February is the “Month of Love”. Men give flowers, candy, and other gifts to their girlfriends or wife to celebrate. They may spend upwards of $250 to make Valentine’s Day special.
However, by the time Valentine’s Day is over, and the romantic moments have passed, all you have left is an open box of chocolates and a bouquet of red roses which will be dead in a week. If this sounds skeptical, that's on purpose. Of course, we are not against you taking your sweetie out and giving them a romantic evening, they may recall years from now. We are saying, though, that there is another way to make this month one your spouse will remember every day because they will see it every day!
We recommend that you give your love the gift of an exterior house painting! Here are some reasons that you should consider giving this most special gift:
Prevents Damage to your home: Paint is a barrier between your home and the elements. Sun, rain, snow, dirt, animals, birds, wind, and other factors beat down on your home’s paint. Eventually, it will create stains, holes, peeling, and cracking on your exterior. It becomes pretty noticeable and takes away from the attractiveness of your home.
Makes your home last longer. A repaint prevents rot, decay, and other causes of deterioration that can shorten the lifespan of your home.
Better energy efficiency. It sounds ridiculous but it's true. Repainting your home reflects what is away from your home in the summer so it’s cooler or reflects the sun in your home during the winter so it’s warmer.
Increases Curb Appeal: The new coat of paint on your home will make your home look attractive from the outside, which will add to the attractiveness of the property and neighborhood. It also may help you sell your home faster!
Saves You Money: Repainting the home exterior may cost you several thousand dollars. However, in the long run, it may save you much more. Since new paint prevents damage to your home, you won’t be spending as much money on repairs or replacements.
Adds Value: Painting the exterior of your home will increase its value of it! If you plan to list your home one day, investing in exterior painting should help increase the market value of your home when you sell it.
So, as you can see, painting the exterior of your home is a wise investment. Plus, it is something you will see every day, a gift that keeps on giving. Along with the chocolates, flowers, and romantic dinner, give her something she will love and see every day, along with you, a home exterior painting.
