What drives the cost
Four things move a paint price most: prep (patching, sanding, caulking, pressure-washing and priming is often more than half the labor), height and access (a one-story interior wall vs. a two-story exterior gable), paint grade (a Florida sun- and mildew-rated exterior paint costs more but lasts far longer), and how much is changing — a big color change or going dark-to-light adds coats. Bundling rooms, or doing the whole exterior at once, lowers the per-area cost.
Interior vs. exterior — and what ‘cheap’ paint really costs
Interior work is mostly clean lines and coverage; exterior work in South Florida is about protection. Sun, salt and afternoon storms punish exterior paint, so the prep (pressure-wash, scrape, caulk, prime bare stucco) and a quality sun-rated paint are what make it last 7–10 years instead of 3. A lowball exterior quote almost always means skipped prep or builder-grade paint — you pay again sooner. Ask what’s included: number of coats, the prep steps, and the exact product.
When a job legally needs a licensed contractor
Good news: painting and pressure washing are license-exempt in Florida under HB 735, so 1st Integrity can handle your interior and exterior painting across Broward. The jobs that do need a licensed contractor are electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing and structural — so if your project also involves moving a light fixture or repairing rotted roof sheathing, that part goes to the right licensed trade.
