I'm trying to figure out the best order to handle a few home projects that I have lined up: roof repair, window replacement, and exterior painting. Any advice on what should come first and why? Thanks!

I'd recommend starting with the roof repair first. After that, go for window replacement, and finish up with the exterior painting. If you replace windows after painting, you might have to repaint the areas around them, which can make things look a bit messy. Also, keeping your house protected from leaks is key!
Exactly! Are you planning to handle gutters as part of this process?
In my experience, tackle the biggest leaks first, so either the roof or windows, depending on what’s leaking more. Then get to the other one, and lastly, do the painting. It’s all about protecting your home from water damage!
Definitely start with the roof repair. It's crucial for protecting your home from water damage. Then, go for window replacement since that might scuff the walls, and you wouldn’t want to repaint twice. Finally, do the exterior painting to cover any marks left from the other projects and give everything a polished look. Don't forget that a good paint job also protects from elements!

You’re absolutely right! Thanks for the advice!
