Don’t be afraid to follow up and have daily check-ins during your exterior paint job
In New Zealand, it largely depends on the type of paint used, the material of your home’s exterior, and your local climate.
Generally, it’s recommended you repaint every seven to 10 years. Homes in coastal areas may need more frequent repainting, perhaps every five to seven years. This is due to the harsher effects of salt spray and high humidity, which can accelerate wear and fading.
Similarly, properties exposed to extreme sunlight or in areas with high precipitation might require more regular maintenance.
Using high-quality, durable paint and performing regular maintenance checks for signs of peeling, cracking, or fading can extend the life of your paint job.
Regular cleaning and immediate attention to any damage can also prolong the periods between repaints.
