Your Exterior Paint Job, Step by Step
Our painting process is simple and transparent. You know the price, the plan, and the timeline before a single drop of paint is bought.
Design Consultation
We inspect every surface, test old paint for adhesion, and bring color samples to your home so you see the color in your light, not the store. Every paint job starts with the surface itself.
Written Estimate
One clear price in writing: prep, primer, premium paint, trim, and cleanup. It holds unless you change the plan.
Build & Install
Our own crew pressure-washes, scrapes, primes, and sprays every surface to the mill, with back-rolling on stucco so the texture holds the coating. Most homes are done in two to four days.
Final Walkthrough
Nothing gets checked off until you say so. We walk every wall with you in daylight, touch up anything that catches your eye, and leave the warranty in your name.
What a Trini Exterior Paint Job Includes
Every exterior project is prepped and coated for Florida sun and humidity by professional painters, not day labor. Here is what the typical Gainesville project includes.
Premium Exterior Painting
Airless-sprayed premium coatings, back-rolled on stucco, on the schedule the Florida sun demands. Colors matched to your home, not a fan deck in a warehouse.
Siding Replacement
Cement board siding in coastal colors that never needs painting, installed with the proper gaps and trim so it moves the way Florida humidity makes everything move.
Color Consultation
Samples on your actual walls, in your actual light, before a single gallon is bought. The color that looked perfect in the store rarely survives your sun angle.
Stucco Repair
Cracks cut open, patched, and blended before the coating goes on, because paint over a bad patch is just a more colorful crack. The repair gets done first, every time.
Prep That Decides the Job
Pressure washing, mildew treatment, scraping, sanding, and priming. Eighty percent of a paint job that lasts is what happens before the first coat.
Trim and Shutters
Crisp trim lines and shutters in accent colors that give the house the look that stops foot traffic, done by the same crew doing the walls so the lines match.
How Long an Exterior Paint Job Takes
Most homes are painted in two to four days on site. Here is the realistic schedule.
Before We Start: Color Lock
The design consultation, layout decisions, cabinet selection, and a written price. Cabinets are the long-lead item, so we order them the moment you approve. Most cabinet lines run four to eight weeks to deliver.
Day 1: Prep and Prime
Cabinets, counters, and flooring come out. Plumbing and electrical get roughed in for the new layout, inspections get scheduled, and the room is prepped for the rebuild.
Days 2 to 3: Spray and Trim
Cabinets set, counters templated and fabricated, flooring laid, backsplash tiled. Our own crew handles the build with weekly photo updates, so you always know where things stand.
Final Day: Walkthrough and Touch-Up
We load-test the railing together, walk every board barefoot, and register the warranty in your name. Nothing gets checked off until you say so.

Real reviews from real Alachua County clients.
“Trini Homes rebuilt our kitchen and we could not be happier. The crew showed up on time every day, the site was spotless at the end of each day, and the final invoice matched the estimate to the dollar.”
“After the last storm we needed a full roof replacement. As a GAF certified installer they handled everything, finished two days early, and our insurance process was smooth because of their documentation.”
“They built our home from the ground up in Tioga and treated it like their own. Communication was constant, quality was excellent, and any small issue was fixed before we even noticed it.”
Exterior Painting Questions, Answered
The things Gainesville homeowners ask us most before painting a house.
Most exterior paint jobs in Gainesville run between 3,000 and 8,000 dollars depending on home size, siding type, and how much prep the old coating demands. Stucco repair and siding replacement add to the line. After the free paint check you get one written price for the whole job. It holds unless you change the plan.
Most homes are done in two to four days on site: prep and primer day one, spray and trim over the next two, then the walkthrough. Larger two-story homes run a day or two longer. You get the full schedule before we start.
Premium 100 percent acrylic coatings rated for UV exposure, applied over the right primer for the surface. The Florida failure mode is chalking and peeling from sun and humidity, so the coating system, not just the color, is what gets specified. We use coatings rated for the exposure your walls actually take.
Every 7 to 10 years in North Florida, sooner on the sun-blasted south and west faces. Chalking, fading, and bare spots at the trim are the signs it is time. Waiting past them means the prep bill grows, because failed paint has to come off before new paint goes on.
Always. Hairline cracks become highways for moisture once they are painted over. We cut, patch, and blend every crack in the prep phase, before primer, so the coating goes onto a sound surface. Skipping it is how a fresh paint job starts failing in year two.
If you are repainting every 6 or 7 years, cement board siding pays for itself over time, because it comes factory-finished and never needs a coat. If your siding is sound and you like the color flexibility of paint, repainting is the honest answer. We quote both paths when the situation is close.
Yes, with the schedule built around it. Paint needs the right surface temperature and a dry window for each coat, and Gainesville summers give us both in the mornings. We sequence the faces of the house to follow the shade and stop before the afternoon thunder risk, so nothing gets trapped under a wet coat.
Yes, and that is where the curb appeal actually lives. Crisp white trim and a deep accent color on the shutters and front door give the house the look that stops foot traffic, done by the same crew doing the walls so the lines match everywhere.
The prep. Pressure washing, mildew treatment, scraping, sanding, patching, and priming carry most of the labor, and they are exactly the part that decides whether year 8 looks like day one. The paint itself is the smaller line. We break every line out so you see where the money goes.
