Exterior House Paint
This is my second new build home in FL. The first home lasted 8 years before a repaint.
My house paint here started failing within 3 years and now 2 years later looks awful. I was told by the original painter/ supplier that it failed because they have to paint before the stucco has cured. Village rules to keep the house build 60 days or so. Great; now I have to spend almost 5K for a repaint. When I called Home Warranty they told me the builder paint needs to be redone after 2-3 years. BS if I have ever heard it. |
Mine lasted 6 1/2 years before I did it over. Painted the ground level 2 coats hired a guy for the peaks and the piece on the back roof. Getting to old for the roof as I don't bounce well anymore

If you had to paint your house every 2-3 years, after 15 years you wouldn’t see the stucco texture anymore. It would look like real $hit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
I painted my CYV for about 400 bucks and I used the expensive paint, S&W. I rolled it on, I didn't want to pay for the watered down spray job for 5k. That included corner lot wall inside and out.

Probably spray'ed it on with cheap paint and watered it down to rake in more profit? |

Loxon is a finish paint but it fades in 3 to 5 years. Your painter is right about the new construction time lines. All exterior paint should be back rolled so that it will weather evenly and to insure proper millage. IPC Rolls all houses in the villages. Len the retired half of the company. |
Get another estimate
I don't know how large your home is, but we just had ours repainted (2 coats......rolled on) for under $2,000. Give Oscar's Quality Painting a call 352-361-4414.

I painted my stucco house after it was one year old with Anchor Paint. That was 16 years ago, but now time to paint it again.

Oscars has done quite a few houses on our street and everyone is extremely happy getting a quote from them in the next couple weeks. Sadly we have a brownish color roof and not sure what color were painting this time. Right now it’s that pinkish beige really would like to go to with a gray but not sure how it’s gonna look with the roof

Have a LILY....stucco....built at end of 2012. I was bored last year and painted the house myself. Rolled on 2 coats.....with doing trim and all prep work...used 5 gallons of paint and done in 3 days. Used a paint stick and worked nicely. Have used them before. Total cost for all materials was $200.
