How often should you repaint your home?

Most homes need exterior repainting approximately every 8–12 years, depending on the building materials, the quality of the previous paint job and the level of exposure to sun, wind and rain.

In coastal areas like Auckland, salt air, moisture and strong UV can cause paint to deteriorate more quickly, making regular maintenance even more important.

Signs your home may need repainting

If you notice any of the following, it may be time to refresh your exterior paint:

• Fading or uneven colour caused by sun exposure

• Peeling, bubbling or flaking paint

• Cracks in paint or exposed timber

• Mould, mildew or staining on surfaces

• Weathered or chalky paint that rubs off on your hand

Addressing these signs early helps prevent moisture damage and protects exterior materials from deterioration.
