Peeling can result when wood enlarge and contracts from moisture, eventually causing a paint coating to loosen. Moisture reaches painted wood a number of ways: - Through uncaulked joints
- Through worn-out caulk
- Gutters full of ice or debris
- From moisture inside the building
- Through damp basements
- Painted boards too close to ground
- Plant growth
- Leaky roofs
Peeling can also result when painting over wood that has had insufficient drying time after exposure to moisture from rain, dew or pressure-washing.
