Painters in Irving, Texas
House Painters in Irving, TX
Stucco, HOA palettes and a lot of exterior trim. Irving splits between the stucco-and-tile developments out at Las Colinas and Valley Ranch, and the older 1960s and 70s stock closer to Old Town. The first group is about stucco repair and HOA approvals; the second is about wood.
On Las Colinas and Hackberry Creek elevations the cracks at window corners are frame movement, not coating failure, so they get opened and patched with a compatible mix rather than bridged with caulk. Those neighborhoods also tend to have architectural review, so we prepare the color submittal and wait for approval before scheduling.

What painting costs in Irving
Irving has two housing stocks and two price structures: Las Colinas and Valley Ranch stucco and HOA palettes, where the work is crack repair and elastomeric detail, and older central Irving brick with wood trim and fascia. Two-story entries and stair walls add scaffold time on interiors.
| Exterior repaint | $3,500–7,000 for a typical one- or two-story home with siding and trim; $7,000–11,000 when brick is painted too. About $1–3 per square foot of wall. Height, stucco and the amount of prep move it most. |
|---|---|
| Interior | $500–800 for a bedroom and $700–1,200 for a living room, walls only; most whole-home interiors $6,000–12,000. Ceilings add $150–500 and trim $100–200 per room. Tall ceilings and heavy millwork push a room up. |
| Cabinets | $85–125 per door or drawer front; $2,500–6,500 for a full kitchen; islands $1,500–3,000. Door count and the finish system. Refacing usually runs about double a repaint. |
| Brick and limewash | $4,000–5,500 for a one-story painted brick home, $7,000–11,000 for two stories. Limewash and mineral finishes typically add 15–30% over conventional masonry paint. |
| Popcorn ceilings | $1–2 per square foot to remove, plus repainting the new smooth ceiling. A ceiling from before 1980 is lab-tested first, about $25–75 a sample. A positive test changes the job: the texture comes down under asbestos-safe practices, which DFW guides put at $5–10 per square foot. |
| Drywall repair | $50–75 per small hole, or $200–300 for a visit of small repairs; a single larger patch $240–500 in Dallas and Fort Worth. Priced by the patch and the texture around it. Blending a knockdown or orange peel so the repair disappears takes longer than the patch itself. |
| Retexturing | $1–2 per square foot for orange peel, $1.25–2.50 for knockdown, $1.50–3 for skip trowel; a smooth skim coat about $1–1.30. Skim-coating to smooth is the slow one, because it is several thin coats sanded between, and it is what most popcorn removals end with. |
Ranges are drawn from published Dallas–Fort Worth cost guides and local price guides dated 2022 to 2026, not from our own price list. They describe the market; your number comes from a measured walkthrough and a written scope.

Painting under an HOA in Irving
Las Colinas and Valley Ranch associations generally review exterior colors, and stucco communities often publish a palette. The request usually asks for the colors by code and which elevations and trim they go on. Older central Irving neighborhoods mostly have no review step. We confirm which applies before the quote is final and schedule exterior work for after any written approval. Your governing documents control.
- Las Colinas Association. Self-managed, with its own architectural control staff. The 2026 guidelines require plans to be submitted before any exterior painting, and a change of exterior paint or stain color is on the list of items that need approval. The association says reviews take one to six weeks, with the decision emailed within a business day of the committee meeting.
- Valley Ranch Master Association. Managed by CCMC. The design guidelines require ARC approval of all exterior colors before painting, but repainting in the same previously approved colors does not need approval. Colors are to be conservative and natural, finishes satin except high gloss on shutters, entry doors and metal, and painted brick is permitted once the color is approved. The ARC meets about every two weeks with applications due eight days before, approvals lapse after 180 days, and a pre-approved paint color catalog is published.
The City of Irving does not require a permit for cosmetic work such as painting.
Texas law shapes the process without setting the colors. Under Property Code §209.00505, an association with more than 40 lots that turns down an architectural application must say so in writing, explain why and what would need to change, and tell you that you can ask for a hearing before the board within 30 days, which the board must then hold within 30 days. The statute sets no deadline for the decision itself, so any “deemed approved after 20 or 30 days” clock comes from the neighborhood’s own declaration. Paint color is not one of the items Texas shields from association rules, so the governing documents control.
Irving neighborhoods we paint in
Las Colinas
Stucco elevations and association palettes. Hairline stucco cracks are movement, not coating failure; they are repaired and bridged before the color goes on, and the HOA step comes first.
Valley Ranch
Two-story brick-and-siding houses with tall entries. Interiors are priced on stair walls and ceiling height; exteriors on trim, fascia and siding sections.
Old Town and central Irving
Older brick with wood trim and fascia. Soft wood is replaced before paint, and most of these streets have no association review.

Before you hire
Painting in Irving — common questions
Can the two-story entry be done at the same time as the rest?
Yes, and it should be. Scaffolding once for the whole envelope costs less than a ground-floor job now and a return visit for the high work, and it is one disruption instead of two.
There are cracks in our stucco. Will painting fix them?
Painting over them will hide them for a season. They get opened and patched with a compatible stucco mix and primed first — and if the framing behind one is still moving, we will tell you it may reappear rather than promise otherwise.
Do maple cabinets need the grain filled?
No — maple is tight-grained and takes a smooth painted finish without it. That is oak’s problem. Maple does need thorough de-glossing so the primer bonds to the factory lacquer.
We have stucco rather than brick. Is it the same job?
No. Stucco cracks are usually frame movement and need opening, patching with a compatible mix and priming first. Bridging them with caulk and coating over holds for a season and then splits again.
