Too many Houston homeowners have paid thousands to stucco contractors only to find leaks returning within months, cracks improperly sealed, and windows never properly caulked. Owner Anthony Estrada founded AE Stucco Painting Remodeling in 2003 with a focus on doing the job right the first time, building a team of full-time W2 employees rather than relying on subcontractors.
The company specializes in stucco repair, exterior and interior painting, elastomeric coatings, Hardie plank siding, drywall repair, and waterproofing. All painting is done by brush and roller rather than spraying, ensuring complete coverage into every texture of the stucco surface. Supervisor Harvey leads job sites alongside crew members Javier and Jesus, with Anthony personally overseeing estimates and project management.
The BBB-accredited team is fully licensed, bonded, and insured and offers a warranty on all work. AE Stucco Painting Remodeling serves Houston and surrounding areas within the greater Houston metro region.

Julie Williams notes they use "two coats of elastomeric paint, brushed and rolled—not sprayed, so as to penetrate every bit of the stucco" and that competing bidders did not offer elastomeric options.
