The San Diego Exterior Reality
Your San Diego home takes a beating every day. Most paint jobs don't hold up. Here's why.
Salt air. UV. Marine layer. Stucco that holds moisture. Wood fascia that absorbs salt and rots from the inside. San Diego is not the easiest climate to paint in. It is one of the hardest.
Most exterior paint jobs in this city fail inside 3 years. Not because of the paint. Because of the prep.
You can’t see prep in a quote. You see it when the paint starts flaking off the south-facing wall in year two. By then, the crew is long gone. The number is disconnected. And you’re paying again.
Want the prep checklist we follow on every San Diego exterior?
Free with your estimate. No commitment.
What Makes CG Pro Different
We're the only San Diego painting crew with a General B Contractor License.
Three things that matter to you. All three are in the contract before day one.
Real Crew. No Subcontractors.
The painters who show up are W-2 employees. Same team every day. Background-checked. You meet them at the estimate and you see them on day one.
Structural Repair Included.
Most painters slap caulk over rot and hope. We’re licensed to fix stucco cracks, replace dry-rotted wood, and rebuild fascia before any primer hits. Your paint job lasts because the substrate is sound.
5-Year Written Guarantee.
If the work fails inside 5 years from defects in workmanship or materials, we come back. Free. No arguments. That’s in the contract before you pay a dollar.
Our Process
What happens between your call and a finished exterior
Seven steps. No surprises. You always know what comes next.
Free in-person estimate
Cristian or a lead estimator walks the property, identifies prep needs, flags any wood rot or stucco issues.
Digital color rendering
See your exact color choice on your actual home before we order paint.
Written scope and transparent quote
Itemized. No "TBDs." If HOA approval is needed, we package the submission with the colors and finish names.
Pre-paint repair
Stucco cracks sealed, wood rot replaced, fascia rebuilt, caulking redone.
Surface prep
Pressure wash, scrape, sand, prime. Salt residue washed off coastal homes.
Application
Two coats minimum on stucco, three on wood trim. Premium-grade products only. No cheap substitutes.
Walkthrough and 5-year warranty handoff
Final inspection with you. Touch-up kit and warranty paperwork left on site.
For HOA Homeowners
Got an HOA notice? We've worked inside HOA rules plenty.
San Diego HOAs don’t move fast. Most require the paint manufacturer, exact color name, sheen level, and a 30 to 45-day approval window before a single brush hits the wall. Miss one detail and they kick the request back.
We help with the color paperwork and timing so you’re not chasing it alone. We’ve worked with HOAs in Carmel Valley, Scripps Ranch, La Jolla, Carlsbad, Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, Fairbanks Ranch, and most major San Diego associations. We start once you’re cleared. No surprises.
Property Protection Protocol
Cars covered. Plants protected. Neighbor's fence respected.
Vehicles in the driveway covered with breathable tarps
Daily cleanup, not just at the end of the project
Pressure-wash runoff managed to avoid neighbor disputes
Landscaping wrapped and watered
Same crew every day, in uniform, drug-tested
Garage doors and windows closed every evening before crew leaves

Transparent Pricing
What a San Diego exterior actually costs
Most San Diego painters hide pricing until the home visit. We publish the honest range so you know what you’re walking into.
The cheapest quote is rarely the cheapest job.
A repaint in two years costs more than doing it right the first time. Exterior paint isn’t cosmetic. It’s the layer protecting your home from sun and moisture. Skimp on it and you pay in repairs.

Before You Sign Anything
Comparing painters? Use these five things to compare apples to apples.
Getting multiple quotes is smart. But quotes hide huge differences in what’s actually included. Compare every painter on the same five points so you see who’s worth the price.
01
Prep Process
Does the quote include full surface prep, or just a coat over the old paint? Prep is where most “savings” come from.
02
Who Does the Work
Their own crew or subcontractors? Subcontracted crews don’t carry the same accountability.
03
Materials
What grade of paint? Cheap paint cuts a year off the finish life. Premium-grade is the only kind that lasts in San Diego.
04
Warranty
Is there a written warranty? For how long? What does it actually cover? Verbal promises don’t count.
05
Proof
Reviews, license number, insurance, references. Verify before you sign, not after.
If anyone beats us on all five, take it.
If not, you’ll want to know now. That’s why we publish the comparison openly. We’re confident in what we deliver.

Questions Before Booking
Questions San Diego homeowners ask before booking
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Fully licensed and insured. CSLB License #1071167, $2M coverage, and Google Guaranteed. Everyone on your property is covered, so you carry zero risk if anything goes wrong.
Is the quote going to change after you start?
No. We give you a fixed-price written quote. If something comes up that genuinely changes scope, we stop and present a written change order before any extra work begins.
What paint do you use?
Premium-grade paint and materials, included in your quote. No cheap substitutes. No mid-job upcharges. The price we quote is the price you pay.
How does weather affect the job?
We never paint in conditions that compromise the finish. We protect open work and adjust the schedule around the forecast. That patience is exactly why the finish lasts instead of failing in a year.
How long will the job take?
A typical San Diego single-family exterior runs 4 to 7 working days. Larger homes or properties needing significant repair run longer. We give you the timeline in writing before we start.
Will my cars, plants, and neighbor's fence be protected?
Vehicles in the driveway are tarped. Landscaping is wrapped. We coordinate with neighbors if our access requires it. Pressure-wash runoff is managed so it doesn’t blow paint dust onto neighboring property.
Are your painters subcontractors?
No. Every painter on a CG Pro job is a direct W-2 employee. Same crew. Background-checked. Same people you meet at the estimate.
What does the 5-year guarantee actually cover?
Workmanship and material defects. If a coat fails, peels, blisters, or fades due to product or application defect within 5 years, we return and repair. In writing, on day one.
Do you handle wood rot and stucco repair?
Yes. Our General B Contractor license lets us repair structural issues other painters can’t legally touch. That’s why our jobs last.
