Peeling, Cracking, and Fading
Many homeowners and business owners experience frustration when their exterior paint starts peeling or cracking prematurely. This is especially common in Ferndale due to:
- Moisture exposure: With an average of 37 inches of rain and 8 inches of snow annually, high moisture levels can cause paint to bubble and lose adhesion.
- Temperature fluctuations: Cold winters (around 35°F) and mild summers (up to 72°F) can lead to the expansion and contraction of wood, weakening the bond of the paint.
- Humidity: Slow drying times during humid months can result in improper curing, causing early paint failure.
