Too many Houston homeowners have paid thousands to stucco contractors only to watch leaks return within months, cracks reopen, and windows remain improperly sealed. Owner Anthony Estrada founded AE Stucco Painting Remodeling to do the job right the first time, building a team of full-time W2 employees rather than relying on subcontractors who cycle through jobsites.
The company handles 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 to ensure complete coverage into every texture of the stucco surface. Supervisor Harvey leads job sites alongside crew members Javier and Jesus while Anthony personally oversees estimates and communicates daily progress updates.
The fully licensed, bonded and insured team serves Houston and surrounding communities throughout the greater Houston metro area. They are BBB-accredited and back all work with a warranty.

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