Our skilled painters can remove years of wear-and-tear and make your home look new again with professional Calgary Stucco Painting Services.
Painting your home’s stucco is a great money-saving and future-proofing solution. Years of wear-and-tear from harsh Calgary winters can be addressed with Calgary stucco painting. Not only does this achieve a value adding “facelift” for your home’s exterior, in the long run it will help save you money on exterior repairs and even prevent a costly replacement.
It is a fact that Calgary’s unique weather changes and temperature fluctuations can cause your stucco to expand and contract, resulting in visible hairline cracks much quicker than in other areas of the country. Along with dirt, dust, and debris that become encrusted within the stucco surface, your home can end up looking tired and worn-out.
These hairline cracks can advance into more serious problems as they expand and contract, creating vulnerabilities to your building envelope where wind, water and even insects can find access, creating further damage and also affecting your home’s energy efficiency.
As our high-quality paint converts your stucco into a revitalized water-repellent exterior, you can be assured that your newly painted stucco exterior will lock out moisture to prevent future cracking.
After the painting is complete, our high-quality stucco coating will be an effective barrier against weather, stains, mould, and mildew.
Your home will look refreshed, updated, and clean all year long. It really is the best decision you can make for your exterior!
Who doesn’t want their home to appreciate in value? Having well-painted stucco on a property can increase the value of your property for several reasons. Firstly, it’s fire resistance, low maintenance, rot resistant, sound dampening, and energy efficient. It adds great curb appeal to a property as well. Some homes with stucco can even apply for improved home insurance premiums.
Installing and drying of stucco only takes two days on average. Painting it often is just as quick depending on the individual project. That means our professional team will be in and out of your way before you know it.
Has the stucco of your home unfortunately worn down over time and doesn’t look as appealing as it used to? No problem. Earl’s Paintworks will bring it back to life with a meticulous painting process that prevents future damage and gives it a beautiful look all year around.
You know as a homeowner that maintaining your property takes a lot of work. Stucco makes your life easier by being low-maintenance in nature. It does not need to be repainted often, but when it does, you shouldn’t wait. Having it painted will invigorate your home’s appearance and simplify all of its benefits. Stucco is also great in Calgary to keep as much snow away from walls and tough to reach areas. You can pressure wash stucco more easily than other services which Earl’s Paintworks can take care of for you as well.
A stucco house should be painted every 5-10 years, depending on the quality of the previous paint job, the climate, and the condition of the stucco. Regular maintenance and inspections can help extend the life of the paint.
To change the color of stucco, you can either paint it with a high-quality, breathable masonry paint or apply a new layer of colored stucco. The latter option is more durable and offers a longer-lasting color change.
Yes, painting over stucco is a good idea if done correctly. It can enhance the appearance of your home and provide an additional layer of protection against the elements. However, it’s crucial to use the right type of paint to allow the stucco to breathe and prevent moisture issues. Hiring professional stucco painters is the best way to paint your stucco properly.
Whether it’s better to re-stucco or paint a house depends on the condition of the existing stucco. If the stucco is in good condition, painting is a more cost-effective option. However, if the stucco is damaged or you want a significant change in texture, re-stuccoing may be the better choice. Damaged stucco may be salvageable with stucco paint, but a more extensive stucco repair may require you to re-stucco your house.
The best time to paint stucco is during dry, mild weather, typically in the spring or fall. Avoid painting in extremely hot or cold conditions, as well as during the rainy season, to ensure the paint adheres properly and dries evenly.
Signs that your stucco needs repair before painting include cracks, bulging, discoloration, or crumbling areas. Moisture stains, efflorescence (white, chalky residue), and soft spots are also indicators that repairs are needed before applying a fresh coat of paint.
Traditional stucco is made from a mixture of cement, sand, and water, and is applied in multiple layers to create a durable, hard surface. Synthetic stucco, also known as EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish System), is a multi-layered system that includes a foam insulation board, a base coat, and a finish coat. Synthetic stucco is more flexible and energy-efficient but can be more prone to moisture issues if not properly installed.
