Our Work
Recent exterior painting projects.
Florida sun, salt air, and tropical storms eat exterior paint. We use premium Sherwin-Williams systems built for SWFL conditions, with pressure-wash prep and HOA color-match support included on every job.
A full exterior paint job in SWFL covers more than just the body color. We address: stucco body (two coats of premium exterior), trim and fascia (semi-gloss for cleanability), soffit (mildew-resistant), garage door (often a separate color or finish), and front door (statement coat). HOA color match is included where required.
North Fort Myers' age range (1970s to 2020s construction) means painting scope varies enormously. Older homes need extensive prep + primer; newer Verandah / Magnolia Landing builds need premium acrylic systems for HOA approval.
Our North Fort Myers crew works across the full city — from Manatee Park, Shell Factory, Bayshore Park, US-41 corridor — and we're familiar with how exterior painting scope changes between Pine Lakes and Suncoast Estates.
North Fort Myers disaster history: Hurricane Ian (2022), Hurricane Irma (2017), tropical storm seasons. Stucco patching from prior storm damage often needs primer + texture matching before repaint.
The North Fort Myers paint job is half coating system and half community context. A Verandah single-family home repaints under an HOA palette with mandated body, trim, and accent colors. A Magnolia Landing exterior gets the same restriction. A 1978 Pine Lakes single-wide repaints under no palette but needs a system that bonds to aluminum or vinyl siding without solvent damage. A Suncoast Estates CBS rambler needs elastomeric over hairline cracks. Each scope is a different chemistry decision, and the salt aerosol blowing in off the Caloosahatchee shortens every warranty if the prep is wrong.
Verandah and Magnolia Landing both run architectural review boards that approve body, trim, accent, and front-door color before any exterior repaint begins. The approved palettes lean toward Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore mid-tone earth and coastal tones — colors selected for UV stability and a 7-10 year hold under Lee County's solar load. We submit color samples to the ARB with the system specification attached (Loxon XP body, oil-based primer on trim, marine-grade enamel on front doors) so the approval covers the chemistry, not just the color chip. That keeps a re-inspection from rejecting the finish after the work is done.
Aluminum siding on a 1970s-1980s Tamiami Village or Pine Lakes unit chalks heavily after 15 years of UV — that powdery surface bleed is failed pigment binder, and any topcoat applied directly to it will peel inside one summer. We pressure-wash with a mild TSP solution to lift the chalk, then prime with a bonding primer formulated for chalky metal before topcoat. Vinyl siding on newer units (1990s-2000s Bayshore parks) is the opposite problem: the surface holds paint fine, but darker colors absorb heat and warp the panels. We hold mobile-home repaints to colors with a Light Reflectance Value above 55 to prevent thermal warp, and we document that LRV constraint in writing because the manufactured-home warranty depends on it.
The salt-aerosol load on Bayshore Road and any waterfront elevation cuts standard acrylic latex warranty in half. Deep reds and dark blues hold 5-7 years here. Mid-tone earth colors hold 8-10. Premium acrylic in light neutrals can hit 12+ with clean prep. On any canal-side or river-facing elevation we spec Sherwin-Williams Loxon XP or Benjamin Moore Aura Exterior — both rated for our humidity load, both with formulated mildewcide. We pressure-wash with fresh water (not canal water) specifically to lift salt deposits before priming. Skip that step and chemical bond fails at the substrate within two summers, regardless of which premium coating sits on top.
An exterior repaint in North Fort Myers is a maintenance investment, not a cosmetic one. Right system on the right substrate, prep that respects salt and chalk, HOA-approved color where applicable, and a written scope tied to the chemistry. That's why our Verandah, Magnolia Landing, and Suncoast Estates repaints are still holding clean five and seven years out.
Full-pressure wash removes salt deposits, mildew, and chalking paint. Stucco cracks repaired and primed before paint.
Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore premium exterior. Two coats for stucco body. Cut-in trim, fascia, soffit with mildew-resistant finish.
Garage door, front door, shutters as separate accent passes. Daily site clean-up. No paint on landscaping or windows.

Our North Fort Myers exterior painting crew dispatches across the full city — from Pine Lakes, Suncoast Estates, Foxmoor, Hancock Creek, Tamiami Village, Old Bridge Village, Pine Island Road corridor, covering ZIP codes 33903, 33917. Substrate prep differs across North Fort Myers's build mix — CBS stucco, wood-frame, EIFS all need different priming.
North Fort Myers insurance carriers we work with: Manufactured-home carriers, Citizens, NFIP. We bill direct on most claims and document to adjuster standards from the first call.
Same crew, same standards — we cover the surrounding cities too:
Verandah and similar planned communities in North Fort Myers use a recorded color palette administered by the HOA's architectural review committee, and unapproved colors trigger fines and forced repaint. We pull the current palette from the ARC, submit your selected scheme on the community's standard form with photos of the test patches, and wait for written approval before mobilizing. We also confirm trim, garage door, and front-door rules separately because they often have narrower options than body color. The approval letter goes in your project file in case of later disputes with the HOA.
Loxon XP is a high-build acrylic elastomeric coating engineered for masonry and stucco at high pH, which matters in North Fort Myers because CBS homes here often need painting before stucco fully cures and humidity slows curing further. Loxon XP tolerates application at pH up to 13 and bridges hairline cracks common in our aging stucco stock. On waterfront homes near the Caloosahatchee we like it for chloride resistance from salt-laden air. We still pressure-wash, treat mildew, and patch substrate before application; the coating performs only as well as the prep underneath.
Mobile-home aluminum siding and painted hardboard in North Fort Myers parks generally needs recoating every 7 to 10 years depending on exposure, with south- and west-facing walls failing first under UV. We see chalking, fading, and seam-caulk failure long before substrate damage. Recoating with a 100 percent acrylic exterior paint over a bonding primer and fresh sealant at every penetration adds another decade of service. For aluminum specifically, surface prep is critical: we degloss with a phosphate cleaner and apply a corrosion-inhibiting primer to bare spots before topcoat to prevent peeling at fasteners.
Sheet peeling on a Magnolia Landing home usually means moisture is pushing through stucco from the back side, often from irrigation overspray, missing kick-out flashing, or a hidden plumbing leak. Painting over it without addressing the source guarantees the new coat fails. We scrape and wire-brush to sound substrate, identify the moisture source (irrigation timer, flashing, downspout), and correct it. After substrate dries to below 15 percent moisture content, we apply a masonry conditioner, then Loxon XP or equivalent elastomeric. Skipping diagnosis is the most common reason repaints fail prematurely in this community.
We do paint through the North Fort Myers summer but we plan around afternoon convective storms, which run almost daily from June through September. Application is morning through early afternoon, and we monitor dewpoint to keep substrate temperature at least five degrees above dewpoint before and during application. We do not paint within four hours of forecast rain or when surface moisture exceeds the coating manufacturer's limit. Tarps and breathable covers protect freshly coated sections from sudden showers. The trade-off is a longer calendar window; the alternative is sacrificing adhesion and warranty coverage.
