Home Cool Paint & Stucco
Cool paint and cool stucco are specially formulated exterior coatings that reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than traditional finishes. These materials help lower your home’s surface temperature and reduce the amount of heat transferred indoors—keeping your home cooler and more energy-efficient.
A typical installation involves:
Preparation of exterior surfaces, including cleaning and repairs
Application of solar-reflective cool paint or cool stucco that meets Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) standards
Optional insulated base coats for additional energy savings
Final finish coats in your choice of color (yes—even darker colors can be reflective with cool coatings!)
Inspection for local compliance, if part of a permitted energy upgrade project
In sun-drenched areas like the San Fernando Valley, cool coatings can:
Lower wall surface temps by up to 40°F
Reduce indoor cooling loads and A/C usage by up to 20%
Help meet L.A. Green Building Code standards
Qualify for rebates through programs like LADWP or SoCalREN
Extend the life of your home’s exterior by reducing thermal stress and UV damage
