A good stucco paint job in Fish Hawk starts well before the first coat hits the wall. Every surface needs power washing to strip off dirt and chalk, every crack patched and caulked, and a bonding primer rolled on.
Whether your home is a ranch in Fish Hawk Ranch or a Mediterranean style with heavy texture, skip those prep steps and Florida’s sun and humidity will peel that new paint in under two years.
We don’t call a job done until you’ve walked the exterior with us and signed off on every wall.
