Professional Stucco Painting in Van Nuys

Stucco painting is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect and refresh your Van Nuys home. A quality paint job seals hairline cracks, blocks UV damage, and prevents moisture intrusion. In Van Nuys, where summer temperatures exceed 100°F and UV exposure is intense, the right paint is essential for protecting your stucco.

We use elastomeric and high-build acrylic paints rated for extreme heat and UV exposure. Every paint job includes pressure washing, crack repair, and two coats of paint.

Stucco Paint Types for Van Nuys

Elastomeric Paint

Elastomeric paint is the best choice for Van Nuys stucco. It is 10 times thicker than regular paint, fills hairline cracks up to 1/16 inch, and stays flexible through temperature extremes. Elastomeric paint lasts 7-10 years in Van Nuys and provides the best protection against the Valley's heat and UV exposure.

High-Build Acrylic Paint

High-build acrylic paint is thicker than standard acrylic and provides good coverage on textured stucco. It costs less than elastomeric and lasts 7-10 years. A good choice for Van Nuys homes with minor cracking that has already been repaired.

Standard Acrylic Paint

Standard acrylic masonry paint is the budget option. It costs less upfront but lasts only 5-7 years in Van Nuys. It does not fill cracks or provide the same level of UV protection as elastomeric or high-build options.

What is the best paint for stucco in Van Nuys?

Do I need to prime stucco before painting?
Yes, priming is recommended for bare stucco, patched areas, and stucco that has never been painted. Use a masonry primer. If the existing paint is in good condition and you are using the same paint type, primer is optional.
Can you paint stucco with a roller?
Yes, you can paint stucco with a roller, but it is slow and wastes paint on textured surfaces. Professional stucco painters use airless sprayers for the main application and rollers for back-rolling to push paint into the texture.
