ⓘ The Short Version

A New Leaf Painting Contractors has been repairing and repainting stucco across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida since 2001. We look at the wall before we price it — what has cracked, what has been patched before, and what is still holding paint. Traditional stucco and EIFS need different handling, and not every house needs an elastomeric coating. Repairs come first, coating second, and both go on one written scope so one company is accountable for the finished wall.

Stucco Looks Solid. Until It Isn’t.

From the driveway, most stucco problems look small. A thin crack running off a window corner. An old patch showing through the paint. A rust-colored streak under a light fixture. A patch of coating starting to bubble on the side of the house that takes the afternoon sun. Some of that is routine. Some of it should be dealt with before another two coats go over it.

A hairline crack is often just the wall moving the way stucco moves. But when the same crack keeps reopening through an old repair, when a patch line telegraphs through every repaint, or when white powder and staining show up in the same spot every summer, the wall is telling you something. That is worth understanding before you spend money covering it.

As a Jacksonville painting contractor that has been working on stucco homes here since 2001, we assess what is visible and we are straight about the limits of that. We will tell you which repairs belong in a painting scope and which do not. If something looks like it is coming from behind the wall — a moisture source, movement we cannot account for from the outside — we say so and point you toward the right trade instead of guessing at it.

Most of the homes we look at do not need major stucco work. They need the right repairs in the right places before the repaint starts.

Repair first. Coat second.
Product selection follows the wall condition.

🏛 What Homeowners Usually Call Us About

Stucco repairs

  • Hairline cracks and cracks that keep coming back
  • Cracking at window and door corners
  • Failed patches and patch lines showing through paint
  • Hollow, loose or delaminated sections
  • Efflorescence and rust staining

Prep & coatings

  • Peeling, blistering or chalking coatings
  • Failed caulk at windows, doors and transitions
  • EIFS and synthetic stucco recoating
  • Washing, prep and full exterior repainting

👥 One Company, One Scope

The usual alternative is hiring a stucco contractor to patch the wall and a painter to cover it — then refereeing between them when something shows through a year later.

We handle the visible stucco repairs, the prep, the caulking, the priming and the exterior repainting as one scope. One crew. One written estimate. One company accountable for how the wall looks and performs when it’s done.

🌧 Why We Don’t Quote the Same System Twice

The Wall Decides the System. Not the Sales Pitch.

Elastomeric coatings are the right call on a lot of Jacksonville stucco. They bridge fine cracking and they hold up well here. They are not the right call on every house. Put a heavy elastomeric over a wall with an unresolved moisture source, or over a coating that is already letting go, and you can seal in the problem you were trying to solve. Plenty of walls do better with a masonry primer and a premium acrylic system.

Some of it comes down to breathability. Coatings differ in how easily water vapor passes through them, and on stucco you generally want the wall able to dry outward while the surface still sheds rain. In this climate, getting that balance wrong is how walls end up blistering.

Traditional stucco and EIFS are not the same wall. Traditional stucco is cement over lath or block. EIFS — synthetic stucco — is a thin finish over foam board. They take on water differently, they repair differently, and they recoat differently. Knowing which one you have comes before any conversation about product.

What We Look At Before Specifying Anything
  • What is already on the wall, and how well it is holding
  • Crack pattern and width, and whether it has been repaired before
  • The substrate underneath and how porous it is
  • Visible moisture clues — staining, efflorescence, chalking
  • Which elevations take the sun and which stay damp longer
  • Traditional stucco or EIFS

Depending on what that turns up, the answer might be Sherwin-Williams Loxon XP, Emerald Rain Refresh or Latitude, or a Benjamin Moore masonry system. The product follows the wall, not the other way around.

Before you spend thousands repainting the house, it is worth knowing the wall underneath is ready for it.

Our Process · Stucco Repair & Repainting

The 6-Step Stucco Restoration System

Most painters show up and start spraying. We don’t. Every A New Leaf stucco project follows a disciplined 6-step restoration sequence. Skipping key prep steps is one reason many stucco paint jobs fail early — sometimes within 3 to 5 years — while a properly specified repair and coating system can last much longer.

01

Step One

Stress-Test Wash

Industrial pressure washing strips every layer of chalking, mildew, salt spray, and biological growth from the stucco surface. But it does something else too — the pressure reveals weak spots, hollow sections, and failing areas that aren’t visible to the eye until water is forced against them. This is why we call it a stress test, not just a wash.

