Interior vs. Exterior Painting: What's the Difference?


When it comes time to paint your home, the first decision you have to make is whether you want to do the interior or the exterior. Both jobs have their own unique set of pros and cons, so it can be tough to decide which one is right for you. In this blog post, we will take a look at the differences between interior and exterior painting and help you decide which one is the best option for your needs.

First, the most obvious difference between the two jobs is that one is done inside your home (interior painting) and the other outside of it (exterior). The interior job tends to be much easier because there are fewer obstacles in the way. For example, if you want to paint the living room walls but there's a couch sitting in the middle of the room, you'll have to move the furniture out before starting. Also, the interior job is usually less expensive since it doesn't involve any major structural changes like adding windows or doors.

The second difference between the two jobs is that exterior painting tends to be much more labor-intensive than interior work due to the fact that the surface area is much larger and there are more details involved. For example, if you're planning on adding some trim around the windows or doors of your home then this will require extra time spent measuring the lengths of the boards needed as well as cutting them down to size before attaching them with nails or screws.

Thirdly, interior paint is usually a glossy finish while exterior paint is usually a matte finish. Glossy finishes reflect more light and can make the room look bigger, whereas matte finishes absorb the light and can give the room a cozy or intimate feel.
Fourthly, interior paint comes in many different colours while exterior paint only comes in a few shades. This is because the exterior of your home is constantly exposed to the elements, which can cause the paint to fade over time.

Finally, interior painters typically use brushes or rollers while exterior painters often use sprayers. This is because the surface area on the exterior of a house is so large that it would be impossible to apply the paint with a brush or roller.

So if the exterior of your home needs some sprucing up then the best option is to hire an experienced professional painter who can get the job done in no time flat!
