Why Spring is the Ideal Time for Exterior Painting or Lime Wash: A Lexington Perspective

Apr12024

Little old cute house with a blooming cherry tree.

As winter fades away and the vibrant colors of spring will soon emerge, this is the best time to give your home a fresh look. If you’re considering a makeover for the exterior of your house, there’s no better time than spring to call upon My Three Sons Professional Painting in the Greater Lexington area of Kentucky. Our more than 120 Five-Star Google Reviews affirm our earned reputation for being the best professional house painters in Lexington. This post explains why right now, as spring approaches, is the ideal time to call us to revitalize your home’s exterior.

1. Ideal Weather Conditions

Spring perfectly balances mild temperatures and low humidity, creating optimal conditions for exterior painting projects. Unlike summer’s scorching heat and humidity or the unpredictable storms of fall, spring provides a more stable environment that allows the paint to dry evenly, cure slowly, and adhere properly to surfaces. Our team of experienced painters at My Three Sons takes full advantage of these favorable conditions to deliver flawless results for your home.

2. Renewed Curb Appeal and Home Value

As flowers bloom and trees regain their lush foliage, spring brings a sense of renewal. You can enhance the beauty of your entire neighborhood and increase the value of your home by refreshing the exterior of your home with a new coat of paint or a stylish brick lime wash. Our expert home painters in Lexington, KY, specialize in transforming dull facades into eye-catching works of art, boosting your home’s curb appeal and value while leaving a lasting impression on visitors, passersby, and potential buyers.

3. Protection Against the Elements

The exterior of your home acts as a shield, protecting it from the harsh elements year-round. Over time, exposure to sunlight, rain, snow, ice, and fluctuating temperatures takes a toll on the integrity of your paint or lime wash. By scheduling a springtime painting project with My Three Sons, you’re enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home and fortifying its defense against weather-related damage, ensuring long-lasting durability and protection. New paint should be applied as soon as possible if there are any signs of paint failure (cracking, splitting, peeling, fading, bubbling, or chalking). This prevents the issues from worsening and becoming more extensive and expensive projects later. By getting it painted this spring, you’ll save money and protect your home.

4. Convenient Scheduling

Spring marks the beginning of the busy home improvement season, making it essential to book your painting project early to secure a spot on our spring schedule. As top-rated painters in Lexington, our calendar fills up quickly in April with eager homeowners looking to spruce up their properties. By contacting us early, you can avoid the rush and secure a convenient appointment time that fits your schedule, allowing you to enjoy your newly painted home sooner rather than later. If you wait until May to schedule an estimate appointment, there’s a good chance you will have to wait until mid or even late summer to paint your home when it is hot and humid, which is not the ideal time to do exterior painting.

5. Expertise and Experience

“We were very happy with My Three Sons Painting. Bryan and Roger are a great team, very knowledgeable and do quick work. We were not scheduled weeks out, just a few days unlike most other companies. Highly recommend if you want a job done quickly and timely.” Charlie, 5 Star Google Review

“I hired My Three Sons to limewash/paint my house and do some exterior repair work. The company was highly professional and responsive, and the guys that did the work were polite and efficient. There were some unexpected complications with the repairs, and My Three Sons handled the issue professionally without excessive extra costs. Communication was excellent throughout the process, and they reached out weeks afterwards to make sure everything was satisfactory. My project was outdoors, but every employee that I interacted with was pleasant and I would be comfortable hiring My Three Sons for work inside my home. I recommend this company to anyone who is considering hiring them.” – Kevin R., 5 Star Google Review

“We hired My Three Sons to remove the textured ceilings in a new home we purchased in December 2020. The job was sizable, requiring the removal of approximately 3400 square feet of textured surface. Tony, our project manager, successfully finished the job over a relatively short period with great care and attention to detail. Looking at our ceilings now, you would never know they were once textured–they are perfectly smooth, pristine, and look original to the house. Moreover, the removal of the texture brightened the light in our home significantly and modernized the overall look immediately. We can’t say enough about how professional My Three Sons was or what a great job they did. Amongst all the many, large-scale projects we tackled in our new home, refinishing the ceilings resulted in one of our favorite finished products and it is something we are so glad we did with My Three Sons.”

I just had four rooms painted by My Three Sons and they did an incredible job. Quick, neat, careful, well organized, conscientious, polite, always on time, and they did a beautiful job. I've never had a better experience with painters and have never had a project look so good. Travis, the crew leader, was always professional and a real pleasure to work with, the kind of person I was happy to trust with my home. Though they didn't submit the lowest bid, their price was very fair and very competitive and their thoroughness in assessing the job and preparing their estimate was impressive, head and shoulders above any of the others I called. It made it easy to choose them for the job. Keith, the owner, even helped pick out the colors.

