Home Painting Packages in Palmetto & the Sarasota Area
Exterior painting for stucco and siding homes — often scheduled alongside a pool cage project since the crew is already on site.
Exterior Painting Beyond the Pool Cage
Most Florida homes are stucco, and stucco takes coating differently than siding — it needs the right primer to handle its porous texture and the black algae streaking (gloeocapsa magma) that's common on humid Gulf Coast exteriors. This service covers the rest of the home's exterior, and it's a natural add-on when we're already pressure washing and painting a pool cage on the same property.
Good Times to Consider This
- Visible fading, chalking, or peeling on stucco or siding
- Black algae streaking that keeps coming back after washing alone
- Selling the home and wanting curb appeal refreshed
- Already having us on-site for pool cage or deck work
Our Process
- Wash. Full pressure wash to remove algae, dirt, and chalking paint.
- Prep. Scraping loose paint, caulking gaps, masking trim and windows.
- Prime. Bare or repaired areas get primed before topcoat.
- Paint. Two coats of exterior-grade paint suited to stucco or siding.
What Drives the Cost
Total square footage of the home's exterior is the main factor, along with number of stories, trim detail, and how much prep the current surface needs — a home with peeling paint or heavy algae takes longer to prep than one that's just faded.
Why Choose JCR Pool Cage Services
We schedule around Florida's afternoon storm pattern so a coat isn't wasted to a surprise thunderstorm, and we're upfront if a job needs to be spread over a couple of days because of weather.

Frequently Asked Questions
What time of year is best for exterior painting in Florida?
The drier stretch from roughly late fall through spring is generally easier to schedule around than peak summer thunderstorm season, when afternoon rain can interrupt a multi-day job. We can still work in summer, just with more schedule flexibility built in.
Do you paint stucco as well as siding?
Yes — stucco is the most common exterior finish in this area and takes coating differently than siding; we adjust prep and product accordingly.
Can you paint the house at the same time as the pool cage?
Often, yes — if both need attention, doing them together saves on setup and pressure washing since the crew and equipment are already on site.
How do you deal with the black algae streaking common on Florida homes?
That's typically gloeocapsa magma algae — it gets pressure washed off with an appropriate cleaning solution before priming, otherwise it can bleed through new paint over time.
Do you offer a warranty on exterior painting?
We don't have a standard warranty program in place yet — ask us directly about your specific project and we'll be straightforward about what we can commit to.
