How Beaverton’s Climate Affects Your Exterior Paint
Beaverton’s weather presents unique challenges for exterior house paint. From rainy winters and moist springs to the occasional dry summer heatwave, the fluctuating conditions can wreak havoc on a home’s exterior—if it’s not properly protected.
At Mastery Painting, we specialize in choosing and applying exterior paints that are formulated to thrive in the Pacific Northwest’s diverse climate. Our approach starts with preparation, the most important step in making sure your paint job doesn’t just look great—it lasts.
Why Local Climate Matters Beaverton gets over 150 days of rainfall a year, and that moisture—combined with cooler temperatures—can cause cheap or improperly applied paint to peel, blister, or mold. UV rays in the summer can further fade and weaken the paint film. That’s why Mastery Painting only uses high-grade, weather-resistant paints designed specifically for residential exterior work in the Pacific Northwest.
We Start with the Right Prep Our exterior painting process includes thorough power washing, caulking gaps, repairing damaged siding, and applying the correct primers. This ensures a solid foundation before any color hits the walls. Skipping these steps is a major reason paint jobs fail prematurely.
Choosing the Right Paint We use premium paints from Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and other trusted brands, selecting formulas with UV protection and mold/mildew resistance. For homes surrounded by trees or near the coast, we may recommend additional coatings to help with dampness.
Local Knowledge Makes a Difference Because we live and work in Beaverton, we’ve seen firsthand how homes weather through the seasons. We’ve painted in every neighborhood—from the wooded corners of Neighbors Southwest to the newer developments in South Beaverton—and understand which colors, finishes, and prep methods stand the test of time.
Maintenance Tips for Homeowners After your home is painted, it’s important to maintain it. We recommend annual inspections for peeling or chipping, trimming back plants near walls, and washing your home at least once a year to remove debris and prevent mildew.
Mastery Painting also offers maintenance packages that include yearly touch-ups and evaluations, so your exterior always looks as good as the day we finished it.
In a climate like Beaverton’s, the right paint job is an investment—not just in appearance, but in protection. Let Mastery Painting help you protect your biggest asset with durable, beautiful results that are built to last.
