Exterior & Painting
What Marble Falls homeowners should know about exterior work
Local Paint & Exterior Note
Marble Falls’ limestone and granite-faced homes require breathable, vapor-permeable masonry coatings, film-forming exterior paints over natural stone trap moisture and cause face spalling.
Sequence Matters
Exterior painting and repair work should follow, not precede, roofing documentation. Condition notes from a roof visit often surface fascia rot, gutter separation, and trim damage that affect painting scope and cost before a single brush stroke is applied.

David did an excellent job replacing our roof and gutters. I was very impressed with how clean they left the yard. They used good quality underlayment, unlike the previous roofer. Great communication. Our insurance adjuster knew who he was and it helped for a very smooth claim process. Highly recommend!
