About 1,270 people live in Crystal Springs, spread over a few square miles of rural land along the upper Hillsborough River. There is no town center to speak of. Homes are block houses, frame houses and manufactured homes on lots big enough for a shop, a boat shed and a garden.
Almost every place here pumps from its own well, and that water carries iron. Sprinkler heads aimed at the house paint orange arcs across the stucco, and the bottom two feet of the wall turns rust colored. Painting over it does not work; the stain bleeds back. We clean it off with a rust remover made for masonry, rinse, then prime with a stain blocker before the topcoat.
The spring, the river and the preserve
The spring pushes out about 30 million gallons a day and supplies the water bottled under the Zephyrhills name. The land around it is a 525 acre private preserve with trails, boardwalks and a nature center on Crystal Springs Road.
With the river and wetlands this close, mornings are often foggy and walls stay damp into the afternoon. Oak and cypress shade adds mildew on the north and east sides. Owners out here also ask about shop and garage floors, since workshop concrete takes oil, fertilizer and tractor tires.

Questions from Crystal Springs homeowners
Will the orange well water stains come back after you paint?
They will if the sprinklers keep hitting the wall. We remove the stain, prime with a stain blocker and paint, and we point out which heads to turn or swap. Some owners add an iron filter on the irrigation line, which stops it at the source.
Can a workshop floor with old oil stains still take epoxy?
Usually. We degrease, grind the surface and test a spot to see if oil is still wicking up. Deeply soaked areas get cut out and patched before the coating goes down.
Should I scrub the iron stains myself before your crew arrives?
Please do not. Bleach and many household cleaners can set iron stains deeper or etch the paint. We use a masonry-safe rust remover and rinse it fully, and that is part of the job price.
What does stain removal plus a stucco repaint cost in Crystal Springs?
For a 1,500 to 2,000 sq ft single-story home, figure about $4,390 to $7,260 including rust stain removal and a stain-blocking primer. Large shops or barns are priced separately. Your exact price follows a free on-site look at the walls and sprinkler layout.
