    Del Mar Exterior Painters

    Del Mar exterior painters and Del Mar interior painters are unfortunately not all made the same. Not every painting company embodies the attributes most customers look for: dependability, affordable prices, great communication, attention to detail, skilled workmanship, and availability. Luckily for you, J Brown Painting personnel live by these principles. But don’t just take our word for it, ask our customers and see our before, during, and after job site photos.

    Del Mar House Painters

    As we established earlier, some Del Mar exterior painters cut corners. And while that might save you money on the cost of your paint job, it could come back to bite you if they get hurt on your property and aren’t properly insured.

    Whoever you hire, make sure they are licensed and have adequate workers' compensation, liability, and bond coverage.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does being this close to the ocean shorten how long the paint lasts?
    Yes, and it is worth planning around. Two things wear an exterior finish down faster than anything else: direct sun and salt air. Del Mar gets both.

    The clearest example we can give is gutters, where a properly prepared finish runs 15 to 20 years. Homes further inland and out of constant sun land nearer the 20-year end. Close to the coast, with salt in the air, expect the 15-year end of that range.

    The same logic applies to the body of the house. It does not mean coastal homes need painting constantly — it means the preparation and the grade of paint matter more here than they would ten miles inland, because the finish has less margin to give.
    How often should a house in Del Mar be repainted?
    That depends entirely on who painted it last and whether the job was done properly.

    If the prep was right — a thorough power wash, chipping and peeling paint scraped and sanded, bare wood and sanded areas primed, cracks caulked, rotten wood replaced, failing stucco patched — and the finish was two coats of a better-to-best 100% acrylic, then repainting about every 10 years is reasonable.

    Most houses in San Diego end up on a shorter cycle, closer to six or seven years. That is not the weather doing it. It is an average contractor working with low- to mid-grade paint.

    There is also a case for not waiting until the paint visibly fails. Repainting nearer the 10-year mark means the next crew is not scraping and sanding a failed finish first, and that labor is what makes a late repaint cost more than an early one.

      Justin and Jeff absolutely TRANSFORMED my cabinets from an outdated and boring bare wood to a modern, beachy feel. I love it! My whole kitchen feels new. Thanks guys!

    • Long Painting – Pacific Beach, CA

      I've referred Justin Brown to prospective clients of mine when we are too busy and they needed work done with short notice. He was on time, professional, and dependable.

    • Rebecca B – Pacific Beach, CA

      You can stop searching, Justin at J Brown Painting is your go-to guy for anything house painting, window washing, power washing, stucco patching, and even gutter cleaning. We've used him for literally all of these services! At first, we were concerned because he looks so young. But, within 5 minutes of meeting him, we could tell he knew his stuff. We were impressed that he would work 10 hour days and how tansparent he was with his prices, and didn't try to sell us on stuff we didn't actually need. 10/10, would recommend :)
