Toppainting and plastering inc, we already have over 15 years of experience at painting , decorating and bathroom renovation I worked for 5 years in London,and my last 10 years in Massachusetts and South Carolina, What made us move to this beautiful city SC is the lack of qualified labor and qualified professionals and that is why we are here to deliver the best to each client. where we paint a house with a high finish and quality. I have a team of professional painters who all work under my supervision so that together with my crew we can offer guaranteed quality work. I would like to explain a little about the way we do exterior and interior painting. Pressure Wash Exterior JoMaxx, Bleach, Water, TSP, and AJAX. This solution is made to kill mold and mildew. Cleaning with bleach alone only dyes the mold and mildew and then forces the spore further into the surface. The addition of TSP helps remove oxidation and ensure a strong bond between the surface and the base coat. The addition of soap helps the chemical mix stick to the sides, allowing it to be the muscle that works the surface and allows for an easy lower pressure rinse. My method of extensive prep start with proper cleaning. Trench Perimeter and protect surrounding areas, as needed with plastic and/or tarps. Paper may be used on concrete walkways. Wire brush rusty and/or exposed nail heads, both in the siding and trim/trim accents. Set the nail. Spot prime each set nail with Rust Inhibitive Oil Primer, twice. This will encapsulate the surface rust and not allow it to continue the corrosion process. Repair the set hole. Repairs should be made with exterior grade spackling compound or wood filler. Sand repairs until smooth. Spot prime said repairs with an exterior grade multi surface primer. All of our internal work is done with festool machine, so that we minimize as much dust às possible and we like working with festool for the quality and finish these machines give to us

"Alex was on time and professional throughout our drywall project. He went out of his way to accommodate our timeline. His work was great and he kept our home as clean as possible. I'll be hiring him again!"

Exterior home or structure paint or stains FAQs

Start with a deep clean—most pros use a pressure washer to blast away dust and chalk. Patch cracks with masonry caulk, let them cure, then roll on an acrylic primer. Finish with two coats of high-quality exterior paint using a roller or, better yet, an airless sprayer for even coverage. Skip brushes on broad stucco walls; they’re slow and leave streaks.

Fresh paint seals hairline cracks, boosts UV resistance, and gives curb appeal an instant lift—often a plus when it’s time to sell. The trade-offs? Stucco requires a full cure before painting; the job is labor-intensive, and the wrong coating can trap moisture. Budget accordingly and use paint specifically designed for masonry to avoid peeling later.

When estimating the amount of paint you’ll need for a stucco house, plan on double the paint you’d use for smooth siding. A gallon that covers 400 square feet of flat wall often coats only about 200 square feet of textured stucco, so a 2,000-square-foot exterior may need 10 to 15 gallons.

Painting your stucco wall is a proven alternative to the expense and disruption of re-stuccoing the entire exterior. It refreshes the appearance and protects the surface without the investment of new material. Using high-quality, weather-resistant paint and following correct preparation procedures prevents moisture retention and ensures long-lasting performance. This method offers an efficient means to update your home while maintaining durability.

Rollers work, but an airless sprayer is the gold standard for full exteriors—it gets paint deep into the texture and speeds up the job. Reserve brushes for tight trim only. Whichever tool your exterior painting pro chooses, they’ll keep a wet edge and apply two thin coats for the longest-lasting finish.
