoors.

What About When It Rains or Freezes?

Well, if you are from this area, you know that Dec-Feb can be very wet months. As I write this blog in December, we are having daily temperatures of 55-60 and lows at night of 40s and sometimes 32. The main thing that a professional painting company will do is keep a watchful eye on the temperature and make sure the paint used on your property will adhere properly to your home's exterior.

If there is a good chance of rain, fog or even freezing nights, these are not the best days to paint an exterior. Yet if there is not drastic changes in the weather and it does not rain for a number of days, sometimes a complete exterior can be painted!

When In Doubt, Trust the Professionals

If you are really eager to paint your home's exterior and don't want to wait, just trust a great painting company. They want their product to stick and last just as much as you do! A reputable painting company will work with you on when it is safe and ok to paint the exterior of your home.

If you have a question about your home or local business property as it relates to paint, please contact Brooks Painting. If you are reading this in the winter months, this is a great time for interior painting too! We are here to help and look forward to hearing from you!

Eric and his crew were on time every day and did a very thorough job. I was thrilled that they were willing to paint my outdoor light fixtures which were getting rusty. I was particularly impressed how much time they spent going over their work at the end to catch spots that were missed. I’ll be using them again for interior painting.

Bud was always available and extremely knowledgeable. He was always willing to go that extra step and also explain things thoroughly.

It was fun working with Chris and his crew. I’ve never had a contracted job go so smoothly from start to finish. The office was responsive to my needs, Corey was patient and helpful while I made color choices, and Chris made sure I was happy with the crew’s work every step of the way. Gabriel does amazing work as well. Very much a perfectionist like Chris. I don’t have a bad thing to say. The job is absolutely stunning and I’ve had so many neighbors tell me it’s beautiful. I’m happy to put one of your signs in my front yard if you’d like so people know as they drive by who did the work. Thank you Brooks Painting. I will be recommending you to anybody who asks.

Mark and the team from Brook’s Painting are exceptional at their jobs. We recently renovated a 5000sqft home and they did all the painting. Their attention to detail and investment in our project is so appreciated, and we knew we were in good hands with them. The value they add by identifying issues, making suggestions and going the extra mile to deliver quality work and make sure we are happy with our home is such a breath of fresh air. I would hire this team and company for any future work in a heartbeat and can’t say enough how amazing they are!

We are long time happy customers with many positive experiences with Brooks Painting. We have appreciated the assistance (and patience) with selecting paint colors, the professionalism of the staff and the high quality of workmanship. We recently had some interior painting done and the crew was on time, neat, careful inside the house and very easy to work with. They also cheerfully handled some unexpected drywall repair. I highly recommend Brooks Painting.

Teri Greenfield

Brooks did a fantastic job on our exterior and interior paint jobs. Quality was high, price was reasonable, and the team was extremely professional and detail-oriented. Mark was our crew lead and the team performed a number of exterior wood repairs, a door re-stain, interior and exterior painting. Mark clearly takes a lot of pride in his work and went above and beyond to ensure the work was high-quality, including finding exact matching siding to fix dry rot, and performing minor repairs that weren't even included in the quote. He and the team were all consistently positive and personable, joking with each other throughout the day, while also genuinely complimenting each other on the quality of their work. It was great to see, and that positivity definitely showed through the work they did. We couldn't be happier with the end result.

Chris and Gabriel were amazing. Corey was patient and helpful in answering questions and while I decided on colors. The office was easy to contact and had good follow-through. Thank you so much to Brooks for a job I could not possibly be happier with. Feel free to use me as a reference!

Brooks Painting painted our home in Sacramento in March of 2022. Tim did a great job power washing our home. Corey, Flint, and Kristen were very helpful in the bid and. planning. process. The painting crew was excellent. Arrived on time each day and the project was finished in 5 days as promised. All worked very hard.

M Hawkins

What a difference!! We hired Brooks Painting to do both an interior refresh painting and a completely new exterior color. Everything was handled professionally and as promised. The team, from estimator to office to painters on site, was responsive, friendly and skilled. Brooks Painting is the most reliable contractor we have ever hired. Thank you Jeremy, Dan, Israel, and Kristen.
