A fresh coat of paint does more than improve curb appeal—it protects your home from harsh weather, moisture, and aging. But how often should you repaint your house exterior? The answer depends on your siding type, exposure, and Kansas City’s unique climate.
Siding Type | Typical Repaint Interval |
---|---|
Wood siding | Every 3–7 years |
Aluminum siding | Every 5–10 years |
Stucco | Every 5–6 years |
Painted brick | Every 10–15 years |
Fiber cement siding | Every 10–15 years |
Kansas City’s hot summers, freezing winters, and occasional heavy storms can shorten these timelines. Regular inspections help you stay ahead of damage and fading.
Paint endures harsh sun, snow, humidity, and UV exposure. Shaded or moisture-prone areas are especially vulnerable to bubbling, mold, and mildew.
High-quality paint applied with proper prep and primer will last longer. If minimal prep or low-grade paint was used previously, your home may require repainting sooner.
Dark colors absorb heat and fade faster, while sun-facing walls experience more wear. Durable siding materials, like fiber cement or brick, extend paint life.
Watch for visual cues like:
Faded or chalky paint
Cracking, peeling, or bubbling
Mildew, wood rot, or water stains
Loss of curb appeal or outdated color
If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call Kansas City experts at Absolute Painting & Remodeling.
