In Edmonton, the cost to paint a stucco house typically ranges from $1.00 to $5.50 per square foot, leading to an overall average expense between $2,400 and $8,100 for a standard-sized home. Factors influencing the total cost include the size of the house, the condition of the stucco, accessibility, and the type of paint used. For example, using elastomeric paint can increase costs due to its higher price and application requirements. If extensive preparation or repairs are needed before painting, this could further elevate the overall expenses.
Getting stucco ready for paint is key. We start by power washing it. This cleans off dirt and loose bits. Clean stucco helps paint stick better and last longer.
We do these things to prep the surface:
• Brush off loose stuff
• Fix cracks and holes
• Use primer if needed
• Sand rough spots
• Wash with soap
After cleaning and prepping the surface, we move on to scraping and priming. We look closely at the stucco to find any loose or flaking spots. We scrape these away to make sure the paint will stick well and keep an eye on the weather.
Next, we put on a good primer made for stucco. This step is important because it:
1. Helps paint stick better
2. Seals porous areas
3. Stops white, chalky buildup
4. Makes a smooth base for the top coat.
After the primer dries, we check it one last time before we start painting. This careful prep work is key to making your Edmonton stucco house look great for years to come.
Fixing stucco cracks is key when getting stucco ready for paint. We use special methods to make sure the caulk sticks and lasts. To stop new cracks, we look closely at the surface and fix even tiny ones. We pick good, stretchy caulks made just for stucco. These work better and last longer.
When we put on caulk, we follow some rules to get it right. We clean the cracks well. Our specialists squeeze the caulk at an angle. Then we smooth it with a wet finger or tool. We don’t overfill, or it looks bumpy.
After caulking, we wait for it to dry before we paint. This helps make sure the paint job turns out great.
Picking the right color is key when we paint stucco. We use smart ways to find the best color for your house. We think about:
1. How rough the stucco is
2. What style your house is
3. The plants and trees around your house
4. What colors are popular now

We use special paints for stucco houses. The best kind is elastomeric acrylic paint. It’s tough and can stretch when the weather changes. This stops cracks and peeling.
Our techs might also use masonry paint or good acrylic latex paint. It depends on the stucco and where you live.
We put on the paint in special ways, like back-rolling or spraying. This makes sure the paint covers well and sticks to the bumpy surface.
Choosing the right paint and putting it on right keeps your stucco house looking good for a long time.
