Omar's Painting (352-434-7072) does a great job. Paint colors are approved by the Architectural Review Committee for your district. Color should complement the neighborhood.

The Architectural Review Committee will have the formula for matching the paint, then you or your painter can go to the paint store where it will be mixed. I found the Sherwin Williams paint to last, and look good for years. We painted in 2014 still looks great.

use sherwin williams super paint or diamond ,if your painting soffit and facia use the sherwin williams paint that's made for soffit and facia its works better then using house paint Use semi gloss on home its a better water barrier . They now make a primer that's colored in a way as to make sure you have a good first coat. When the primer is same color as house paint its hard to tell how if the coats are even . make sure the home is rolled not sprayed. this is my best advice ad a retired painter now you just have to find good labor .

Call Paul at Hue Got It Painting...
Early in life, I built a company with over 2,000 home improvement franchises - so I know great versus good quality craftsmanship. I still consult for some of the biggest home improvement contractors in the US (none locally). If you are not fussy about quality - you don't need him. If you are - get a quote! 352 638 4441

Once we found a house color we liked we contacted TV to get the paint code used and then also confirmed the paint code and name with Florida Paint who supplies the builder for, I believe, all new home construction. We then contacted Investment Painting Contractors (TOTV sponsor) 352-446-7334 to get onto their schedule. They are very much in demand because they are known for their very high quality work and they use the best grade of Sherwin Williams paint. While we were waiting for the job to start we submitted our request for the color change to the ARC and were approved. Very satisfied with their work and they were able to match the paint color perfectly.

I used Prestige Design Painting - Eli Abrego 352-255-6462. Just finishing today. I can't believe the attention to detail. They removed the downspouts and light fixtures. Replaced bad weather stripping. Painted soffits. Painted faded door handles and light fixtures so they look like the original color (black and bronze). He really wants the house to look perfect. I was happy with the price too.

Eli was recommended to me by Jimmy Jones, a handyman that has done some carpentry for me. Another perfectionist.

My neighbors want to use Eli too after watching him work. He usually comes with a crew of 2 or 3.

A Steve Kling representative came out to give me an estimate. Spent an hour making notes. Said he would get back the next day but I never heard from him. Maybe the house was too big - 5000 ft2 + RV garage. He also wanted Romac to come out and replace weather stripping and the faded hardware.

I like to add one comment I failed to mention previously. Three days before Oscar painted our home, he had a worker come by and power-wash the entire outside of our home. The soffits and gutters looked brand new when they were done.

When Oscar's crew arrived the first thing they did was remove all the downspouts and patched all the cracks in the stucco and then rolled on two coats of Sherwin Williams best paint.

Since they are so busy, you have probably seen his trucks around.

Angry We're too late to EVER change the color of our CYV!

Love your green color also. It's exactly the color I would choose if I could change from they gray color that all 110 of our neighbors have. Unfortunately, we would need about 83 neighbors to agree to a color palette addition - which is the closest thing to impossible that I can imagine. Nothing else in any governing agency ever needs 75% agreement! It's an insurmountable outrage! Between snowbirds, rentals and vacant homes for sale it often amounts to more than the number needed to prevent approval - even IF you could get the remaining neighbors to agree!

We have 80 villas built in 2011, and one of my neighbors got the petition finished and submitted in 2015. Oddly enough, gray is one of the new colors and we have about 6 homes choose gray, 7 have chosen green, 9 have chosen cream, and about 28 have chosen some form of tan. The remaining homes are the original yellowish color. Three of my neighbors repainted but stuck with the original color. However, one of those after seeing the dramatic change in mine, went ahead and hired Oscar and had theirs repainted in a new color and even though it had been painted the year before.

Steve Kling. Excellent. How's this for service. Several years ago, Egner's power washed pool deck area with their normal solution, which we did not realize contained bleach and caused the paint to crack over a large area. Kling painted the whole area again, no charge.