💦 Paint applied over mildew or chalking doesn’t adhere to the stucco — it adheres to the contamination. When that layer fails, the paint comes with it.
02

Step Two

Full Property Protection

Before any repair or coating work begins, all landscaping, windows, doors, AC units, light fixtures, and hardscape are masked and covered. The Sanctuary Protocol — our White-Glove protection standard — means your property is treated with the same care as the stucco itself. Overspray damage is not a phone call we ever make.

🛡 Every window, door, AC unit, and landscape feature fully masked before prep begins. No exceptions.
03

Step Three

Crack Repair & Surface Prep

Every crack is assessed, classified, and repaired before any coating is applied. Hairline cracks get elastomeric caulk. Moderate cracks are opened, cleaned, packed, and bridged with mesh. Damaged or hollow sections are removed and rebuilt. Re-caulking at every window perimeter, door frame, and utility penetration is completed here — the #1 source of stucco moisture failure.

⚠ Painting over unrepaired cracks is one of the most common reasons Jacksonville stucco paint can fail in 3 years instead of 12.
04

Step Four

Elastomeric Seal Coat

This is the step most painters skip — and the one that defines whether your stucco paint job lasts. Our elastomeric base coat is applied at 10–20 mils of dry film thickness, four to five times thicker than standard paint. It bridges remaining hairline cracks, creates a continuous protective membrane, and is selected specifically for a high Perm-Rating — allowing the stucco to breathe while creating a highly water-resistant barrier.

🌧 Standard paint: 2–4 mils. Our elastomeric base: 10–20 mils. Film build is what bridges cracks and helps protect against moisture — not the brand name on the can.
05

Step Five

Premium Finish Coats

Two full coats of Sherwin-Williams® Emerald or Benjamin Moore® Aura acrylic exterior — the premium products engineered for Florida’s UV intensity, humidity, and thermal cycling. The finish coat delivers the color, UV resistance, and cleanability that the elastomeric base coat alone doesn’t provide. Two coats are applied regardless of color. One coat on stucco is never enough.

🌟 Sherwin-Williams® Emerald and Benjamin Moore® Aura exclusively — specified by product, sheen, and coat count on every estimate.
06

Step Six

Final Inspection & Clean Exit

Every elevation is inspected systematically under raking light for holidays, thin spots, and caulk line quality before we consider the job complete. All masking is removed, the property is cleaned, and a final walkthrough is conducted with you before we pack up. We don’t consider the job done until you do — and your property leaves cleaner than we found it.

Iron-Clad Guarantee on every project — backed by our written workmanship warranty and final walkthrough before the job is complete.

Common Questions

Stucco Repair & Painting FAQs

The questions Jacksonville homeowners ask most often about stucco repair, elastomeric coatings, and exterior painting.

Do I need stucco repair before painting?

Yes. A New Leaf Painting repairs cracks and moisture damage first. Painting over damaged stucco traps moisture against the wall and can cause the new paint to fail early.

Can stucco cracks be painted over?

No. Cracks and damaged stucco should be repaired, sealed, and properly prepared before painting. Painting over visible cracks may hide them temporarily, but moisture can still enter the wall and the new paint can fail early.

Do stucco repairs need to be texture matched?

Yes. A proper stucco repair should be blended with the surrounding texture before primer and finish paint are applied. Without texture matching, the patched area can show through the paint as a visible mismatch — even after the home is fully repainted.

What causes stucco cracks in Jacksonville homes?

Sandy soils, settlement, wind-driven rain, UV exposure, temperature swings, failed caulk joints, sprinkler overspray, and impact damage all contribute to stucco cracking and coating failure on Florida homes over time.

What’s the difference between elastomeric and regular paint?

Elastomeric is a coating applied roughly 5 to 8 times thicker than standard exterior paint. It forms a flexible membrane that bridges hairline cracks, flexes with temperature changes, and adds a layer of protection against wind-driven rain on stucco surfaces.

How much does stucco painting cost in Jacksonville?

Most Jacksonville stucco painting projects range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on home size, complexity, and the coating system selected. Stucco repairs typically add $500 to $5,000 based on the amount of damage. Every estimate includes line-item pricing so you know what each repair and coating costs before work begins.

Is Sherwin-Williams® Emerald Rain Refresh worth the upgrade?

For homes facing direct sun or coastal salt air, the self-cleaning technology in Emerald Rain Refresh can help reduce mildew buildup and surface dirt accumulation over time. We recommend it on a case-by-case basis based on the home’s exposure and the homeowner’s long-term maintenance preferences.

Do you do stucco repairs only, without painting?

No. A New Leaf Painting performs stucco repairs as part of full exterior painting projects, not standalone repair-only or touch-up work. This focused scope is what allows one crew, one schedule, and one company to be accountable for the repair, prep, primer, and paint together.
