    On today's episode of Modern Builds I'll be showing you how to paint a stucco house with an airless sprayer. I shared as many painting tips and tricks as I've got, along with a few of my mistakes to learn from along the way. As a design concept I decided to go completely monochromatic and "color block" the house flat white. This is pretty common in commercial and high end architecture but stands out a little bit in some more traditional neighborhoods... I like that!

    Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.

    Hey Mike! Do not remove the trees, they look just fine! Besides, you should be adding more of them and make the whole place a little more cooler

      I'd move them a bit more far away from the house. There they're too claustrophobic. Also, I'd plant waaaay more of them in two rows to create a nice pathway to the house.

    My father was a painter. The best and longest lasting paint job is either with a brush or roller.
    The condo I live in hires a painting contractor and they do the same steps you did. They have to redo the job every so many years, like about 5 years. My son's neighbor hired a painting contractor who did the same thing like you did. His paint job lasted about two years. My son followed my advice and rolled his house. It's been 12 years now.
    My previous two houses that I bought, I rolled/brushed the exteriors and the paint lasted well into the new homeowner's time.

    Love monochromatic houses, always my go to. Especially in small spaces, less visual clutter/eye friction. Mono interior walls, and ceilings in flat and an eggshells on the trim for durability. Farrow & Ball *skylight* is a dreamy multidimensional color wonder that Benjamin Moore will match and mix perfectly.

    Great idea to paint everything white. White is clean and timeless. The cypress make the place look like southern Calif. Why not finish the outside the way you want and then make a final decision. I think the pop of green they provide is also timeless...and how many homes out there have them? You could always paint your window frames black enamel and go for a clean modern farmhouse black/white theme. You're amazing!

    I'm pretty sure the nails coming through for the roofing is intended. Here in FL if your sheeting is less than 3/4", then the nails are required to penetrate all the way through. In some places if the sheeting is < 3/4" thick the nail must penetrate at least 1/8" past the sheeting.
    Chances are the roofers just choose nails long enough to always penetrate. My attic (prior to spray foam insulation) was just covered in exposed nails. I've hit my head and back on them more times than I can count.
    What I would do in your case is cover the joists with something like bead board (you can even get the plywood stuff). It will give it a nice finished look. Just make sure to account for any attic eave venting you might cover up.

    I think that the idea behind the earth tones in the 50s, 60s and 70s was to blend into the natural setting (as you pointed out). but times change and tastes change. also, it's only getting hotter now so your white exterior is eminently practical. your roof looks to be in good condition, but if you ever change it, you should consider something in a lighter color...but I'm guessing that you will be putting solar up there well before that

When I got back he had finished, and had painted my refrigerator blue to match the wall color.
