The frequency can vary largely based on the climate and paint quality. Typically, our specialists recommend a fresh coat of paint every 5 to 10 years, but harsh climates may require repainting every 3 to 5 years.

This range can vary depending on the materials that have been used. With Stucco we recommend every 5-6 years, wood sliding every 3-7 years and brick every 15 – 20 years.
