Spring Hill was laid out by the Deltona Corporation starting in the late 1960s, and thousands of homes went up over the next few decades on a similar block and stucco recipe. Many are now on their third or fourth paint job, and the walls show it: map cracks in the stucco, chalky paint that rubs off on your hand, and patches that never matched.
We start with a wash and a hand test. Chalky walls get a bonding primer so new paint grips. Cracks wider than a credit card get routed and filled, hairlines get bridged with a high build primer. Then two coats of a quality acrylic or an elastomeric if the walls are badly cracked.
Built on a plan, one street at a time
The original sections spread out from Spring Hill Drive and Mariner Boulevard, with US 19 on the west and the Suncoast Parkway on the east edge. Lots are fairly wide, and many homes have carports or screened porches that were added or closed in over the years, so we often find stucco on the old part and siding or wood on the add on.
Spring Hill's sandy soil and long dry springs mean the ground moves a bit through the year. That is a big reason the block walls show step cracks and why we never just paint over them.

Questions from Spring Hill homeowners
My Spring Hill house leaves white powder on my hand. Can I paint over it?
Not directly. That is chalking, the old paint breaking down. We wash it hard and use a bonding primer so the new coat sticks. Painting straight over chalk is why some repaints peel within a couple of years.
Are stucco cracks on these older homes a structural problem?
Most are not. Hairlines and map cracks are normal on aging block homes. Cracks that are wide, growing, or run diagonally from window corners should be looked at more closely, and we will tell you if we see one of those.
Is elastomeric coating worth it on a Spring Hill home?
On heavily cracked walls, often yes. It costs more than standard paint and goes on thicker, but it stretches over hairline cracks. On walls in good shape, a quality acrylic is enough.
What does a stucco repaint cost for a typical Spring Hill ranch?
Single story block homes here usually run $3,870 to $6,240 with normal crack repair. Elastomeric or heavy patching costs more. Final price follows a free on-site look.
