HOUSE PAINTING · SORRENTO, FL
Sorrento is unincorporated East Lake County: spread-out lots, plenty of trees, and long humid summers that are hard on paint. We wash, repair and repaint so it lasts.
SORRENTO HOMES
Lake County describes Mt. Plymouth-Sorrento as an unincorporated community in East Lake County, on the edge of the Wekiva Protection Area. The county set up a community redevelopment area there in 2012.
County planning keeps the Mount Plymouth-Sorrento Neighborhood category to about 2 homes per net acre, and the redevelopment report describes the older areas as low-density residential and agricultural land. More yard and more trees usually mean more shade on the walls.
Census Bureau estimates for the small Sorrento census area count both detached single-family homes and manufactured homes. The sample is small, so treat the numbers as a rough picture rather than an exact count.
PAINT AND SORRENTO WEATHER
Orlando International's 1991-2020 normals, the closest official set, show about 51 inches of rain a year and a July average high of 92 degrees. Summer jobs get planned around the afternoon storms.
Sherwin-Williams rates Duration Exterior down to 35°F, but between 35 and 45 degrees the recoat wait stretches to 24 to 48 hours. On a cool morning the schedule slows down to match.
Building an addition? Sherwin-Williams says new stucco needs at least 30 days to cure before painting, and Benjamin Moore gives new masonry the same 30 days.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Yes. We paint homes across Sorrento and the Mount Plymouth area, plus interiors, cabinets, pressure washing, paver sealing and wood repair.
Most of the exterior repaints we do land between $4,000 and $6,000. Size, stories, how much prep and repair the house needs, and the paint system all move it. You get a written estimate after we walk the house, and it's free.
Lake County's Office of Building Services lists painting as residential work that's exempt from permits. HOA or deed rules can still apply, so check those before you pick a color.
Shade keeps walls damp longer, and damp walls grow mildew. We soft wash first and recommend a mildew-resistant exterior coating.
At least 30 days, according to Sherwin-Williams. Fresh stucco is too alkaline for paint to hold, so it needs that cure time or a primer made for high-pH masonry.
We will walk every elevation, find the rot and the failing caulk, and give you a written number. No pressure, no pushy follow-up, no charge.
