Pintura Exterior FAQ

Every time. Pressure washing is the first step on every exterior paint job we do. South Florida homes collect mold, mildew, dirt, and salt buildup fast. If you paint over that stuff, the paint will not stick and it will peel within a year. We pressure wash everything, let it dry, then scrape, prime, and paint. That is how you get a finish that actually lasts.

We fill and repair stucco cracks before we paint. Miami homes shift with the soil and weather, so hairline cracks are common. We use flexible filler for small cracks and do proper stucco patching for bigger ones. Painting over cracks without fixing them first is a waste of money because they will come right back through the new paint.

With proper prep and quality paint, an exterior paint job in Miami should last five to eight years. The sun, rain, and humidity here are brutal on paint. That is why we use premium coatings rated for UV and moisture resistance. Cheaper paint might save you upfront but you will be repainting in two years. We do it right so it holds up.

That is most of what we paint. The majority of homes in Miami-Dade are CBS construction, which means concrete block and stucco. We know exactly how to prep and coat these surfaces for a long-lasting finish. We use masonry primers and elastomeric or acrylic coatings designed for this type of exterior.

Exterior painting typically runs between $3,500 and $12,000 depending on the size of your home and how much prep work is needed. A smaller single-story house on the lower end, a larger two-story with lots of detail work on the higher end. We give you a detailed estimate before we start so you know exactly what you are paying for.

Yes, we paint everything on the exterior. Trim, fascia, shutters, doors, garage doors, front porches, all of it. We use the right type of paint for each surface. Metal gets a rust-inhibiting primer. Wood gets sealed and coated properly. We make the whole house look consistent and sharp from the street.