We are so pleased with the work performed by My Three Sons Professional Painting. They painted the entire interior of our home and transformed our home. Travis and his crew were such a pleasure to have around, worked really hard, and cleaned up after themselves at the end of every work day. They certainly cared about doing a good job for us, and it was reflected in the finished product. During the middle of the project, we went out of town for a week. We felt very safe leaving them in our home knowing that they could be trusted with the keys to our home and that they would not cut corners on the job while we were away. Keith was so great to work with and followed up on every question or concern we had. We are happy that we chose My Three Sons Painting to do our job and will certainly call on them for any future painting projects we might have.

My Three Sons Painting never lets us down. We recently had our kitchen cabinets redone. They took so much time preparing them before painting and it shows. They turned out beautiful!! This was not the first time we have hired My Three Sons Painting and it definitely won't be the last!

I found My Three Sons online. They painted a door and frame, patched and painted a wall, and sanded, primed, and painted an unfinished fireplace mantel. Keith, the owner, was amazing. He was always on time, detailed with his assessment of the project, explained everything thoroughly, and was in contact with me regularly throughout the process. Best of all, Keith was able to schedule me in for the NEXT DAY - a SATURDAY since my project was fairly small and he had an employee willing to work a weekend. Keith came over the day painting began and went over the to-do list with the painter personally. He brought all of the supplies needed and checked in with me each day to make sure I was satisfied with the work. If I contacted him with a question, I heard back from him within minutes. You couldn't ask for a nicer, more professional guy. I felt like he genuinely cared that I was not only happy with the work, but the entire experience. I also felt that they made my time and schedule a priority. Ben, the painter who did the work was great as well. He showed up when he said he would, worked efficiently, was very neat, and was very courteous and polite. He did a wonderful job. Based on the above, I really have no reason to look for another painting company. I trust My Three Sons and plan to use them for all of our painting needs in the future.

My Three Sons Professional Painting came highly recommended to me by several neighbors and friends. The bid was accurate, the work was done as soon as my other contractors finished the exterior construction, and the painters were professional, efficient and kind. Keith and his whole crew were a pleasure to work with. My entire house looks just wonderful and I get great comments all the time from neighbors about what a nice job they did! I would highly recommend My Three Sons Professional Painting for interior or exterior painting on your home.

We originally obtained three bids to paint the interior of our house. Unfortunately, we elected to go with a local franchise of a national company that was less expensive. The online reviews were positive and a friend had used them with good results. This turned out to be one of the biggest mistakes we have made. Be aware that reviews may be crew-specific. Some of the individuals sent to paint our home were careless and borderline incompetent. We had to clean for about two hours each night after they left and the end result was much worse than if I had done the job myself. We then contacted Keith at My Three Sons to come in and paint the woodwork. I cannot express the difference between the two companies. Geyner and Christopher have cared for our home like it was their own. The workmanship is fantastic. These gentlemen are professionals and take pride in their craft; totally unlike our previous experience. I give My Three Sons my highest recommendation. Keith is a man of integrity and stands behind his company’s work. We will not waste our time with bids for our next painting job. I will consider no one else.

I wanted to commend My Three Sons Professional Painting Services (Painters in Lexington) for the job they did on the outside of my house. I hated the color of the brick and had tried to remedy by having someone else dye the brick; it looked like he had put graffiti on my house. Keith, the owner, did some research on what I could do to fix it. We decided on a lime wash paint and it looks great. I have had several compliments within just a few days. I will use them for any painting needs in the future as well

My Three Sons Professional Painting did excellent work at our home. We had our master bathroom, front entry and door, and our garage door painted. They always showed up on time, worked conscientiously, and the results were fantastic. Very professional job. I highly recommend them for any painting around your home.

We could not be happier with the quality of the work. The ceilings went from textured to absolutely flawless and smooth. The work was done in a very professional manner. There was virtually no dust and extra care was taken to protect floors and furnishings. They were prompt and the work was completed in an amazing timeline. We highly recommend My Three Sons to smooth out textured ceilings and also paint.Ava and Ken Taylor

Painters in Lexington - My Three Sons Professional Painting Services. We hired this company to stain our deck. It’s a new deck that we spent a lot of time (and $$) to build, so we wanted the initial staining to be done well to protect our investment. We got numerous bids and while My Three Sons was not the lowest price, they were an easy choice for our project. The initial estimate process was very professional, knowledgeable, and plan clearly explained. Follow-up calls were not done in an annoying/pestering way. When it was time to move forward, the communication moved to a different person, but the transition was smooth with no drop in customer service. The project started exactly when promised, the crew on-site was professional, stayed busy, and communicated very clearly when they were leaving both days for what to expect next. We’ve had our share of bad experiences with contractors not showing, communicating, poor quality, etc. My Three Sons has been the best contractor experience that we have ever had. When we’re ready for our next painting/staining project, we’ll definitely return to this company!

We had our house limewashed and we couldn’t be happier with the results. My Three Sons painting knew exactly what we were looking for. If you are looking for Lexington painters contact them. They were so helpful and easy to work with. We had a certain look we wanted and they were glad to repaint and rewash as much as needed to get the exact finished product.
