"This was an extremely large painting project that began in late March and finished up in Mid-June--nine-plus weeks in length. To go along with such a large project--and large expense--were a bit of nerves too. The church had been completely painted approx. 5 years ago by another contractor and the coating was already failing in a big way. Cyr Painting was highly recommended by one of the church Trustees who had Cyr Painting paint their own home one year earlier and were thoroughly impressed with their professionalism and quality. Cyr's formula to address the deteriorating paint was to completely strip off all old paint and build up a new foundation. A labor-intensive project. To reduce costs, Cyr used a spray-on paint stripper where they could to speed up paint removal. In the end, nearly all of the paint was removed, right down to bare wood. The bare clapboards were then sanded smooth with palm-sanders and the nails reset. A thinned coat of oil-based primer was applied. Next they filled any dents with an exterior wood putty and gave everything a quick sanding again. Wow, it was smooth! Then a full oil-based primer coat went on followed by two coats of a latex stain. A total of four coats of paint went on the church. At some point between coats of paint, they caulked around windows and clapboard ends. One window had some rotten wood along the window sill and vertical trim piece which they replaced and it blended right in. One of Cyr Painting's key assets is their employees. Extremely professional, polite, dedicated with a hint of being characters is a pretty good description. The two foremen or main "characters" are Ernie and Jeff. Two good loud-and-proud guys as well as the other painters on the team. And the owner, John Cyr, was super to work with. Extremely sincere and dedicated to doing the best job. Very mindful of the budget and even took steps towards the end of the project to stay close to the original estimate. With limited resources, the church greatly appreciated John Cyr's diligence in holding to the budget. As he said, his name and his company's name and reputation are on full display. All in all, we're very happy with the painting of our old and traditional New England church. Cyr Painting took the time and effort to ensure the church paint won't fail like the prior paint job. In fact, the New England paint representatives stopped by the church and said they would guarantee the paint due to all the preparations Cyr Painting had done. Do it right the first time and it will last. Highly, highly recommend Cyr Painting. One small reason why?... they even washed the windows, inside and outside before leaving. Not even the church has done that in a while. Jobsite was always clean and tidy too. Fantastic job. The church stands once again a proud and humble servant to the community and our Lord."

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.
