The prep is the job.
Most peeling paint is a prep problem, not a paint problem. These photos are from a full stucco exterior the crew finished in Redwood City. This is the house before any color went on.
- Every stucco crack patched and blended
- Loose paint scraped off the fascia and trim
- Siding sanded back to sound wood
- Bare wood and patches spot-primed
- Windows and fixtures masked
- Cracked concrete steps repaired and recoated
Before and after
Same shed, same job
The siding was sanded back to bare wood and the fascia scraped and spot-primed. Then the body went bright white and the trim and fascia went black. Drag the slider to compare.

Do you do repairs, or only painting?
Both. Rotted trim and fascia, drywall, doors, baseboards and flooring prep are handled by the same crew, so the paint does not wait on another contractor.
