It’s generally recommended to wait about two weeks between pressure washing and painting. This allows enough time for all surfaces—especially wood or porous materials—to dry thoroughly. Painting too soon can trap moisture beneath the surface, which may lead to peeling, bubbling, or mold growth. Always ensure the surface is completely dry before beginning any priming or painting work. If the weather is cool or humid, drying times may be longer, so adjust your schedule accordingly.
Sounds silly, but we get asked this often. YES! We pressure wash in all weather but we do not paint in the rain.
It depends on the weather. While each season can offer opportunities for painting, temperature, humidity, and precipitation play a major role in determining when it’s safe and effective to paint. Most paints require a minimum temperature to cure properly, and high humidity or rain can prevent the paint from adhering or drying correctly.
For example, in spring or fall, you may only have a few good hours per day, while summer often provides longer windows—unless it’s too hot or humid. Always check the forecast and follow the paint manufacturer’s temperature and drying recommendations for the best results.
As long as the weather permits.
