Exterior house painting for Gainesville stucco, block, and siding
Most Gainesville homes are stucco over block or frame, with fascia, soffits, and trim in wood or fiber cement. Each of those surfaces fails differently. Stucco cracks and chalks, wood fascia rots at the ends where gutters overflow, and old caulk at windows and doors splits and lets water in. Our exterior painters walk the whole house before the estimate, note every repair, and put it in writing so there are no surprises when the crew arrives.
Washing, repairs, and primer before any paint
An exterior paint job is only as good as what is under it. We pressure wash every surface to remove chalk, mildew, and dirt, then let it dry. Cracks in stucco are filled with elastomeric patch, failed caulk is cut out and replaced, rotted wood is replaced or consolidated, and bare or patched areas are spot primed. On chalky or previously failed stucco we use a bonding primer over the whole wall. Only then does the finish coat go on.
Coatings that hold up in Florida sun
We use 100 percent acrylic exterior paints rated for UV and moisture, applied in two coats at the manufacturer thickness. On stucco with a history of cracking we recommend an elastomeric or high-build coating that bridges hairline cracks. Trim and doors get an exterior enamel that resists scuffing. Every job ends with a walkthrough of all four sides with you, and touch-ups happen before we call it finished. The work is backed by our workmanship guarantee.
From our family to yours
An exterior repaint is a big investment, and for most Gainesville families it is the biggest painting job they will ever hire out. We understand that. The owner walks every side of your house with you before the quote, explains what the surfaces need and why, and puts it all in writing so you know exactly what you are paying for. We have painted exteriors on stucco homes in Tioga, block homes in Northwest Gainesville, and wood-sided homes in Micanopy and High Springs, and we treat each one like it is on our own street. If you need exterior house painters in Gainesville, FL, or anywhere within 50 miles, give us a call.

Exterior Painting we have done for our neighbors
How long does exterior house painting take?
Most single-family homes in Gainesville take three to five working days depending on size, repairs, and weather.
What time of year is best for exterior painting in Gainesville?
We paint year-round. In summer we plan around afternoon storms, and in winter we avoid painting when overnight temperatures drop below what the coating needs to cure.
Do you paint stucco houses?
Yes. Stucco is the most common exterior we paint. We seal hairline cracks and use elastomeric or high-build coatings where the surface calls for it.
How often should a house be repainted in Florida?
Every seven to ten years for a properly prepped and painted stucco home, sooner for wood trim in full sun. A repaint before the old coat fails is much cheaper than one after.
