"Craftsman Home Builders: Your Trusted Partner in Home Exterior Excellence For over 38 years, Craftsman Home Builders has proudly served the San Diego community, becoming a cornerstone in the local home improvement industry. Our mission is simple: to provide world-class service to every customer, ensuring that your home exterior projects are completed with the highest level of craftsmanship and care. As a fully licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor, we offer peace of mind knowing that your project is in the hands of professionals who are not only skilled but also reputable. We are proud to hold an A+ accreditation with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), a testament to our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction."

"I recently completed a full house renovation on a family property that I now reside in. This project was very involved. I hired a member of the Craftsman Home Builder team to manage the project. They were incredibly professional, exceptional at communication, transparent from the beginning, knowledgeable due to years of experience in general contracting and I always felt like my job was prioritized and never rushed. The house received new roofing and some of the doors and windows required new framing before installation. Every aspect of the renovation performed by Craftsman has endured and I’ve experienced zero issues. The quality of the work is evident in the functionality, details and the time invested in ensuring my goals were met, even down to meeting the exact color. Some other services provided by other contractors have not held up as well and having been through the daunting process of home renovation, I will chose quality first as I’m a firm believer that it saves money and headaches over the long run."

"Wayne came out to give me an estimate. He was very personable and explained everything that would be done. Although I had a lower estimate, I went with Wayne as I like to support local businesses. I never spoke to or saw Wayne again.The morning the project started, three strange men came to my door and said they were the painting company. On the last day, the ‘lead ‘ painter walked around the house with me to inspect it. I pointed out that the stucco work was very bad. He simply shrugged and smiled. They got white paint on my pavers, which I pointed out. I gave him the final payment. I sent Wayne a text explaining my concerns along with pictures. This text actually went to someone else who said he would send it on to Wayne. I would have expected Wayne to show up on the first day to introduce me to his team, to check once or twice on the project to make certain I was happy with it. And then to meet with me on the last day, inspect the project and I would give him his final payment."

Exterior home or structure paint or stains FAQs

Exterior paint costs around $20 to $80 per gallon, while interior paint costs around $20 to $30 per gallon. Outside paints tend to be pricier because they need to withstand the elements, such as abrasion, moisture, and color corrosion from the sun. In addition, painting the outside of a home is more costly at around $3,100, while painting a home interior costs around $2,000.

Use our paint calculator to determine the number of gallons of paint needed for your project. The average gallon of exterior paint covers 350 square feet in a single coat. So, a 1,500-square-foot home with a paintable area of 1,100 square feet requires seven gallons of paint for a two-coat application.

When determining how much extra paint to purchase and whether to apply primer, clear planning is essential. Rounding up your paint requirements ensures complete coverage and prevents gaps during the application process. Extra paint acts as a safeguard against miscalculations, while proper primer application—decided by the paint type and exterior condition—secures adhesion and long-lasting protection.

When determining how often to repaint your home’s exterior, careful evaluation of both the current paint condition and building materials is crucial. Exterior paint is engineered to last five to 10 years. Aluminum surfaces require repainting every five years, wood requires a new coat every three to seven years, and painted brick needs refreshing every 15 to 20 years. Visible chipping or cracking signals the need for prompt repainting to sustain protection and curb appeal.

When deciding whether to roll or spray exterior house paint, the method chosen directly influences the overall finish and work efficiency. Rolling delivers precision and control for tight, detailed areas, whereas spraying achieves a smooth, even coat on large surfaces with high efficiency. The equipment used and labor intensity are key considerations; homeowners must choose the technique that best suits their project scale and quality requirements.

When evaluating the duration of an exterior painting project, a professional team completes an average-sized house within three to four days. Larger or more complex projects—such as three-story homes or residences with extensive architectural details—require five to six days due to increased surface area and additional setup. A contractor provides an exact timeline after reviewing all project specifics.
