Exterior Painting FAQs
How much does exterior painting cost in Tampa?
The cost of exterior painting in Tampa typically ranges from $3,000 to $8,000 for an average-sized home, depending on square footage, number of stories, surface condition, and paint quality. During your free consultation, we'll inspect your home and provide a detailed, transparent estimate with no hidden fees or surprises.
How long does an exterior paint job last in Florida?
With proper preparation and premium paint, an exterior paint job in Florida typically lasts 7 to 10 years. Florida's intense UV, humidity, and rain can shorten paint life compared to cooler climates, which is why we use UV-resistant, mildew-proof paints and invest heavily in surface preparation to maximize longevity.
How long does it take to paint the exterior of a house?
Most exterior painting projects take 3 to 7 days depending on the size of your home, weather conditions, and the amount of prep work required. This includes pressure washing, scraping, priming, and applying two coats of paint. We always provide a timeline upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
What type of paint is best for Florida homes?
We recommend 100% acrylic latex exterior paints with built-in UV protection and mildew resistance. Brands like Sherwin-Williams Duration and Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior are specifically formulated for hot, humid climates. For stucco homes, we often use elastomeric coatings that flex with the surface and prevent cracking.
Do I need to pressure wash before painting?
Absolutely. Pressure washing removes dirt, mildew, chalking, and loose paint — all of which prevent new paint from adhering properly. We include professional pressure washing in every exterior painting project at no additional charge. It's one of the most important steps for a long-lasting finish.
Can you paint stucco exteriors?
Yes, we specialize in painting stucco homes — one of the most common exterior surfaces in Tampa. We use specialty elastomeric and masonry coatings that bond to stucco's textured surface, fill hairline cracks, and provide a flexible, breathable barrier against Florida's moisture and heat.
Are you licensed and insured for painting in Florida?
Yes. Fresh Start Exteriors is fully licensed and insured in the state of Florida. We carry general liability and workers' compensation insurance to protect you and your property. Our owner Anthony personally oversees every painting project to ensure it meets our high standards.
