What Tempe walls and paint go through
Tempe's older core includes Maple-Ash, made up of the Gage Addition (1909), Park Tract (1924) and College View (1945). Original block-and-stucco walls and wood trim there have been painted many times.
Hudson Manor is one of the subdivisions where most houses were built between 1950 and 1960. Those ranch walls often need patching before any coating.
Paved surroundings hold heat into the evening, which stresses paint film and caulk. We choose heat-rated, reflective products by default.
Parts of the Maple-Ash area have seen historic preservation effort. If your home is in or near a historic area, we check what applies before you commit to a color change.
