Exterior paint in Pensacola
Pensacola's rain doesn't take a season off. The regional airport's normals add up to about 68 inches a year, and every season gets a real share: close to 23 inches in summer, about 15.7 in fall, 15.2 in winter and 14.7 in spring.
With that much damp, mildew is the first thing to check for. It shows up as gray or black specks, most often on shady walls, under eaves and behind shrubs. It has to be killed and scrubbed off before primer goes on, or it grows right back through the new paint.
Closer to the bay, the sound and the Gulf, salt adds to it, and metal shows it first. Rusty gutters, railings and nail heads need treating, not just painting over, or the rust bleeds through the new color.
Close to 80,000 Pensacola-area houses were built before 1980, and their siding and trim have soaked up decades of this weather. On a house like that, the soft boards and stained patches are where a bid grows, so it pays to know where they are before the painter does.
