Get Your Free EstimateStucco painting is more than just a color change; it's a critical maintenance step for your home's exterior. This service includes thorough cleaning of the existing stucco, necessary crack repairs, proper priming, and the application of high-quality, breathable elastomeric or acrylic paint specifically designed for stucco surfaces. The goal is to provide a durable, long-lasting finish that enhances your home's appearance and structural integrity.
When your stucco shows signs of fading, chalking, or minor surface imperfections, it's telling you it needs attention. Ignoring these issues can lead to deeper problems like moisture intrusion or accelerated material degradation. Our approach focuses on addressing these underlying concerns before applying any new finish, ensuring the paint adheres correctly and performs as expected for years to come.
In Lehi, the stucco on your home faces unique challenges. The intense summer sun can cause colors to fade quickly, while the freeze-thaw cycles of winter can stress the material, leading to hairline cracks. Proper stucco painting uses materials that can withstand these temperature fluctuations and offer UV resistance, preventing premature aging and maintaining the integrity of your home's envelope.
Many homeowners worry about paint peeling or bubbling. This often happens when the surface isn't prepared correctly or the wrong type of paint is used. We use paints formulated to allow the stucco to breathe, preventing moisture from getting trapped underneath. This careful material selection and preparation prevents common paint failures and ensures a smooth, uniform finish.
After the painting is complete, the stucco needs time to fully cure, typically a few days depending on weather conditions. We use paints that offer excellent adhesion and flexibility, providing a protective barrier that resists dirt and mildew. This means your home will look better for longer and require less frequent maintenance.
Lehi's climate presents specific challenges for home exteriors. The intense UV radiation from the high desert sun can rapidly degrade stucco finishes, causing them to fade, chalk, and lose their protective qualities. This leaves your home's exterior vulnerable to moisture and further damage.
Winter brings freeze-thaw cycles that can exacerbate existing hairline cracks in stucco. When water penetrates these cracks and then freezes, it expands, pushing the stucco apart. A fresh, properly applied paint coat acts as a barrier, preventing water intrusion and protecting the stucco from these damaging cycles. This maintains the structural integrity of your home's exterior.
Beyond protection, a new paint job significantly improves curb appeal. Faded or discolored stucco can make a home look neglected. A fresh coat of paint rejuvenates the exterior, potentially increasing property value and making your home stand out in neighborhoods like Traverse Mountain or Thanksgiving Point.
We clean the stucco thoroughly, removing dirt, mildew, and loose paint. Any existing cracks or minor damage are repaired to create a smooth, sound surface for painting.
A specialized stucco primer is applied. This step ensures proper adhesion of the new paint and provides a uniform base for the color coat, preventing blotchiness.
We apply two coats of high-quality, breathable elastomeric or acrylic paint. This provides durable color and a protective barrier against Lehi's weather conditions.
After the paint dries, we conduct a detailed inspection. We check for uniform coverage, proper finish, and ensure all areas meet our standards and your expectations.
