When is the best time to start your facade renovation project?
Is there an ideal moment to start your facade renovation project? We have found the end of the spring and through the summer is the best one to install or replace your facade. The main reason being the weather tends to be more stable, with lower rainfall, consistent temperature, no strong winds. Now we know the ideal time, let us to share with you a few tips to keep in mind before starting any construction works?
First things first, how often should you renovate your facade?
The period between each renovation largely depends on the material you opted for in the first place and the weather conditions of your region, as well as other external factors. However, according to some experts, facade repairs should be carried out once every 10 years. The lifespan of your facade is also impacted by the way you care for it. Regular inspection of your facade will help detect potential issues that minor maintenance could solve.
Your sidings may still be in good condition, however you may decide to improve the thermal performances of your house by adding insulation.
Which weather conditions are best for a renovation?
As previously mentioned, construction work is best planned for the end of spring and through summer, with expected lower rainfall and increased daylight. At this time of year, it is best to avoid the warmer times of the day and plan work to be carried out in the morning or later in the day.

Especially owners of older houses should use the warm months, i.e. spring or summer, to carry out necessary work on their house or have it done. In this way, the poorly or insufficiently insulated facade will not become a major cost factor for another winter.
If you want to paint your façade, you should consider a few weather factors. The spring months can bring long rainy days. It is important to wait so that the facade of your house can dry out, because painting in unpredictable spring weather can lead to poor paint application. However, if the weather is too hot, the paint may dry too quickly and leave brush marks or streaks of paint on the façade.
