Exterior painting Sarasota homeowners trust for salt-air defense and 10-year coverage.
Our crews neutralize salt, repair stucco, and stage scaffolding safely before applying elastomeric coatings that resist Florida sun and storms.


Salt-neutral washing with elastomeric patching keeps Sarasota exteriors pristine.
Skipping salt removal leads to blistering, and thin primers crack under Gulf Coast sun. Our crews neutralize salt, repair stucco with elastomeric primers, and stage lifts safely so every elevation cures to a weather-tight finish protected by a 10-year warranty.
They repaired hairline stucco cracks and matched the original texture on our Longboat Key home.

Exterior expertise
Coastal exterior painting engineered for Sarasota humidity and salt air.
Each project starts with a same-day estimate outlining washing, repairs, and coating systems rated for high UV and salt exposure.
What Sarasota homeowners face
Salt spray, UV exposure, and afternoon storms beat up Sarasota exteriors. Without proper washing, priming, and elastomeric coatings, paint systems crack and fade within a year or two.
Grove Street solution
Grove Street Painting stages coastal exteriors with salt-neutral washes, moisture mapping, and elastomeric patching before installing premium coatings that flex with Florida humidity.
Crews mask landscaping, stage scaffolding, and log moisture readings so every elevation gets the prep it needs before primer.
Nightly recaps document elevations completed, touch-ups pending, and next-day milestones to keep homeowners and HOAs aligned.

Detailed craftsmanship
Exterior coatings calibrated for Gulf Coast weather
Exterior durability begins with prep. Grove Street neutralizes salt, removes failing coatings, and moisture-tests stucco before we touch primer or topcoat. Damaged areas are routed, patched with masonry-grade fillers, and sealed using elastomeric products that flex through seasonal humidity swings.
Trim, soffits, and railings are sanded or stripped to a stable surface and primed with bonding systems that lock adhesion even in salty air. We document every substrate and spec so owners, HOAs, and builders see exactly how each surface is protected.
Application uses airless sprayers paired with back rolling for stucco, creating even film build and superior coverage. Lap siding and detailed trim receive brush-and-roll techniques to avoid overspray while still delivering a smooth finish.
Crews photograph progress daily and restore walkways, lanais, docks, and pool cages each evening so families continue using outdoor spaces during the project.
Upon completion, Desmond Landry leads a daylight punch walk, marks minor touch-ups, and archives maintenance notes in the homeowner portal alongside warranty information.

FAQs
Exterior painting FAQs for Sarasota homeowners
Clear answers for voice search and design-minded questions.
How long does an exterior repaint take? ^
Most Sarasota exteriors wrap in 4-6 production days depending on weather, lift access, and repairs. We provide a written schedule before mobilizing.
Do you handle stucco cracks before painting? ^
Yes. We route cracks, patch with masonry fillers, and apply elastomeric primers so new coatings flex without re-cracking.
Which exterior paints do you use? ^
We specify Sherwin-Williams Duration or Emerald, plus Benjamin Moore Aura or elastomeric systems for high-exposure surfaces.
Can you work around pool enclosures and docks? ^
We tent pool cages, protect decking, and stage docks or lifts with containment so coatings stay off glass and water.
What about HOA approvals and color boards? ^
Desmond assists with ARC packets, provides digital and physical color boards, and submits product data sheets as needed.
