Exterior Painting in Jacksonville, FL

Wood siding, brick, stucco and fiber-cement repaints for Jacksonville, Orange Park, Fleming Island and the Beaches.

Exterior Painters for Jacksonville's Mix of Materials

Unlike most of Florida, Jacksonville has a large share of wood-sided homes, concentrated in Riverside, Avondale, Ortega, San Marco, Springfield, Murray Hill and older parts of Arlington and Mandarin. Wood expands and contracts with the region's real seasonal swings, so paint has to flex, and prep has to be thorough: scraping, sanding, priming bare wood and replacing failed caulk. Brick homes in Mandarin and the Southside need masonry primers and breathable coatings. Stucco and Hardie board in Nocatee, Ponte Vedra and Fleming Island need crack repair and 100% acrylic topcoats.

We match the prep and product to your home's material and exposure, rather than running one process on every house.

Historic Homes in Riverside, Avondale and San Marco

These homes are worth protecting and worth doing right. We hand-scrape and sand rather than blast, follow lead-safe practices on pre-1978 homes, and use oil-based or bonding primers on bare old-growth wood.

We also choose colors that respect the architecture, and your neighborhood's historic guidelines where they apply. Porches, columns, brackets and window trim get the same attention as the siding.

HOA Communities in Nocatee, Ponte Vedra and Clay County

Newer communities across St. Johns and Clay Counties require architectural approval for exterior colors. We help you pick from the approved palette, provide color codes and product specs for the application, and build approval time into the schedule.

Humidity, Shade and Mildew

Jacksonville's tree canopy and river humidity mean many homes have permanently shaded, north-facing walls where mildew thrives. We wash with a mildewcide, prime affected areas and use mildew-resistant acrylic paint. On heavily shaded homes we may recommend a slightly higher sheen on the body, which sheds moisture better than flat.

Exterior Painting FAQ for Jacksonville

How much does exterior painting cost in Jacksonville?
Most single-family exteriors fall between $3 and $7 per square foot. Wood-siding homes with heavy prep are at the top of the range; newer stucco and Hardie homes at the bottom. We quote in person and in writing, free.
How long does exterior paint last in Jacksonville?
Properly prepped stucco and Hardie board: 7 to 10 years. Wood siding: typically 5 to 8 years depending on exposure and shade. Good prep is the biggest factor.

Yes. We use masonry primer and breathable coatings designed for brick. We'll also discuss limewash or mineral-based options if you want a softer look.
Do you paint Hardie board or fiber-cement siding?
Yes. Hardie takes 100% acrylic paint very well; we caulk joints and prime cut ends and patched areas first.
